### "Awesome project management tool!"

January 31, 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.

### "Construction Company Backbone"

September 15, 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.

Alternatives considered

[Procore](https://www.capterra.com/p/56250/Procore/)[Basecamp](https://www.capterra.com/p/56808/Basecamp/)

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

When we were evaluating tools, we looked closely at both Basecamp and Procore. Basecamp is good for basic task management, but it felt too limited for the complexity of construction projects—we needed more than just to-do lists and simple messaging. Procore, on the other hand, is powerful but comes with a steep learning curve and a price tag that didn’t make sense for our needs. Freedcamp struck the right balance. It gives us accountability tools like task assignments, milestones, and issue tracking, but also adds features like discussions, a Wiki, and time tracking without being overly complicated or expensive. It was the best fit for how we actually work day to day.

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

March 7, 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.

Response from Freedcamp

March 8, 2018

We think that each task can be only in progress, not in progress or completed but true - not in progress task can have a clarification sub-status like 'waiting for a feedback' or 'postponed' and we do consider adding sub-statuses in the future. Things like Testing, Review - task lusts can be used to handle. task in Testing task list will still be in progress, not started or completed because if you set it as status you will never know if actual testing phase not started, in progress or completed. To handle this in Kanban view we plan to allow to switch Kanban view to show columns as task lists in addition to by status available now. Hope it helps what is planned and what to expect. Cheers, Igor

### "Freedcamp for Small Nonprofit Teams"

March 5, 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.

### "Love Freedcamp"

April 7, 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 18, 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.

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

April 9, 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.

We like how easy it is to set up projects, tasks, time tracking, Slack integration, comments, and more. It's really got everything our small nonprofit needs. We used Asana for a while and it was good, but some staff found it clunky. Freedcamp is not clunky at all!

Freedcamp has helped Respek Indonesia Siaga manage multiple community projects with clear workflows, task assignments, and deadlines. It’s an excellent solution for nonprofit collaboration and team productivity.

Pros

Freedcamp’s simple interface and task features make it easy for our nonprofit team to stay organized and efficient.

Cons

### "Extraordinary Value, Flexibility, Features, Support, UI/UX that keeps improving "

July 30, 2020

5.0

My consulting, ops and support support teams (from 3 to 20) have been using Freedcamp since 2017. Started with the free version which was met earlier requirements and quickly upgraded to the Business Plan. The platform has consistently met/exceeded my requirements for the wide range of use cases that my company encounters as we help internal and external clients with all aspects of business and product launches, turn-arounds, and M&As. The Freedcamp leadership, dev and support teams have always been responsive, they listen closely to the users, meet promised release dates and quickly roll out fixes and improvements that match or are better than competing platforms and customer feedback/requests

Pros

Features and Functions that match or greatly improve upon other all the popular platforms I've used Clean, customizable, well designed and easy to learn and use UI / UX Very easy to deploy, onboard new users (internal teams, distributed workgroups, and contractors and clients) Powerful and flexible for both experienced users & project managers (agile and waterfall) and for people with limited to no tech skills Helpful and intuitive dashboard, reporting, tracking, drill downs, integrations with popular workgroup and collaboration platforms including Microsoft, Google, Dropbox, etc Fast and continuous platform improvements Cost/Benefit/Feature set offers a much better value than other platform I've used or vetted

Cons

The CRM module is functional and usable, and may meet the needs of organizations that are seeking a single platform for project management, support, and customer contact management - but it's not as mature or feature-rich as many popular stand-alone 3rd party CRMs.

My teams typically work across Project Management platforms with a wide variety of complex external business situations, cultures, users, skills and competencies, etc - and subsequently need to manage and adapt internal workflows with external customer. Freedcamp has been the easiest to use and adapt to every situation and user as we work simultaneously in customer deployments of Asana, Basecamp, Excel spreadsheets, Slack, Teams, or the freemium platform de jour. I have often heard my team say "why can't I do \[insert function, use case or feature\] in XYZ Platform like I can do in Freedcamp?

### "A fantastic product for freelancers -- the software equivalent of a virtual assistant"

August 7, 2020

5.0

For a free product that I deployed with a minimal learning curve, I am blown away by the number of features offered, and the flexibility that lets me match the software to my business needs.

Pros

As a freelance editor, it's up to me to manage all aspects of my business for numerous clients. It is essential that I set deadlines and track my time per task in an orderly and centralized manner so nothing slips through the cracks. Freedcamp gives me these capabilities and more, plus peace of mind.

