About
GForge is an all-in-one DevOps and project management platform that combines issue tracking, Git and SVN repositories, wiki documentation, team chat, and CI/CD in a single system. It can be deployed as SaaS, self-hosted, or in an air-gapped on-premise environment, with REST API access for integrations and automation.
The pricing page states a free on-premise edition for up to 5 active users with unlimited public projects and unlimited private projects, plus full functionality and no time limits or credit card requirement. The SaaS offering starts at $6 per user per month and includes the first 5 users free; open source teams are described as free forever.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is unusually strong for a capped offer: it includes full functionality, no time limit, and no credit card, with the main limit being up to 5 active users. The cheapest paid SaaS plan starts at $6 per user per month, so 5 users of equivalent capability would be worth about $30/month; after accounting for the user cap, the free tier is worth about $18/month.
