[Overview](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/freedcamp-profile/) Reviews [Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/freedcamp-profile/alternatives/) # Freedcamp User Reviews ## Reviews summary - Overall rating: 4.7/5 - Total reviews: 502 ### Secondary ratings - Ease of use: 4.5/5 - Customer support: 4.7/5 - Value for money: 4.7/5 - Functionality: 4.4/5 ### Rating distribution - 5 stars: 358 reviews (71%) - 4 stars: 121 reviews (24%) - 3 stars: 19 reviews (4%) - 2 stars: 3 reviews (1%) - 1 star: 1 reviews (0%) ### Most mentioned pros - 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. - 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. - Freedcamp has helped Respek Indonesia Siaga manage multiple community projects with clear workflows, task assignments, and deadlines. ### Most mentioned cons - Hard to think of much, it's hard to view a Gant chart on my mobile but that's really a limitation of my mobile size than Freedcamp. - 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. - Perfect value for money, but unfortunately there's no French version, so the interface is difficult for French-speaking users. ## Freedcamp customer reviews Showing reviews 1-25 of 502 (page 1). ### Free Version is Very Useful - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nicholette S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered 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! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. --- ### Reliable, easy and affordable, meeting nonprofit needs - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Maggie J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered As a leader of digital marketing for the World Ethics Organization, leading the task of finding and setting up a project management tool for our nonprofit, and being able to present it and transfer over to Freedcamp, the rest of the team is satisfied and happy with the overall functionality of the tool as it meets our needs, as well as very prompt customer service, which is crucial for us. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Having been comparing many project management tools that are affordable for a nonprofit startup, Freedcamp is the only one we could start with due to it's affordability and functionality. It is relatively easy to use, especially for a nonprofit variety of people with different levels of technical skill sets. I have also been reaching out to customer support regarding some functions and use, and I was very satisfied with the outcome, because of prompt and clear replies, which for us is crucial. #### Cons The only thing that we are missing in the PRO version is not having the Gantt chart, which is available in the next level pricing, which unfortunately for our nonprofit is not affordable at this stage. #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp Functionality and affordability, it has met all our needs. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp price affordability, we couldn't use the free version for the capacity we needed, and we couldn't afford the paid version for the capacity we do need it. --- ### It was struggle, struggle and struggle again - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Olga F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. See above Switching to another tool (basecamp) was something I lobbied and asked and could support myself through my organisation but the project coordinator who liked the tool was not in favour of any changes. The project is almost over, I will be happy to forget this nightmare. Please do more usability testing and make software user friendly! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros The only thing I liked it that the person who implemented it seemed to enjoy all the intricacies of the tool . I can imagine that computer science background was of help to this person. Otherwise, as a user I found this the worst software package I had to use in my entire professional life. #### Cons 3 years of struggle with each functionality of the tool - discussion threads, status, notifications etc. make it impossible to name one thing. I wonder whether there was any form of usability testing with new users ? I doubt it. I conquered the tool each time I needed some response from colleagues badly however it was never easy and I gave up doing an additional e-mail round to be sure the message reached the addressee. #### Vendor response Hi! I'm sorry you had a bad experience. We rarely get complaints like these, but we will consider implementing more usability testing. I would also like to add that we have no record of you ever being in contact with our support team, so I think the 1/5 rating in that category is a bit unfair. Replied August 2020 --- ### Beating your Monday Blues with Freedcamp - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: John H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Excellent. The team has always responded in the early days when we hit a snag, today I rarely need to talk to them if I do they respond almost instantly. I've had to use other programs over the years at various other companies I've worked at, I always return to Freedcamp, by far the best. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It keeps us focused on the tasks across a range of projects we run simultaneously. We run Fortitude Boxing Gym, one of Australia's largest Boxing Gym that has projects across Queensland in Australia supporting remote gyms and First Nations Communities. We also run fundraising events for the Veterans Community. With more than 8 projects in a year and many fight nights, that's a lot of work to keep track of. Freedcamp keeps us focused, on time, and because of that on budget. One feature that stands out is the ability of different users to view a project in different views, I love a Gant chats, whereas my boss loves the Koban view, so we both use our own preferred view of the same project. #### Cons Hard to think of much, it's hard to view a Gant chart on my mobile but that's really a limitation of my mobile size than Freedcamp. #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp I trialed both Monday and Basecamp, both trials were very limiting and the team behind them showed no interest in my projects or programs. