### "Best project management tool for your wallet"

November 13, 2018

5.0

I depend on Freedcamp every day! I don't have a backup solution at this level of feature set and pricing. Their new iOS app is coming along. I hope they come up with a tablet/ipad version. I think there would be real power in using that over the smartphone.

Pros

Freedcamp can do a lot! I use it for: - managing tasks and projects - housing my internal knowledge base (wiki) - storing important files - communicating with teammates The sub-folders are great. I'm looking forward to their tagging feature that they are planning on releasing this quarter.

Cons

I would like it to let me convert a task into a wiki and keep all of the attached files with it. Right now, I would have to manually create a wiki page and re-upload everything, which is time consuming and so I haven't actually taking on this task. I've yet to take advantage of their other features: CRM - If this were integrated with 3rd parties, it would be immediately useful Time tracking - I use a 3rd party so that I can keep track on a macro level, not down to the project or task level. Passwords - Not sure how robust and secure this is.

### "Freedcamp, one of the easiest ways to organize your projects"

August 11, 2020

5.0

We mainly use Freedcamp for the time input functions. We have used some of the milestone features and calendar features but already have other calendars and methods of organization for those.

Pros

I love that the free option is extremely usable. We haven't had to pay for it because we mainly use it for time management on video projects we work on as a team. It's super easy to keep active projects upfront and archive older projects. I love that I can go back to projects from years ago to compare it to new projects. This makes my estimate process extremely easy.

Cons

I would love to see the ability to record hours against a budgeted amount so that we can easily see which areas we still have hours left compared to the contract. For now, we have just implemented a prefix for each hourly input so that it is easy to export a document broken down and organized to send to the client if needed.

### "A lot of options to manage your project"

April 5, 2018

5.0

The most complete free tool to manage and monitoring your projects.

Pros

It is very complete, because besides the normal tools of a free project tool like Gantt Chart and calendar, you can also manage milestones, discussions, a wiki tool, a wall and my favorite the issue tracker, that allows you to search and speficic task to modify or add information, I think that Freedcamp is one the best free option to work in projects.

Cons

You need people very engage to work with you in this kind of app, because it demands a lot of time and responsability, and if you do not work with the right people you have to know that the app will not do the work for you, because it is only a help.

### "a must on our daily work"

June 25, 2020

5.0

the most important for us, having this kind of software, is having all the things related to a specific project in one single place... also the communication between us and the client becomes more fluid and we avoid having a LOT of e-mails creating confusion

Pros

what we really like on this kind of software is that we can have all the information related with the project in a single place... also the communication between us and the client becomes more fluid and this is really important for us.

Cons

it could be great if we have a desktop app to work and to avoid having all the time to open the browser. We found that in some browsers (specially safari) some features don't work all the time... sometimes work, other no...

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

because the simplicity of FreedCamp... is super easy to learn and with a great support;)

### "We used Freedcamp for project-managing our rural community-based fundraising event."

August 11, 2017

5.0

Pros

You can just jump in and use it without any advanced computer skills and your data is regularly backed up. It's just so easy to get up and going immediately. You can run multiple projects at a time. The other things I really like about Freedcamp is the speedy, knowledgeable and friendly help desk service, as well as the ability to post suggested improvements in a public forum that other users can comment and vote on. It's like being part of a development team all working to create the best programme possible. Also, Freedcamp kindly sponsored our non-profit community event by giving us access to all the add-ons at no cost. Apart from producing a wonderful product, it demonstrates a social conscience that is a rarity today. We are extremely grateful to them for supporting us.

Cons

I honestly can't think of a thing. It did everything we needed it to. I would recommend it to others in a heartbeat - particularly to small community groups that don't use project management software on a regular basis or have a large organisation behind them with lots of computer skills. This isn't to say it's not a complex and well-engineered product suitable for a wide range of organisations and businesses - simply that it's designed so that people with ALL levels of experience can use it. If I had to make a comment on what I'd like to see with Freedcamp, it would be that it is more widely advertised online so that when people search for project management software, it's right there in your face and you don't have to go looking through lists of other, more complex and expensive options. :-)

### "Freedcamp is great for me"

June 24, 2020

5.0

I instruct a couple of outsourcers using Skype. But once things get other than simple - ie we are working on 2-3 or more tasks simultaneously, I need to track each task: Freedcamp fits the bill. It could be easier to use here and there but it's a workhorse that does the job I used to use paid-for Basecamp for. And it does it well.

Pros

It allows me to instruct several staff members and track what they are doing, and the thread of our convos.

Cons

It takes a bit of getting your head around using it. There are a few usability issues, but I use the free version and it suits my purposes brilliantly.

### "Powerful, Affordable, Comprehensive"

February 12, 2019

5.0

Love it. I used Basecamp for a while, and Freedcamp is better IMO. I submitted a feature request one time and the owner engaged me in more conversation about why I wanted that feature. That is the only time that has ever happened!

