How Thicket Compares

Per-seat rates as shown on each comparison card (Monday/Asana at their annual rate, ClickUp/Notion at their monthly rate). Basecamp is not in this table: since mid-2026 its price is a flat account price tiered by active project count ($25–$299/month), not by headcount. For the full verified dataset covering seven vendors, both billing cycles, and dated sources, see the Project Management Pricing Index.

Each vendor also has a plan-by-plan breakdown covering both billing cycles, team totals, and the date its prices were verified: Basecamp pricing, monday.com pricing, Asana pricing, ClickUp pricing, Notion pricing, Trello pricing, and Teamwork.com pricing.

FAQ

Common Questions

How can Thicket charge $49/month for unlimited users?

Per-user pricing exists because it maximizes vendor revenue, not because each user costs more to serve. We built Thicket lean. No bloated feature set, no enterprise sales team. We charge a flat rate so your bill stays the same whether you have 5 users or 50.

Are these competitor prices accurate?

Yes. Every figure comes from each vendor's published pricing as of 2026 and is re-verified on a dated cycle. Monday.com and Asana are shown at their annual-billing rates (month-to-month costs more), while ClickUp and Notion are shown at their monthly rates; we compare against each per-seat competitor's entry-level paid plan. Basecamp dropped per-seat pricing in mid-2026: its plans are now flat account prices tiered by active project count, shown at their published monthly prices. Thicket Pro is $49/month billed monthly, or $468/year ($39/month effective) on the annual plan.

Does Thicket have the same features as these tools?

Thicket covers the features most teams actually use: tasks, projects, documents, team messaging, group chat, scheduling, and file sharing. If you rely on enterprise features like workflow automations, portfolio dashboards, or advanced reporting, larger tools may be a better fit. But if you want simple, effective project management without per-seat costs, Thicket is built for you.

Can I migrate from my current PM tool?

Yes. Most tools let you export projects as CSV. You can recreate your workspace in Thicket in a few hours. Create projects, add tasks, and invite your team. There's no one-click import; you rebuild by hand. Most teams find the rebuild quick and fully switch within a week.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan includes 1 project, 20 people (clients included), and 1GB storage. No credit card required. Both paid plans are flat: Starter at $25/month covers up to 3 active projects, and Pro at $49/month unlocks unlimited everything with a 30-day free trial.

Do clients and contractors cost extra?

No. Thicket Pro includes unlimited users of any type: team members, clients, contractors, stakeholders. On per-seat competitors, every person you add is another $10–$14 per month.
