Great tool for any size company

PROS

It is easy to use even for non-tech people and offers the possibility to connect all your work with other platforms where the team usually keep their files and program their activities like dropbox or gdrive and gcalendar, so, is very useful to have this conectivity

CONS

Some free features were moved only for subscription accounts without notice, anyway, the subscription is not expensive but some notification would be appreciated.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

It is easy to use and add new features that my team needs including the mobile app.

Reasons for switching to Freedcamp

Redboot change the free accounts to make them useless for teams with more than 2 people

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

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.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

It fit our needs better.

Reasons for switching to Freedcamp

For the money, Basecamp didn't deliver anything particularly special that many less expensive applications offer.

Not the most flexible tool on the market

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.

Vendor Response

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

Almost perfect, but not quite

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.

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

My project managers chose this tool based on their research for what they needed.

Reasons for switching to Freedcamp

I prefer the gaant or list view, tiles don't give me a good overview of everything moving.

A well balanced mix of features

I’ve implemented and used Freedcamp to run my own projects and several for my clients in industry and Govt for several years now. I find it consolidates project tracking, communication & file management brilliantly - and in a very user friendly manner.

PROS

Compared to its competitors, I’ve liked that - it consolidates several features that typically get spread across multiple products. - the mix of features however are not overwhelming, as can happen with a few others like Clickup - it’s usually immediately useable and understood even by non technical users - their free tier is very generous

CONS

2 features I wish were available more cheaply - the Gantt chart - mindmaps (though this one is a “nice to have”)

Reason for choosing Freedcamp

It sits perfectly in the middle of the spectrum between these 2 products, in terms of features and ease of use