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp I moved from Asana as Freedcamp was easier, had more features for the budget, had a far better responsive team behind it, and gave better value for money. It was easier to teach people to use which is a key factor --- ### All In One Business Management @ Amazing Prices - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Christopher J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I think what impresses me about Freedcamp the most is the level of support. I asked about an automation feature I needed to maximize my workflow, and they rolled it out across the whole platform not long after! I have tons of experience with SaaS but this is next level. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love how accessible the team here has made Freedcamp to just about anyone. At first this devalued the whole thing in my mind, until I started trying out the premium features. I love how responsive the team is, and how customizable the software is. Between the combination of these two things, you can achieve pretty much anything you can imagine as far as project management software goes. The enterprise features are super cool too. The custom domain is almost unheard of in this space, tie that in with the branding and wow my mind is blown. #### Cons The learning curve. There is SO many features that figuring out how to prioritize and train on the ones you want to use can be overwhelming. I think this is a good problem to have, but it must be taken into consideration especially with larger organizations #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp I loved the customizability, but it wasn't unified enough to scale. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp Wasnt happy with the support and constant price increases. I was also looking for something where I could customize domain and branding which Asana cannot do. --- ### Freedcamp is amazing and a life saver overall - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Michael P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Food & Beverages - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. It is an amazing amount of software for the free tier and I highly recommend it for those with large teams, and those with small minimal teams the premium version is well worth it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Freedcamp is an amazing tool on the free version. For a company like mine, where I have a lot of different clients, and they have a lot of different marketers, designers, etc. that often need to be included on their tasks and conversations, it makes all the sense in the world for me to use this free tool... It organizes each client into its own project and we are able to create different types of task lists etc. #### Cons There are features in the pro/paid version that I would LOVE to have... The problem here is that if you have 30 - 50 clients, with 2 - 5 persons on each team, all with varying degrees of involvement on their website but all need to be kept in the loop on what tasks are open and what arent... It becomes impossible to upgrade, because I would have to upgrade for each user license... This kept me from an awesome appsumo deal that I really wanted to buy, but didnt make sense. My suggestion to them would be able to find a way to have just a few users, or even just one, that has the capabilities to upgrade the plan, and create subtasks, etc. while still keeping the same functionality for the free tier users. I NEED the clients to be able to create, edit, etc. their own tasks. I would literally lose functionality and the ability to use the platform for upgrading. My 2 cents. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp Basecamp, while overall a little better than Freedcamp, was far too expensive for my use case. --- ### Best Nonprofit Project Management System - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Noel K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: November 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. --- ### Exactly What We Needed for Team Coordination - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Panagiota S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Sports - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our overall experience with Freedcamp has been extremely positive. It brought clarity to our communication and allowed us to centralize project planning, task tracking, and documentation in one place. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Freedcamp allows us to manage multiple projects and team members in one centralized workspace without feeling overwhelmed. It offers structure without sacrificing flexibility, which is ideal for dynamic teams like ours. #### Cons Although the permissions and role settings are very useful, it took us a bit of time to fully understand how to configure them properly for our team’s structure. --- ### Freedcamp Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Sarah R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. --- ### Efficient Project Management for Nonprofit Teams - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ghasali Muhammad E. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: September 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Freedcamp’s simple interface and task features make it easy for our nonprofit team to stay organized and efficient. #### Cons The mobile app works well, but sometimes feels a little less smooth compared to the desktop version. --- ### Freedcamp Simplified Our Event Planning for Women Techmakers and GDG Montrea - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Laurence d. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered As event organizers for Women Techmakers Montreal and GDG Montreal, managing the logistics of multiple tech events is a challenge. When our team started looking for a tool to streamline our planning, Freedcamp stood out from the rest. We were in need of a solution that could help us coordinate tasks, track progress, and keep everyone on the same page. Freedcamp offered exactly that, with its simple yet effective task management and project organization features. The calendar function quickly became one of our favorite tools, giving us a clear visual timeline for every event we plan. We can easily assign tasks to team members, set deadlines, and monitor progress to ensure nothing falls through the cracks. Freedcamp’s collaborative environment has empowered our team to work more efficiently and with greater confidence. Planning technology events, from workshops to conferences, has never been more organized or stress-free. It allows us to focus on creating valuable experiences for our community, knowing the details are well managed. We look forward to continuing to use Freedcamp as we grow our events and our team. If you're organizing complex projects like ours, we highly recommend giving it a try! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros One of the best things about Freedcamp is its intuitive task management system. It simplifies assigning tasks, setting deadlines, and tracking progress, all in one place. The calendar view is especially helpful for visualizing event timelines, ensuring that nothing is overlooked. Its collaborative features make it easy for teams to stay organized and work together efficiently, which is perfect for managing multiple projects like tech events. #### Cons One thing I dislike about Freedcamp is the lack of a built-in feature to set time estimates on tasks. For project management, especially in tech or development-focused teams, being able to estimate the time required for tasks is essential for better planning and resource allocation. Without this feature, it becomes harder to track whether a project is on schedule or if tasks are taking longer than expected. While you can work around this by using labels or comments, a dedicated time estimate feature would make task tracking much more efficient. #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp Choosing Freedcamp over Trello can be beneficial if you need a more comprehensive project management tool. Freedcamp offers integrated features like calendar and timeline views, task hierarchies, and time tracking, making it suitable for complex projects. It also provides better value with its free features compared to Trello, which often requires paid plans or integrations for similar capabilities. Freedcamp's collaborative tools are also more built-in, while Trello is better suited for simpler, visual task management. --- ### Freedcamp, great value for money - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jos B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: International Trade and Development - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered The myriad of things to think of in handling over 40 projects simultanously for sourcing and product development.Since I use project management software the productivity has gone up significanntly, not in the least because of the ease of use of Freedcamp #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like the ease of use for generating projects and for monitoring projects. I tried different project apps, but Freedcamp stands out; it's fast, has sufficient options and is easy to adjust, both for the admin as for each individual user. The pricing is another factor; the paid options are definitely value for money. #### Cons Missing options at this moment: - integrated email client- integrated email client- integrated email client- wechat integration- baidu cloud integrationLiterally the only thing really missingI dream of a world where Freedcamp has an integrated email client that allows the user to link emails and messages to a project, and that automatically saves attachments to the project folder.And since I work from China, where wechat is the defacto standard for all communication with providers and staff it would be great to be able to zap wechat directly to a project. Specific projects can have specific groups and have that information saved in freedcamp would be really awesome. Also all US based cloud systems are a hassle to use; they require VPN. Integration with Baidu cloud or Aliyun would be a definite advantage. #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp Most of these apps focus on software development or are either too structured or not structured enough for the work that we do. Jira is an exception on this, but it has a steep learning curve and requires much more management, plus it is not really suitable for a small operation like ours. Let's not forget support. Freedcamp and Feng Office were the only two replying adequately to my questions, from most I only received boilerplate reply emails. Also over time, Freedcamp has integrated many of the options and tweaks I have suggested, and I talk directly with the head of the development team. He's professional and straight forward, and gets most of my problems, issues and requests solved - except so far for the integrated email client. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp We used Freedcamp, and then we switched to Feng Office, which is significantly more expensive, because Feng Office has automated tasks and... a fully integrated email client. The automated tasks options turned out to be a bit less impressive than expected due to the steep learning curve, but the email client was the absolute winner.Yet, after one year we switched back to Freedcamp, because the difference in functionality and reduced ease of use did not justify the much higher price. --- ### Freedcamp Review – Company Use - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Celia G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: August 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our overall experience with Freedcamp has been outstanding. It has become an essential part of our team’s workflow, helping us manage projects with ease and efficiency. The platform is intuitive, making it easy to onboard new team members quickly, and the customization options allow us to tailor it to our specific needs. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros What we love most about Freedcamp is its versatility and user-friendly interface. It offers a comprehensive set of tools for project management, all in one place, making it easy to collaborate with team members, manage tasks, and keep everything organized. #### Cons While Freedcamp is overall an excellent tool, one area for improvement could be the mobile app. Although it offers a lot of functionality, it sometimes feels less intuitive and a bit clunky compared to the desktop version. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp We made the switch from Trello to Freedcamp primarily due to the superior value for money that Freedcamp offers. --- ### A fantastic product for freelancers -- the software equivalent of a virtual assistant - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Tracey W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Writing and Editing - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp I switched jobs. I liked Basecamp when I worked for a large company. But I preferred the cost of Freedcamp (free) when I started my own freelancing business. --- ### Freedcamp is a great project management tool that allows teams to collaborate. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Graphic Design - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall Freedcamp is great tool for project management. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. #### Reasons 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. --- ### Almost perfect, but not quite - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### 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. #### Reasons 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. --- ### Freedcamp a great project management tool - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mustafa R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. A great product and fits all budgets with basic functionality kept free. And the power users can purchase advanced functionality as paid plugins #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### 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. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp The trello is also a good product but its flexibility in kan ban is a bit too complex. While the basic kan ban structure of freedcamp appealed me. --- ### Freedcamp - best free and easy to use tool for project management - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### 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. #### Reasons for choosing Freedcamp Free license and time tracker, simplicity. --- ### Effortless Team Collaboration and Outstanding Support with Freedcamp - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: gauthier b. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: November 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### 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." #### Vendor response Thanks for the review. Please reach out to clarify as we allow you to add comments to tasks and subtasks. We also allow you to post bulk comments on filtered and/or selected multiple tasks and subtasks. I would love to clarify and help! Replied December 2024 --- ### Just right, not too much, not too little. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ed C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Mechanical or Industrial Engineering - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. So far great. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I chose this because other packages are WAY too bloated with features I didn't need but could not avoid and a some packages are simply too stripped down to be any more useful than pen and paper. Freedcamp has a ton of features but you can ignore the ones you're not interested in. User interface is the most approachable of any task software I've used. #### Cons I wanted more ability to manually order tasks on a list. I need due dates but I also need to juggle stuff around by simply clicking and dragging. Freed camp is set up a bit too rigid. if I give something a due date, it wants to order by due date and then tasks without due dates get lost in the shuffle. While looking at the ordered list, I want to be able to click and drag something to the top to give it priority. But you can't without changing the order setting in the menu, which then changes EVERYTHING in the list, not just the one you care about. #2 - I'd love to be able to do some fast edits of a task (like text) right in the list view without having to fully open the task. #3 - The right column with easy drag and drop due dates, priorities, and progress is a GREAT feature. Would be even better if it included user generated "tags". You have a tags feature but not in that column. #4 - in the "projects" view pane, each individual project takes up too much space forcing me to scroll through them. Would love an option to simplify the view so it's a quick text list that is more likely to fit on one page. #5 - Calendar view is great. Would be helpful if on the "month" and "week" view I could see the entire task name by hovering the mouse over the task. Month view truncates the text string so small it's hard to know what it is from just a few words. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp Honestly, the biggest reason was few software packages give you the satisfaction of getting something done. Wrike changes the color of a tiny bubble to indicate "done" and the task just sits there staring at you still. I can't remember how Asana does it but I didn't like it. Freed camp crosses off the task and greys it out giving you this sense of accomplishment and progress as you look at your lists. Also, Wrike had WAY too many features you HAD to use, Trello just wasn't powerful enough for long lists, I just didn't like Asana. --- ### My Favorite Project Management Application - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Miguel G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Graphic Design - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: March 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. --- ### Excellent project management features and customer support. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mark B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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. #### Reasons for switching to Freedcamp I searched for Project Management software - came across FreedCamp and haven't looked back. --- ### Very good task manager for entrepreneurs - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ernesto Enrique F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. 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 #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### 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 - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Carlos G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### 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 #### Reasons 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.
