Freedcamp vs Trello

Freedcamp

• Teams that want a free plan with no limit on users or projects
• Small businesses wanting tasks, time tracking, CRM and invoicing in one tool
• Teams working with clients, since read-only and guest users are free on paid plans

Trello

• Individuals and small teams that plan work on kanban boards
• Groups of up to 10 collaborators sharing a free Workspace
• Teams already using Jira or other Atlassian products

Freedcamp

• Gantt chart view, custom fields, custom statuses, Wiki, Issue Tracker, CRM, Invoices+ and reports all need the Business plan.
• The Free plan has no email-in, cloud-drive links, recurring tasks or two-factor authentication, and limits each upload to 10 MB.
• SAML single sign-on and white labeling are Enterprise only, and a private cloud instance costs a fixed extra yearly fee.
• Unlimited storage on every plan is subject to a fair usage policy.

Trello

• The Free plan is capped at 10 collaborators and 10 boards per Workspace, with 10MB per file.
• Calendar, Timeline, Table, Dashboard and Map views are only on Premium and Enterprise.
• AI features and full Planner access start on the Standard plan.
• The Enterprise price is an estimate that depends on user count, and the plan is billed annually.

Freedcamp

Tasks in several views

Tasks can be shown as Kanban cards and columns, with assignees or statuses as the columns. Table view starts on Pro, and the Gantt chart view with dependencies needs Business.

Time tracking

The Time app records how long tasks and issues take, and is one of the core apps on every plan. Multi-level grouping of time records starts on Pro.

Milestones and calendar

Milestones mark key project deadlines, and the calendar collects task and project dates. Calendar sharing is on every plan; Google Calendar sync and recurring events start on Pro.

Issue Tracker and Wiki

The Issue Tracker turns a project into a bug-reporting system, and the Wiki holds long-term project knowledge. Both are available from the Business plan.

CRM and Invoices+

A built-in CRM keeps track of customers and follow-ups, and Invoices+ produces invoices and estimates. Both need the Business plan or above.

Shared password manager

The Passwords app, for sharing credentials securely with a team, is a core app included on every plan, the free one too.

Trello

Boards, lists and cards

Work is laid out as cards in lists on a board. Cards are unlimited on every plan; the Free plan allows up to 10 boards per Workspace.

Inbox

Captures to-dos from email, Slack and other sources into a personal Inbox. It is included on the Free plan.

Planner

Brings a synced calendar into Trello so blocks of focus time can be set aside for work. Full Planner access starts on the Standard plan.

Automation

Built-in automation is metered by Workspace command runs: 250 a month on Free, 1,000 on Standard and unlimited on Premium.

Premium views

Premium adds Calendar, Timeline, Table, Dashboard and Map views, including Workspace-level views that span boards.

Power-Ups and integrations

Power-Ups link boards to other tools, with unlimited Power-Ups per board on every plan. An MCP server connects Trello to AI tools.