Pros

Incredible base set of features So many integrations Flexible and affordable plan options Amazing Support

Cons

there were a few problems I had early on, but they were fixed within a few updates.

### "Love using Freedcamp!"

June 26, 2020

5.0

Pros

Easy to use! I used Freedcamp to create project templates, each with their own range of task lists, tasks, and subtasks. Love that I can put individual due dates on each task and subtask of the template, and then be able to create a new project and shift all due dates relative to a chosen date. Can have all tasks show up on Google Calendar with a handy integration, and can choose what filters apply to calendars. Simply awesome to use, would absolutely recommend!

Cons

Nothing to complain about, love Freedcamp!

### "Easily the Best Lightweight PM Tool around"

November 15, 2016

5.0

I needed a new lightweight PM tool. Checked out old faithful, (Basecamp). Ugh. Don't need to spend the money for these small projects. Tried Asana. Ok, but weird interface I could never get used to. Tried Meisterwork. (I think that was the name.) It wasn't bad, but it didn't wow me. Then I found Freedcamp. Wow! I signed up immediately, and have been using it literally every day for 6 months now. I manage a bunch of smallish projects all the time. None of them last long, but there are too many tasks and too many projects and too many statuses to do it on paper. Wow, do I love this little program. Like Basecamp, it does not do GANTT charts or WBS or Earned Value calculations or all that high-end NASA-centric calculating. What it does do is allow me to manage a butt-load of different projects with lots of tasks without losing my mind. It even has a time tracker.

Pros

I love the "bulletin board" interface option. Love the drag-n-drop status updates. Love the way it manages teams, files, projects. Love the ability to categorize & group. Actually, I love almost everything about this project.

Cons

There is NOTHING I don't like about this. It's like they crawled inside my head and designed the EXACT light project management tool I imagined.

### "The Best Program Management Software Around"

August 8, 2020

5.0

I have used Freedcamp for years, relied on it for years, and now can't imagine doing business without it.

Pros

The ability to run multiple projects across diverse geographic locations and with different team members across multiple suppliers is critical to running any program of work. Freedcamp handles this very well and gives me back control over my very varied projects. With its excellent task visibility I can monitor the progress of my team members, enabling me to identify any road blocks and blast through them. It helps me know where I should be putting my focus, and improves my efficiency. It's why I run several different instances across my multiple businesses.

Cons

Some of the interfaces and navigation can be a bit clunky (i.e. not intuitive), but then I am stretching the program to its limits.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

It was free, and for start-up and micro businesses that's critical.

### "Freed Camp Dreams"

July 30, 2020

5.0

to help organize daily task and keep me from missing items that can cost lots of time and money.

Pros

I like the ability to break up tasks per project with due dates. The ability to and files and pictures is handy. The task high priority and low priority helps me filter daily task overload. I have tried a bunch of task management programs and this is my favorite. Please try to keep it simple on the surface but have the details if you really need them.

Cons

I was dreaming some may we could add a highlight on priority tasks a couple different colors. Adding tasks on the phone app is a little bit of a stretch with the finger and hard to get to. if i want to print out tasks for a project and give to some one that don't have a computer the print out is hard to understand and small font.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

The free option the ability to separate task , jobs and project task separations is great. Calendar due dates and projects...

### "Similar Software Doesn't Compare"

August 4, 2020

5.0

Pros

I like the ease of use of this product, from creating tasks to tracking time it's all very easy. Another thing I like that others don't seem to adopt is the task views, I personally like the Kanban view which allows you to mark tasks as: No Progress, In Progress, and Completed. Lastly, adding new users is a breeze as well as assigning them new tasks once they are added.

Cons

For my needs which is discussing tasks with team members and tracking time it suits me well. The only thing I might suggest is adding the ability to have another status for the Kanban view. Meaning the ability to add one such as "Needs Reviewed". I currently have great communication with team members but I'm sure this would help for bigger teams.

### "Great for project management"

August 23, 2018

4.0

Pros

Freedcamp makes it simple to add a project, list out tasks and sub-tasks, and keep updated on project process

Cons

You can't assign tasks to private groups or make them hidden from specific people, which is a bummer since it would be nice to differentiate what tasks are for an internal team as opposed to a guest/contributor/client

### "Freedcamp is an efficient way to keep track of tasks."

August 28, 2019

5.0

Pros

This product was a definite improvement of my coworkers and I emailing each other back and forth. Keeping track of web design projects and all of the changes or fixes that need to be done is all in one place and can be easily navigated.

Cons

Some aspects such as web passwords on the toolbar doesn't always show the list. I'm sure this is user fault, but it personally can be confusing to add things to the right places.

### "Easy to use and flexible organization managing software"

July 1, 2020

4.0

Pros

Freedcamp is very inexpensive and easily adaptable to any organisation.

