### "Working with the free tier"

September 4, 2026

5.0

Very positive experience, especially bearing in mind the free option is quite extensive. Would definitely recommend.

Pros

Free platform that allows one to create unlimited projects, assign unlimited tasks to each project, as well as track status of tasks.

Cons

It can be tricky to create sub-tasks using the free version, especially when compared to the free trial.

### "Freedcamp for Small Nonprofit Teams"

March 12, 2026

5.0

Our nonprofit's communications committee uses this to manage social campaigns, newsletter production, design tasks, and email marketing. We tried Trello but switched to Freedcamp — we liked the UI more and it felt like a better fit. Before this we relied on email threads and Google Docs, which made it hard to stay organized. Good option for any small team that needs to stay on top of tasks without a lot of setup.

Pros

Very easy to get started with and intuitive to learn — our team picked it up right away. We can assign tasks, set due dates, and everyone knows what they're working on. We like being able to comment and attach files directly to tasks, and having separate boards for each area keeps everything from getting mixed together.

Cons

There really are no cons for a small team with our needs. A larger team may find it lacking in features.

### "Freedcamp is great"

February 18, 2026

5.0

Awesome, really took our company's workflow to a new level. We can stay on top of tasks and projects like we could not before.

Pros

The flexibility to assign tasks to a team and track it. The interface is simple and easy to use. Love the website

Cons

The mobile app could improve, does not work as easy as the website. Other than that I can not complain.

### "Awesome project management tool!"

February 11, 2026

4.0

Pros

What I like most about Freedcamp is how much functionality it offers without forcing upgrades. The free plan provides real project structure, task ownership, deadlines, and collaboration tools that allow our nonprofit to operate efficiently, stay accountable, and scale systems without adding financial strain.

Cons

One drawback is limited task visualization options. Calendar, timeline, and advanced task views would make things easier to see workloads, deadlines, and dependencies at a glance.

### "Freedcamp for Non-Profit for planning big yearly fundraiser"

January 22, 2026

5.0

Project Management Solution Review: Freedcamp for Service Club Events Hyannis Rotary Club's Experience with Freedcamp As Webmaster and IT Coordinator for the Hyannis Rotary Club, a service organization with over 100 years of community impact ( \[sensitive content hidden\]), I am pleased to share our experience implementing Freedcamp project management software. Our Event Since the late 1960s, our club has hosted an annual Home and Lifestyle Show as our primary fundraising initiative. This two-day event, held at our local high school, attracts between 3,000 and 5,000 visitors and features: Approximately 130 local vendor booths of various sizes Community and non-profit organization participation Educational workshops Food concessions Corporate sponsorship opportunities All proceeds support local community programs and initiatives. The Challenge Traditionally, event planning has been the responsibility of the President-Elect, a position that rotates annually. This structure created significant challenges in knowledge transfer between leaders, resulting in stress and potential gaps in continuity. Our reliance on spreadsheets for project management proved cumbersome and difficult for an event of this complexity. The Solution After extensive research into project management platforms, I selected Freedcamp for its comprehensive features and great non-profit pricing. I soon realized that we would need the Business Plan tier which provides many features including: Task lists and sub-tasks Kanban boards Gantt charts Milestone tracking Time tracking Collaboration tools CRM and issue tracking and much more Experience so far Freedcamp generously provided a two-month free trial period, after which we plan to transition the paid subscription. This year, I configured our entire Home Show planning process within Freedcamp, running it parallel to our traditional methods to facilitate a smooth transition for next year's event. The learning curve proved manageable through hands-on exploration, and the platform's intuitive design made setup straightforward. When challenges arose, I successfully used AI assistance when needed. My Impressions and Recommendation While I continue to explore Freedcamp's full feature set, the improvement over our previous methods is substantial. I am confident the initial time investment in system setup will yield significant time savings and reduced stress for future event chairs. This will make the role more manageable and help us recruit future event chairs with confidence. I strongly encourage fellow Rotarians and other non-profit organizations managing complex events to consider Freedcamp. There are various subscription tiers to fit your needs. Jurgen Craig-Muller Webmaster/IT Coordinator Hyannis Rotary Club Hyannis, MA

Pros

As a Service Club hosting each year a big fundraising event, Freedcamp is very comprehensive (business plan) , great valuesfor you money as a non-profit, clean look, straightforward.