Cons

As a one-person business, I don't use all the bells and whistles. But the features I do deploy are user-friendly. The cons are few for me. The only quibble that might be worth mentioning relates to the time tracking feature. I can sort the time records that I create in many ways (e.g., status, alphabetical, amount of time). I like to sort by the date of the time record. But what I'd really love to do—and can't—is have a second-level sort feature so that, within a given date, I can sort the record alphabetically. It's a tiny quibble that I hesitate even to mention here.

### "Freedcamp is a great project management tool that allows teams to collaborate."

July 30, 2020

5.0

Overall Freedcamp is great tool for project management.

Pros

Using the entry-level (free) set up covers a lot of needs for most uses. This allows you to use the software and learn what works and doesn't for your team and fully gauge the need for paid services.

Cons

Expanding their add-ons to a variety of applications is probably the biggest issue. Though not a huge blocker, it opens up the application to be used by more companies already mid-stride in their business decisions. For example, Freshbooks integrates with the invoicing application but it takes some work to get Quickbooks to do so.

### "Almost perfect, but not quite"

July 30, 2020

4.0

Pros

When you get down to it, it is pretty simple. I've had to spend more time than i prefer on setup. Wish there was a service for that piece.

Cons

It has been a beast to implement and drive users to the tool. The lag in updates hurts us as times when new things are added, we have to wait a solid 2-3 min before they show up for the team. This lag is just enough time for "i don't see it on my freedcamp" emails. I also wish there was a better way to limit view to team members. This is what is on your plate today, period.

August 7, 2020

A great product and fits all budgets with basic functionality kept free. And the power users can purchase advanced functionality as paid plugins

Pros

Freed camps Task management is very powerful. The free version doesn't have sub tasks option but it can be bought as a paid plugin. Also has time logging for developers and milestones which are very critical in project managements. The best part is these also are available in free version.

Cons

The time log export is a bit clumsy and needs some updates. The filters don't always work. At least on my Mac.

December 19, 2024

5.0

To summarize, Freedcamp is the optimal tool for the small distributed teams who don't want to complicate their processes. It helps a lot to organize your work and tasks among the people.

Pros

1\. Simple to use in comparison to other tools like Jira or Rally. 2. Free license to use for the small teams. 3. Ability to use plugins like TimeTracker.

Cons

Couple of years ago I used mobile version of Freedcamp, it had bugs and reduced functionality. Don't know what's up now with the application. I expect it to be improved as well as I noticed it for the Desktop/Browser version.

### "A good old friend"

November 26, 2023

5.0

Suppose you want a simple task and project manager with affordable price options, with a free tier that will surely be enough to try and get to know the application. In that case, Freedcamp is undoubtedly an excellent option. Once you are sure that this product is for you, and you want to manage your business projects with this tool, I suggest you opt for the Business plan. In this plan you will see that the functionalities to which you will have access give you everything you need to manage your projects and tasks in the best way, whether alone or as a team.

Pros

It's almost been seven years since I first used Freedcamp. From the first moment, it became one of my favorite applications for task and project management, especially when I started a project in collaboration with a partner. Among its hooks was its attractive value per user and its kind free tier. It stood out for being one of the first applications that did not cut the wings of any user who wanted to try practically all its functions for nothing in return, without the odious need to include credit card information. Being 2023, Freedcamp has included new features, improved its user interface, and continues to offer prices that are affordable to any user. The option to have “collaborators” who can view and comment on your projects is one of the best free features a company can have available when managing projects.

Cons

Freedcamp is an application for task and project management that will surely be useful and easy for any user, especially those just getting to know these types of applications. However, in my case, Freedcamp is my secondary project manager, which I use weekly for side projects to my main job. This is mainly due to its add-on system. While this system works very well to keep the application simple and only show the functions you want to use, activating and deactivating modules is something I prefer not to do in these types of applications.

### "Freedcamp for NGOs"

July 16, 2024

4.0

During the several years of use we've had different users of Freedcamp and we realized that a project management platform can do a lot for you if the initial data you enter is of a good enough quality. We had very good and very bad users, so we would summarize that a platform is only as good as the user is. We also need to admit that we have not yet exploited all of the possibilities that Freedcamp offers.