Cons

The frequent email reminders and its browser-based system is less suitable for me. However, it also has an application that would solve most of these issues. In my case, however, due to my organisation I am not allowed to install such software on my work laptop.

August 28, 2018

Helps me and my colleagues to manage 30+ projects in parallel with ease, is a great project archive / "memory" and very inuitive to use -> little to no onboarding time needed for new users

Pros

See above :) Plus ease of use, a slick UI and a very thought-trough incremental improvement process of functionality usefull to all users.

Cons

It would be great if GANTT chart functionality would be part of the "Freelancer" plan already (but that is more a personal wish, not a problem with the service per se).

### "Best collaboration software I have used."

April 20, 2018

5.0

I like that we have our project management, collaboration and calendaring tools in one place. Additionally, with their wiki tool, we can move our process documentation and eliminate the additional cost of the process management app we were paying for.

Pros

I like that it is structured like true project management software hierachy - projects, tasks and subtasks, yet you have the option of different views - task list, kanban and Gantt.

Cons

They have a free forever plan, but found it necessary to upgrade to a paid plan to get the features we wanted, despite having a very small number of users. Wish the plans were based more on users vs. features.

### "Great for project management!"

July 1, 2020

5.0

We've been using Freedcamp for around two years and find it extremely easy to use. It works well for managing our task lists for 20+ fundraising events per year across six chapters. They are continuously rolling out new features and an even better user experience.

Pros

This software is great for managing marketing projects at our nonprofit. It's easy to use and communicate through. We especially like the ability to email a project into the software and track the time spent on each project.

Cons

We'd love the ability to create a task template that other users can select and edit/create into a project. For example, when users are requesting a social media post from the marketing team, they could select that task template which requested all the information we need from them to complete that project.

### "Easy to use and amazing value for the cost"

June 25, 2020

5.0

I run 3 businesses and have 4 kids so it's essential that I can have an easy way to manage all the moving pieces in my life. I use Freedcamp to organize projects in all of my businesses as well as in my personal life. I can manage complicated custom design projects as easily as I can assign chores to my kids. The set up is clean enough that I frequently add a child onto a home project for them to complete.

Pros

Freedcamp is very intuitive to use. My favorite feature is that it offers so many ways to see your projects yet they still organize it in a way that's intuitive. I've tried SO MANY systems and have found most others to get overwhelming as they try to offer different views. Not so with Freedcamp - lots of flexibility while maintaining an easy to use interface - it's very easy to jump to different views right from the main screen.

Cons

There's nothing that I don't like about this software. That said, I do wish I could drag and reorder tasks from the task view. I'd also like to be able to bulk edit and move tasks more easily.

It is one of the best and easier to use project management application but can be better if the developers make its UI more Useful.

### "The most needed features at the best price."

June 23, 2020

5.0

Love it. Looking forward to a trial of the Minimalist plan.

Pros

The free plan is great as a base in terms of features. Being a freelancer, I like that the minimalist plan with cloud drive connections and email capabilities is affordable.

Cons

I mostly work in the tasks board. The user interface isn't always intuitive so there is a learning curve. It would be great to be able to assign a task to more than one person or to be able to assign subtasks to a separate user. This may be available in a higher plan but I don't see it specifically mentioned in the features list.

### "This has been the easiest and most effective project management platform to implement"

July 23, 2018

4.0

It is a great tool to manage different types of projects without a lot of complication. The interface is fairly simple and the free plan has unlimited projects and users. I work with a lot of creatives that honestly hate any type of "office software" but they actually like this program!

Pros

Freedcamp has an all free version that is very feature rich. Unlimited users and projects make it a no brainer for someone that needs simple, yet effective project management. I had looked at several others and really loved Bitrix24 BUT the training time for Bitrix was insane for other people and overly complicated. Freedcamp is something I can use with anyone that doesn't have any "project management software" experience and can stay on track. My team was VERY happy with this choice.

Cons

There really aren't a lot of cons about the software. I do wish that it had a Gmail function (much like Wrike) that you could easily add emails into a project. Other than that its pretty awesome.

### "Very good task manager"

August 17, 2020

5.0

In my previous work, I have partecipate to retrive the right pm software. In a small team we have decided to try and adopt Freedcamp, to improve task scheduling and to remember every thins to do in a project. We are few and overloaded, so freedcamp help us to manage all thing and task, right weight to every activity we have to do.

Pros

Projects splitting into task and manage these by priority and assignee with release/mail stone is a must have! The clear and easy interface is valuable plus. Freedcamp is not the classic heavy and complicate project management software, it’s easy and functional centric.

Cons

Big problem is the static statuses management , in kenban and in single task. The time tracking is too simplified and need to be improved. Manage Users in projects and related permission is the only feature that result complicate.

We use Freedcamp as our online learning library and community of practice space for sharing best practices, asking questions, and posting files. Our network is spread out across the US and Canada, so we need an easy space to do this. We've only begun to scratch the surface of the functionality here.