Cons

For our non-profit , hosting a big event , we needed the business plan otherwise no negatives that I can think of

### "Best Nonprofit Project Management System"

December 4, 2025

5.0

Pros

Freedcamp is an easy to use software and for us as a nonprofit, we really are small and need something affordable. Freedcamp checks all the boxes of a project management platform anyone can use.

Cons

I would love Freedcamp to have a strong chat feature, such as a Slack or a Discord so that most of the communication can occur in the project management system. Having that feature would really put it over the top.

### "Freedcamp Review"

December 4, 2025

5.0

The application makes tracking tasks, and productivity a breeze!The ease of customization, and collaboration amongst our team has been amazing. The daily email prompts make it impossible to miss out on any deadlines.

Pros

Love how easy it is to stay organized with the project files. Task assignment amongst team members has been a great way to passively communicate and delegate.

Cons

Can take a little bit to get used to the application and learn about all the customization pieces there are.

### "Not the most flexible tool on the market"

March 8, 2018

3.0

It helped us in our earlier stages of project management and team alignment

Pros

We used Freedcamp for a few months and it really helped us align our team's projects and tasks. Intuitivne and easy to use, it did the job it was supposed to do.

Cons

It's too basic. You cannot edit project phases - there are only 3 basic stages : to do, in progress, done. If your team is practicing scrum, you see the problem. I think it's a good tool to start with, but as your appetites and team's projects get more complex, it will become obsolete.

### "Construction Company Backbone"

September 19, 2025

5.0

My overall experience has been excellent. It’s become the backbone of how we manage projects, and I honestly don’t know how we’d stay as organized without it, because I sure know we weren't before we found it. It gives us structure, accountability, and a single place where everything lives—tasks, discussions, policies, and even issues that pop up. It’s not just software we use; it’s part of our daily workflow, and it has genuinely made us more efficient as a team.

Pros

What I really like about Freedcamp is how it keeps everyone accountable without making things complicated. The task assignments and milestone tracking give us a clear picture of who’s responsible for what, and the time tracking is simple but effective. The built-in discussions make a huge difference. we don’t lose important conversations in email anymore, everything stays tied to the project. I also like the Wiki feature because it gives us one place to store policies and project info that anyone on the team can pull up when they need it. The issue tracker is another big plus, it helps us log problems as they come up, assign them, and follow them through until they’re actually resolved. For me, it’s the mix of accountability, organization, and transparency all wrapped into an affordable price that makes Freedcamp stand out.

Cons

Honestly, there isn’t much I dislike about Freedcamp. Every tool we’ve tried has its quirks, but with Freedcamp I haven’t run into anything that feels like a real drawback. The features we use work the way we need them to.

### "Love Freedcamp"

April 9, 2025

5.0

Outstanding project management tool! Love it!

Pros

I am absolutely blown away by how Freedcamp has helped organize the Philadelphia Folk Festival and support the Philadelphia Folksong Society, especially given that it’s all managed by an incredible team of dedicated volunteers. Freedcamp has truly been a game-changer for streamlining the planning and coordination of such a large-scale, volunteer-run event. As a volunteer myself, I can honestly say that Freedcamp has made the entire process so much easier and more efficient. With its intuitive project management features, we can easily track tasks, communicate, and stay organized as we work together to bring the festival to life. The platform allows the festival’s volunteer team to manage everything all in one place. The ability to assign tasks, set deadlines, and share updates in real-time has made a huge difference in ensuring everything runs smoothly and on time. Freedcamp is especially valuable given the scale of the 62 year old Philadelphia Folk Festival. It helps manage tasks carried out by more than two thousand volunteers working in different areas, all with the shared goal of making the festival a success. Freedcamp’s user-friendly interface ensures that everyone, no matter their role or experience level, can stay on top of their responsibilities and contribute effectively. It’s helped create a seamless flow of communication, making collaboration between teams, artists, and staff effortless. Beyond the festival, Freedcamp also supports the Philadelphia Folksong Society’s year-round activities, allowing volunteers to stay organized and manage community events, and outreach efforts. The platform’s versatility is key in helping the Society continue its mission to nurture and celebrate folk music. For an event that relies entirely on volunteers, Freedcamp has been indispensable in turning what could be a chaotic and overwhelming task into a manageable and enjoyable process. It’s clear that Freedcamp’s project management tools have played a huge role in the continued success of the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the positive impact it has had on this beloved community event.

