The short version

  • Only Wrike has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Contractor Foreman basic plan at $49 per month is limited to 1 user; adding an 8-user team requires the Plus tier at $166 per month, as of August 2026; Wrike seats are sold in blocks rather than singly: groups of 5 up to 30 seats, groups of 10 up to 100, and groups of 25 above that, so adding one person can mean paying for five
