### "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.

### "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.

### "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.

### "Freedcamp is great"

February 10, 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.

### "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!

### "Free Version is Very Useful"

June 24, 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.

### "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.

### "An well structured time saver that helps run projects efficiently."

June 25, 2020

5.0

I loved the clarity of thinking that Freedcamp offers through its very clean interface. Compared to a support system I was previously using Freedcamp is a breath of fresh air and I could not imagine running projects without it now. I would also add that the entry level version is totally free and comes with Unlimited Projects, Tasks, Storage, and Users.

Pros

Freedcamp provides a very scalable solution for anyone that needs to increase their productivity through improved project management. Initially I used Freedcamp for one client and one detailed project. Then it grew to one client with multiple in-depth projects, then it grew to multiple clients with multiple projects. The way Freedcamp is designed it handled this growth easily, and as an end user the process was very straight forward and instinctive without the need to refer to any documentation at all.

Cons

Advanced use of Freedcamp would involve the use of widgets which are mostly available to power users. I found widget implementation to be a little confusing at first and perhaps the least developed aspect of Freedcamp. This may be down to my lack of experience in this area and I perhaps need to checkout the knowledgebase articles in this area.

### "Project Management That's Not a Project to Manage"

July 30, 2020

4.0

Pros

Freedcamp has been indispensable to our company, both in our nascent and more developed business stages. It's interface is straightforward, and its robust feature set allowed us to utilize new tools as our business grew and demanded more. Key among those was a built-in time tracker that allowed us to better and more accurately quote projects. Its free features were sufficient for our needs in the beginning, but the price point for upgrading to Business/Enterprise level was also reasonable, especially compared to similar platforms. We were also able to start using it "out of the box" rather than some other platforms we tried out, where merely setting everything up was an investment of time and resources we, as a small business, just didn't have.

Cons

The mobile app is not as robust as the browser-based application, but the company has been making improvements on that front.

### "Freedcamp - best free and easy to use tool for project management"

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.

### "Freedcamp 4 the win!"

November 18, 2024

5.0

Freedcamp has been a valuable tool for organizing and managing my projects. It’s easy to use, affordable, and robust enough to handle team collaboration. While there are some areas for improvement, especially with the mobile app and integrations, the platform’s benefits outweigh its drawbacks. It has significantly improved our productivity and coordination as a remote team.

Pros

Freedcamp's interface is user-friendly and offers a wide range of features that cater to project management needs. I particularly liked the ability to create task lists, collaborate with team members, and track progress in real time. The calendar integration and notifications are excellent for staying on top of deadlines. Additionally, the platform provides a lot of functionality even with its free plan, making it accessible for startups and nonprofits like mine.

Cons

The mobile app could use some improvements in terms of responsiveness and navigation. Occasionally, there’s a slight lag when switching between projects, and some features feel more polished on the desktop version compared to mobile. Integrations with other tools are somewhat limited unless you’re on a higher-tier plan.

### "Great Value and Very Easy to Use"

November 8, 2024

5.0

Freedcamp has been an invaluable tool in helping manage projects. With its intuitive user interface and competitive pricing, we've been able to integrate the software seemlessly into our workflow. There has been a noticeble increase in productivity since we introduced the software to our group.

Pros

Freedcamp has a very intuitive UI setup. It is very easy to assign tasks to specific individuals and set goals for deadlines. The task tracking feature is also very helpful in allowing project leads to easily get a bigger picture of the progress being made. Freedcamp support also has a very quick turnaround response time, which is very helpful for resolving any issues.

Cons

There are some more advanced project tracking features that are more confusing, but these don't affect the usability of the basic and most important functions.

My experience has been very user friendly. I'm not especially tech savvy, and I find that Freedcamp does not require you to be tech savvy.

Cons

So far for what I use it for I haven't come across anything that I can say I dislike.

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

July 1, 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.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

Please see above comments. Basically, it was a nice balance between complexity and ease of use and it is also considerably cheaper to scale up to more features or more users than the alternatives.

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

January 12, 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.

### "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.

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.

### "Freedcamp works for my business"

August 5, 2020

Overall I think Freedcamp is good for managing the design and marketing projects that I do for clients. It allows me to keep files, discussions, and other details related to the project in one place.

Pros

I like that I can do a variety of things in one place. I can exchange files with clients or subcontractors. I can start discussions with clients or subcontractors. Or I can use the discussion feature to make notes for myself. I like the timer feature where I can track the time spent on a project. I also like the tasks feature to keep track of what I need to do.

Cons

There are certain things I would like to do in the software, but I am not sure how to do them. I don't know if they are possible, or perhaps I need more training to understand how to accomplish them. One thing is I would like to hide the archived projects, so I don't have to scroll through them every time I am trying to select a project.

### "Freedcamp Keeps Me Organized and Helps Me Get Everything Done"

August 7, 2020

5.0

Designing and Developing websites involves hundreds of tasks that must be completed for every site. The ability to create templates for this really cuts down on my workload. Clients are sometimes resistant to using it because they're not familiar with it but it's so much better than email chains.

Pros

The ability to create templates for repetitive tasks like developing and launching websites and marketing campaigns. Being able to let clients follow progress and provide feedback while also leaving some discussions and procedures behind the scenes. Being billed based on participation so I don't have to go in and shut clients and contractors accounts on and off is a huge time saver.

Cons

I think the image/file uploading feature could be improved. It isn't organized well and will often name a pasted image the same name as a previously uploaded image. We'd like to be able to easily include video in the process. It's possible now but a dedicated training area would be nice.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

At the time, it was price.