Cons

Could use a bit of work on navigation and gui

### "Best value, intuitive, highly recommend"

July 22, 2025

5.0

Overall, I found it intuitive, well organized and easy to build with teams. You def can’t beat the price! It’s free for the basic plan that has a lot of features. I upgraded to the pro plan to get the recurring event option. I still pay less/year than I did per month with other programs.

Pros

I found Freedcamp to be very intuitive and I love the outlook integration that allows me to save emails as comments to easily find my zoom links or info needed for a project without having to scour my inbox! I tried many other platforms that were much more costly but didn’t integrate as nicely before I settled on Freedcamp. It’s fast, easy, and keeps me organized for sure!

Cons

The mobile app has the basics but not as much as the desktop version. Although I don’t find that I need as much info when I’m on my phone. Def would still recommend.

### "Free Version is Very Useful"

June 25, 2025

5.0

Freedcamp has served a wonderful purpose of keeping project tasks organized and streamlining communication between teammates on specific tasks. It is so much better than a litany of email threads that get lost in the inbox!

Pros

The free version is incredibly robust. One of my business partners uses this to manage projects we work on together, and I was able to sign up for free and utilize everything I need. I would look into it further if I wasn't already invested in a different project management system.

Cons

Nothing worth mentioning. It took a bit to figure out the workflow, but that's true with any system.

### "Small business, big changes through Freedcamp"

April 10, 2025

5.0

Overall, it's allowed our small team a general and clear oversight on tasks, management and timelines- it's really helped us shape our next steps.

Pros

Ease of use- from setup moving forwards has meant that me and my team have been able to get moving with the projects fast, and transparently.

Cons

I'm using the free version and so actually what I'm missing is access to the Gantt charts, which are available on the Pro.

February 26, 2025

5.0

We just started using it, but it is far better than a shared spreadsheet and the reminders are great!

Pros

There is a surprising amount of functionality in the free there.

Cons

Honestly, for a free tool, there isn't anything wrong with it. Just, set your expectations appropriately.

### "Great (Unknown) Project Mgmt Tool"

October 13, 2020

5.0

I use Freedcamp every day and love it. It is general enough to be useful in any industry, but it has enough features and functionality to be useful for specific industries like mine (legal) that have a significant need for quality project mgmt software.

Pros

I can't say enough good things about Freedcamp plus it has so many features, it is hard to pick just the best one. I judge software, in part, on how much I enjoy using it. Is it useful, beneficial, or even fun to use? Or, does it leave me disappointed, confused, or frustrated. Freedcamp is a joy to use, and it helps me keep my projects on track as well as my coworkers. I am surprised it is not as well known as some competitors like Trello. It should be!

Cons

Freedcamp has some complexity in terms of customizing projects, groups, etc. It can be done but there is a slight learning curve.

### "Freedcamp is a hidden gem"

June 24, 2020

5.0

Mainly used for project, incident, and help desk management.

Pros

The dashboard, task list, and multi-project tracking are the best features of this software. Most often used features like task priority, progress, status, etc. are one-click or drag and drop. Easily see all tasks across one or more projects Task list summaries contain all the needed details one one line including status, progress, assignee, start, etc. I use the multi-project task view all the time as it is easy to sort and filter tasks on a variety of fields and save those filters. The UI is clean and uncluttered. Flexible email notification system for tracking status changes. Using the Lite/Minimalist Plan, but the Free plan has everything most organizations need for project and task management. The free plan blows away many other project and task management offerings.

Cons

Freedcamp has a very good multi-level and detailed user, role, and permission management structure, but the UI for managing this is more complicated than it needs to be.

### "Could not operate without this piece of software (now)"

August 13, 2020

5.0

As I mentioned earlier I could not operate my business with confidence without Freedcamp. It has become a integral part of my system and processes and I would recommend people give it a go. You will just have to familiarize yourself with the way it operates and once you have mastered that, the world is your oyster!

Pros

I purchased Freedcamp for the primary purpose of task management with my team. As the manager (and owner) of my business I recognise how critical systems are to be able to deliver consistent, quality results to clients. This is where Freedcamp shines. It helps me to stay on top of the recurring tasks that would normally be a manual process. Now I have one central location where I can take a birdseye view of all the tasks within my business and the easy to chat options within the Freedcamp platform facilitates team communication (much easier than having to go in and out of different pieces of software). I most definitely could not operate without Freedcamp in my day to day.

