Redmine vs Fibery
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Redmine and Fibery — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Redmine vs Fibery: at a glance
What is Redmine?
Redmine patches three security flaws in 7.0.2 and gives admins a page listing every webhook.
Redmine 7.0.2 and 6.1.5 shipped at the end of September with three security fixes: private issue subjects exposed through the REST API, private project names and role assignments exposed through group memberships, and a DOM-based XSS on clipboard paste. Rails moves to 8.1.4 and 7.2.4 respectively. The 7.0 line also gets a webhook administration page, SVG icon caching and a fix for UI freezes on very large custom fields.
What is Fibery?
Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.
Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.

Redmine

◆ Current state
Redmine 7.0.2 and 6.1.5 shipped at the end of September with three security fixes: private issue subjects exposed through the REST API, private project names and role assignments exposed through group memberships, and a DOM-based XSS on clipboard paste. Rails moves to 8.1.4 and 7.2.4 respectively. The 7.0 line also gets a webhook administration page, SVG icon caching and a fix for UI freezes on very large custom fields.
◆ Where it's heading
The security cadence holds, and the two API leaks continue a run of defects where private data escapes through an include or list path. The 7.0 branch keeps absorbing polish around its headline webhook feature rather than adding new capability. This release names only the 7.0 and 6.1 series, where August's also covered 6.0.
◆ Prediction
Expect another coordinated security release on the same two-to-three-month rhythm, with continued webhook and performance work on 7.0. Whether 6.0 returns to the coordinated set is unclear from these entries.
Fibery
6.3PM
Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.
◆ Current state
Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.
◆ Where it's heading
Fibery alternates big AI releases (AI agent, Custom Apps, AI-built integrations) with polish weeks. Making MCP setup a first-class setting shows it expects outside agents to work in Fibery as much as its own.
◆ Prediction
The pricing decision on AI Connectors is due by year end; MCP-based connector creation is still the open item from October.
