Teamwork.com

Teamwork.com is project-management software for teams coordinating client and project-based work. It is best suited to groups that need to track time, include guests, and manage multiple projects. Its free plan is a useful starting point for a small team, but paid plans have custom pricing.

Overview

Teamwork.com combines project allowances with automation, time tracking, and guest access. That combination can help teams keep project work and outside collaborators in one workflow, while the free tier offers a defined way to start. The main trade-off is that the free plan is tightly capped and the paid tiers’ prices are not published.

The product runs on web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, and includes 150 native integrations. Those platforms and integrations give teams several ways to access it and connect other software, though they do not change the plan limits that will shape fit.

Key features

Project and automation capacity

Project and automation allowances rise sharply by tier. Free permits five projects and 100 automations; Basics expands that to 300 projects and 5,000 automations; Accelerate allows 600 projects and 20,000 automations. Optimize and Enterprise both remove the project cap and allow 100,000 automations. This ladder gives growing teams a way to match capacity to a larger portfolio, but the higher quotas do not come with public prices for comparison.

Time tracking and guest access

Time tracking and guest access are available capabilities, not just project-count increases. They make Teamwork.com a stronger candidate for work that involves recording time and collaborating with people beyond the core team. The stated plan allowances do not show how those capabilities differ by tier, so buyers should focus first on the listed user, storage, project, and automation limits.

Pricing

Teamwork.com uses a freemium model, with a Free plan and a 14-day trial. The Free plan costs nothing (billed billed yearly) and includes five projects, five users, and 100 automations. That is a practical starting point for a small team with a bounded project load, but the five-user cap leaves little room to grow without moving up.

Free: free (billed billed yearly); five projects, five users, and 100 automations. Best for a small group validating whether the project and automation limits fit.

Basics: custom pricing; 300 projects, 100 GB storage, and 5,000 automations, with a three-user minimum. It suits teams that have outgrown Free and need more project and storage capacity, but the minimum means it is not an option for a solo user.

Accelerate: custom pricing; 600 projects, 250 GB storage, and 20,000 automations, with a five-user minimum. Its larger allowances suit established teams with heavier project volume, though buyers must request pricing to assess the step up.

Optimize: custom pricing; unlimited projects, 500 GB storage, and 100,000 automations. It fits organizations that need room for an uncapped project portfolio.

Enterprise: custom pricing; unlimited projects, 1,000 GB storage, and 100,000 automations. It doubles Optimize’s storage while keeping the same project and automation allowances, which makes storage the clearest stated reason to consider it instead.

The free tier is the only one with a published price. Basics and Accelerate specify user minimums, while Optimize and Enterprise do not state one; no paid tier can be compared on cost without a custom quote. The 14-day trial provides a limited evaluation window before a buying decision.

Platforms

Teamwork.com runs on web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. That range is useful for teams that need both desktop and mobile access, while 150 native integrations may reduce the need to work across disconnected tools.

Who it's for

Teamwork.com is a good fit for small project teams that can work within five users and five projects, and for larger teams whose workload benefits from time tracking, guest access, and higher project or automation limits. It is less suitable for buyers who need predictable paid-plan costs before contacting the vendor, or for teams whose needs exceed Free but do not meet Basics’ three-user minimum.

Pros and cons

Pro: The Free plan has clear limits of five projects and five users, making it possible to judge whether a small team can start without a paid commitment.

Pro: Paid tiers offer a substantial capacity ladder, from 300 projects on Basics to unlimited projects on Optimize and Enterprise.

Pro: Time tracking and guest access support work that involves time accounting or external collaborators.

Con: Paid plans use custom pricing, making costs harder to compare before requesting a quote.

Con: Free’s five-user ceiling is restrictive for teams growing beyond a small group.

Con: Basics and Accelerate require at least three and five users respectively, limiting their fit for smaller teams with higher project needs.

Alternatives

Consider Avaza if a free plan with unlimited project collaborators matters more than Teamwork.com’s stated project and automation ladder; its free plan caps timesheet and expense users, admin and finance users, and resource-scheduling users at one each. Choose Syncro Remote Access when endpoint-oriented remote access is the priority: its Core Plan is $129 a month billed annually, priced per user, and includes unlimited endpoints.

Scoro is an alternative for buyers who prefer a published starting price: its Time-billing plan is $17 a month and includes Track and Invoice apps. SuperOps may suit teams buying per endpoint instead of by project capacity; its Prime plan starts at $1.50 a month billed per endpoint/month, with a 100-endpoint minimum.

Deltek Maconomy is another option to assess for professional services firms. Accelo may also suit buyers who want a custom quote based on team size and growth goals, with access to the full platform and implementation guidance. BQE CORE is worth considering for teams seeking optional CRM modules such as campaign management, prospect tracking, and proposal building. Datto Endpoint Backup for Windows is an alternative for consumption-based storage pricing.

Verdict

Choose Teamwork.com if your team needs project management with time tracking, guest access, and a clear path from a small free workspace to much larger project and automation quotas. Look elsewhere if predictable paid pricing is essential before contacting a vendor, or if the Free cap and paid-tier user minimums do not match your team size.