Cons

Getting everything started was a bit of a challenge in the beginning. I didn't find the options as intuitive as I would have liked. For example, creating a repeating task that occurred every week was not as easy as I have found in other software. This prompted me to reach out to support to discover the solution. To Freedcamp's credit support was quick and helpful and once I understood how to create a repeating task - my utilization of the software grew. The views in the dashboard can be a bit overwhelming at times - however this is customizable to your likes and dislikes.

### "unmissable tool in the chain."

October 21, 2020

5.0

Pros

For me the setup and getting used to it was a matter of seconds. I use other company supported systems that hold loads of info and are not easy accessible. with freedcamp I have a very clear view on the selected portion I want to manage. using it for yrs and keeps doing the job.

Cons

Allthough my experience is very good, I don't get that many colleages liking this software. the learning curve seems to be to high and usage of the tool usually drops dead in a few weeks, despite my effort of promoting and supporting it. for small project teams that only last a few weeks I don't even bring it up anymore.. although that would be the perfect situation to deply freedcamp.

December 3, 2024

5.0

Pros

"Freedcamp has been a game changer for us! The platform offers an impressive range of features that make managing projects, tasks, and collaboration a breeze. We were fortunate to receive an educational license, which has allowed us to fully leverage its capabilities. The seamless interface, combined with powerful tools, has helped us stay organized and boost productivity. We highly recommend Freedcamp to any team or business looking for an efficient project management solution!"

Cons

"One improvement we’d love to see is the ability to add comments to individual tasks within a task list, making it even easier to communicate and track progress on specific items."

### "A great balance of complexity and features but a bit of a learning curve"

July 9, 2020

4.0

Complex academic research projects with collaboration among Canadian and Tanzanian teams.

Pros

Web-based so easy to add on team members regardless of their hardware and experience. Flexible; can assign tasks, dates, priorities, people and can create several levels of sub-tasks. I like the integration with Dropbox so that files are easily available to all partners and access does not depend on Freedcamp itself. If I ever decide to stop using Freedcamp, I won't have valuable files locked into Freedcamp that I'll have to download before quiting. The support is superb; emails are answered quickly, often within hours and questions answered accurately and concisely without the usual boilerplate text verbiage that many software companies (esp. the big ones) like to indulge in. Switching between the list and Kanban views is very nice.

Cons

With complex projects, the webpages can begin to be very cluttered. As well, the default for finished tasks in to us a strike-out font as opposed to hiding or archiving them so one may see a page where the majority of text is struck out. reporting is rudimentary, basically a summary of tasks and a time period with little customization possible. I would like, for example, to be able to generate a report by individual team member of all of their assigned tasks and deadlines.

### "The Best Software We've Found"

January 13, 2023

5.0

I had to really search for "Cons" with this software. The free version is GENEROUS, and that's an understatement. Besides that, the design itself is intuitive. You can schedule a project in a general/high level format, or micromanage down to the last grain of sand. There are so many ways to manage your data. The collaboration in it is great, the task management is great, the project and user-management is great. The customer service even "undeleted" a project for me once. I have nothing bad to say about the system at all. We run a multi-freelancer design firm, and it handles everything we need with flawless efficiency.

Pros

Calendar view is exceptional, the ability to organize tasks, projects and subtasks keeps everything flowing as it should. Saved views allow for a customized experience. There are TONS of features available for free users, so it's definitely something that can grow with a startup.

Cons

The notification feature is annoying, by default it emails you about EVERYTHING (but you can shut it off), the homepage view is overwhelming, there's a bit of a learning curve and the password management doesn't feel like a safe space for passwords.

### "My Favorite Project Management Application"

March 12, 2018

5.0

Freedcamp is an amazing tool that works well in small businesses with no need for Program or Portfolio Management. Managing multiple projects at that level might not be an easy thing to do. I track a dozen projects at any given time, but my business structure is simple and does not rely on overly complex resource allocations or time management... I am a small shop managing projects as needed, keeping tabs on time spent for billing, and track of tasks to be completed. Freedcamp does provide a means of tracking milestones as well and fits the bill to my exact business needs. From what I can see with my daily use, Freedcamp can be cumbersome in environments with heavy development. It does not provide for defect management, testing, etc. It is a task board that can be customized to fit many needs, but definitely not an enterprise tool.