Pros

We carry out several and very different projects and Freedcamp enables us to track the progress of these projects through several years of their execution. It is very valuable to us that we can split a single task into several tasks and allocate these subtasks to different users and set different deadlines, but at the same time we have everything in one place. It also gives us a good and quick overview on project's progress. We very much like the filtering option in calendar view, because we can get a good monthly overview of tasks in one or several projects and/or people assigned to them. The platform has also showed us its value when HR changes occurred, because it has been a good tool during the onboarding processes and enabled us to introduce our ongoing projects to new employees faster. We also like the automated notifications about the approaching deadlines (very useful!) and that each user can edit their notifications' settings and adjust them for their specific use (for example, a user can have full notifications in one project and almost none in another).

Cons

Some of our employees stated that for them Freedcamp is not intuitive and user-friendly enough. As we have many different projects, we cannot use project templates, therefore the initial set up of a project and its tasks requires quite some time investment. As with any other new tool, it takes some time to learn how to use it. It would be great if we could set up different font sizes and colors for tasks and subtasks, in order to divide them better and make the project overview more appealing to a profile of people with more artistic and creative tendencies.

Hi Urša Thanks for the review! Let me address some cons: - you should still be able to create projects (keep them archived) and create task lists that you can copy from there to new projects to workaround feature. - You can use emojis in task and task list tiles - many of our customers do use them

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

April 10, 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.

### "Excellent project management features and customer support."

October 4, 2021

5.0

Pros

Freedcamp is simply a pleasure to use, bringing projects to life. Projects can be managed in one place, without having to jump between multiple disconnected programs. From Todo/Task lists, Milestones, Time Tracking, Invoicing, the ability to Invite other users into a project and so much more. It's constantly evolving too, with features regularly being added and updated. Customer support is super responsive, which is a standout feature in its own right.

Cons

It's difficult to find a negative to be honest but I guess it would be that that it's updated quite regularly (via regular scheduled slots), which creates an access issue for me personally sometimes. The developers do choose quiet times to do this however since I'm in the UK (and they aren't), due to the time difference I often find myself unable to use it on a Saturday morning whilst updates are being pushed. The slight inconvenience is still a small price to pay for what has become one of my favourite programs.

### "Very good task manager for entrepreneurs"

December 29, 2018

4.0

In general it is the best application to handle tasks, work teams and projects if you are an entrepreneur. I stopped using it because I needed some features like custom statuses and custom labels. Unfortunately they added them when I had already moved to another application

Pros

I used this software for more than 4 years and was in love since its first use. If you are looking for a simple task manager to keep track of all your pending tasks, Freedcamp is undoubtedly your best option. You can manage your tasks by lists and projects, have as many projects as you want, even in its free version, manage users at your whim, filters, export tasks or entire projects. Freedcamp has instant synchronization with Google Calendar and now they added the integration feature with Zapier or you can develop your own API connection.

Cons

Something I do not like is the invoice manager, missing features that do have others, there is no continuity in the user interface, some features were added over time and look different and finally the mobile application, it still needs a lot of work.

### "Great project management software for starters "

April 4, 2024

5.0

I've been using it for more than 7 years and I can't complain, it has been my favorite project management system so far.

Pros

It's a very useful and easy-to-learn system, my team learned all the basics in probably 2 days, so the learning curve is short.

Cons

The app needs a little more work to be as useful as the online system.

### "Easy setup - Works great - Very responsive to end user suggestions!"

June 25, 2020

5.0

I needed an alternative to SharePoint - Freedcamp is a cloud based PM software product used by many big names, so I tried it. Works great - LOVE the ability for outside consultant and team member collaboration without the ongoing IT hassles of SharePoint permissions. Runs on your phone! or really any device, so allows file access from anywhere.

Pros

Very easy to use - You'll be up and running in minutes Monthly invoicing and account information readily available Very responsive to end user requests Real tech support - by the folks who write the code sometimes Great value for the money Cloud data storage plus backups EASY to collaborate with folks from outside your organization without IT permission nightmares. Runs on your phone - nice feature.

Cons

User interface is improving with time - latest UI upgrade is a nice improvement I administer the program and projects so not sure how the more limited user interaction is Project templates are good once developed - some sample project templates might help new users get started faster

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

Easier to setup and administer for non-IT folks - data is stored in the cloud, and backed up regularly. Very easy to use - currently have 18-19 users collaborating on projects (outside consultants) without any issues. Time saver!