Pros

Freedcamp provides a flexible and effective pricing structure to fit any business needs, including a free account. The list of standard features alone are impressive: shared file management, tasks, discussion boards, calendar, message boards, unlimited users, projects and storage, even time tracking... a feature that is often considered a premium with other project management applications. It has a pleasant UI which makes it easy to use. Even the setup is easy. Most of all, it provides customization at each project level. The home page now offers a dashboard that displays specific information for each logged in user. Get a bird's eye view of your work, updates, projects and weekly calendar overview on a single page to start off your day. Want an even more customized experience? Head straight to the widgets and create your own dashboard tailored to your specific needs. Freedcamp also provides the ability to change the display of many pages to a different view (i.e. view projects as cards or as a list).

Cons

I use the free account because it provides me with all the features I find essential for my simple business structure. But, it would be nice if there was some sort of basic or simple reporting features at this level. Unfortunately, reporting is only part of their paid subscription. But their pricing is low enough that it is actually worth forking out the extra few bucks. For as long as I have been using Freedcamp, I have not yet encountered anything else I would consider a con, as it has provided me with a solution to all of my project management needs. I do not work with Program or Portfolio Management, so I am not sure if Freedcamp provides such level of management. Based on their features list, this does not appear to be something Freedcamp has been designed to do. But if Program or Portfolio Management is not a part of your environment, Freedcamp is definitely worth looking into.

### "The best free project management system I have used"

April 15, 2024

5.0

Pros

Creating projects, tasks and time tracking is a breeze with Freedcamp. Organising projects is even better; searching, sorting and filtering features are well thought out. I particularly like the Kanban settings when viewing each project because it gives me a quick, overall view. The Tasks Board saves me time when planning and prioritising to work on several projects on any given day; if I need to see which projects are close to the deadline, then it is just a click away with Saved Searches. I can't imagine being as organised and productive without Freedcamp.

Cons

I often have multiple task lists for a project. On the Tasks Board, this means the project name comes up several times, and I have to click on the project name to get to the task. But no matter which project name I click on, the tasks from the topmost task lists will always be displayed and I have to collapse the topmost task lists or scroll down to get to the tasks I want to work on.

### "Our Go-To Product Management Site"

November 16, 2018

5.0

Overall I love freedcamp, I've been using this software for two years now and it continues to upgrade the things I always have small issues with so I'm hoping to see them tune up the major flaws. I would suggest this to any group or team needing a software to effectively communicate and delegate work.

Pros

Freedcamp is my favorite collaboration service for multiple users which has helped me organize and collaborate effectively via the cloud. Freedcamp is my ideal software for staying in control of projects, resources, budget, and time. My favorite feature is getting notifications in real-time of updates, questions and or comments.

Cons

My least favorite thing about freedcamp is using the software via the app. I don't like the fact that I can't save images that are loaded up by collaborators or myself. The functions of the app aren't half as good as using the website.

### "Thank-you Freedcamp! You've stepped up our Volunteer Capacity!"

June 26, 2024

4.0

We are a committee under Ecology North that is dedicated to promoting safer, more inclusive streets, public transportation and electric vehicles. We have a variety of different types of volunteers. Some are very active and creating several projects every month, while others take more of a backseat, helping in research and different ways. We started to notice that when some people were writing lots of emails and updating people on a daily basis, other volunteers were starting to become a little overwhelmed. We didn't want our volunteers to get burnt out, and decided to do a little research into online project management and people management software that wouldn't scare people away. We were in luck! We found Freedcamp - and we saw that they offered a free version for Not-For-Profit entities such as us. It was extremely easy to set up, and within a day, we could start isolating tasks and after educating our volunteers on how to minimize notifications, we think that the environment of our committee started to benefit from this change. The people who love being active and need to organize events, programs and projects could go nuts within Freedcamp, and then very carefully we select the appropriate volunteers to join a project. We are still learning how to best use Freedcamp, but we feel confident that it will continue to provide us the support we need as our volunteer hub can ebb and flow. Thank-you Freedcamp for offering your services to the not-for-profit community free of charge. In a way, you become another one of our dedicated people, pushing and supporting, lifting up our cause so that we can keep doing what we do best.

Pros

I like the ease of creating a new project/task, assigning it to people, and the immediate interactions that the projects can produce.

Cons

It can sometimes become overwhelming when there are a lot of projects running, and people can't find which projects they are working on. So we are still working out these kinks to be a little more organized.
