Project Management Software, Compared: Verified 2026 Pricing

Bill BelcaminoBy Bill Belcamino · Last updated September 27, 2026 · Our methodologyResearched and fact-checked by the HelpCompare team

Bottom line up frontby Bill Belcamino, founder of HelpCompare
Editorial assessment

Bottom line up front: Where should a team start when choosing project management software?

Start on a free plan, since all six tools have one, but check where each stops: 2 users on Asana and Monday.com, 10 on Jira, and 250 issues on Linear.

Paid entry runs from Trello's $5/user/mo, Monday.com's $9/seat/mo carries a 3-seat minimum, and Asana and Monday.com bill AI by metered credits. Most rollouts stall for the same reason: the team moves its old mess into a new tool. Before the pilot, agree on paper on the few statuses a task can have, that every task gets one owner and a due date, and the single place new requests come in. Without that, any of these tools fills up with half-updated tasks and the software takes the blame. Run the pilot on a real project with a real deadline, and buy seats only once people update their tasks without being chased.

Verified data · quick answer

Editorial assessment

What this means for your team

  • Audit reports: all publish a SOC 2 report, and Asana, ClickUp, Monday.com, Trello, Jira, Linear, Airtable and Smartsheet also hold ISO/IEC 27001. Ask each vendor for the report under NDA before you sign; security reviews usually want the latest one.
  • Single sign-on: Asana includes it on Enterprise; ClickUp includes it on Enterprise; Monday.com includes it on Enterprise; Trello includes it on Any plan with Atlassian Guard Standard (add-on); included in Enterprise; Jira includes it on Any plan with Atlassian Guard Standard (add-on); included in Enterprise; Linear includes it on Enterprise; Airtable includes it on Business; Smartsheet includes it on Enterprise; Motion includes it. If your team signs in through Okta, Microsoft Entra ID or Google, price the plan that includes SSO, not the entry plan.
  • Health data: Asana, ClickUp, Monday.com, Jira, Linear, Airtable and Smartsheet will sign a HIPAA business associate agreement (Asana: Enterprise+; ClickUp: Enterprise; Monday.com: Enterprise; Jira: Standard; Linear: Enterprise; Airtable: Enterprise Scale; Smartsheet: Enterprise). We found no BAA offer for Trello and Motion, so keep protected health information out of them.
  • Working offline: Trello lets you keep working without a connection; Asana, ClickUp, Monday.com, Linear and Smartsheet work offline only in part; Airtable needs an internet connection; Jira and Motion don’t document an offline mode. Details are in the Offline mode row above.
  • Office-only access: Asana can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Enterprise+; ClickUp can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Enterprise (early version; request access via account manager); Monday.com can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Enterprise; Jira can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Premium; Linear can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Enterprise; Airtable can restrict sign-ins to approved IP ranges on Enterprise Scale. That suits an office network or a company VPN; fully remote teams need a VPN for it to work.
  • Where your data lives: Asana lets you choose US, EU, Japan, Australia on Enterprise (add-on); included in Enterprise+; ClickUp lets you choose US, EU, Australia, Singapore on Enterprise; Monday.com lets you choose US, EU, Australia; Jira lets you choose Australia, Canada, EU, Germany, India, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, UK, US on Standard; Linear lets you choose US, EU; Airtable lets you choose US, EU; Smartsheet lets you choose US, EU, Australia on Pro. This matters for teams hiring across the EU, UK or Australia.

Asana: worth knowing

  • RemoteAsana's IP allowlist can be applied to all users, only organization members, or only guests, and optionally to API traffic. source
  • SecurityMandatory 2FA on Enterprise tiers can be enforced for guests as well as domain members, useful for outside collaborators not on your SSO. source
  • RemoteWith data residency, all of an organization's Asana data must sit in one region (US, Frankfurt, Tokyo or Sydney). source
  • SecurityMobile app controls that limit downloads, screenshots and copy/paste are listed on the pricing page as a Permissions Management add-on. source

ClickUp: worth knowing

  • RemoteA ClickUp staff reply on its feedback board says the early-access full-traffic IP restriction limits all traffic, not just login, to allowed ranges such as an office network or VPN. source
  • SecurityIf someone belongs to several Workspaces that enforce session management, the strictest (shortest) limit applies to their account. source
  • OfflineClickUp stores tasks pinned to the Tray offline automatically. source
  • SecurityAudit log history is kept for 60 days. source

Monday.com: worth knowing

  • Officemonday.com's IP restrictions are designed to limit account access to users on the office network or a specific VPN. source
  • RemoteIP restrictions also apply to the mobile app, so staff outside allowed IPs cannot log in from phones. source
  • RemoteAn account's data region is set automatically from the location of the first user who opens it; a different region needs a new account. source
  • OfflineOffline edits made on mobile overwrite a colleague's changes to the same item when you reconnect. source

Trello: worth knowing

  • SecuritySAML SSO and enforced 2FA for Trello come through Atlassian Guard, a separate subscription (from $4/user/month) unless you are on Trello Enterprise, which includes Guard Standard. source
  • OfflineTrello's desktop apps behave like the web app and do not work offline; only the mobile apps sync offline changes. source

Jira: worth knowing

  • RemoteEven with an IP allowlist, some Jira/Confluence information (such as notification details and Smart Links) stays visible to users outside the allowed ranges. source
  • SecurityOn the Jira pricing page, Guard Standard (SSO, SCIM, AD sync) is marked 'Requires Atlassian Guard Standard subscription' on Free, Standard and Premium and 'Included' on Enterprise. source
  • OfflineAtlassian's public tracker lists an offline mode for the Jira Cloud Android and iOS apps as an unresolved suggestion. source

Linear: worth knowing

  • RemoteLinear IP restrictions cover web, desktop and mobile access to the workspace. source
  • SecurityAdmins can restrict which login methods members may use on Business and Enterprise plans. source
  • RemoteEven with an EU workspace, account information, API keys and usage data are always stored in the United States. source
  • RemoteThe data region is picked when the workspace is created and can't be changed self-serve later. source

Airtable: worth knowing

  • RemoteOn Enterprise Scale, admins can limit sign-in to approved IP addresses or CIDR blocks (e.g. office or VPN ranges). source
  • OfflineAirtable has no offline mode; teams needing offline access must export data (e.g. CSV) beforehand. source
  • SecurityCustomers can choose EU data residency, with the EU data center in Frankfurt, Germany. source
  • SecurityEnterprise customers can encrypt data at rest with their own keys (Enterprise Key Management). source

Smartsheet: worth knowing

  • RemoteThe data region (US, EU or Australia) is picked when the account is created and cannot be changed afterwards. source
  • OfflineThe Windows/Mac desktop app is deprecated and will be retired on or after 29 October 2026; Smartsheet points users to the web app. source
  • SecurityOn Enterprise, admins can use a safe sharing policy to limit sharing to an approved list of users and domains, which helps control guest and external access. source
  • SecuritySmartsheet Gov, the separate government edition, holds a FedRAMP Moderate authorization. source

Motion: worth knowing

  • RemoteMotion states customer data is not stored in the European Union. source
  • RemoteMotion says it does not train AI models on customer data. source

Engineer by training, operator by experience, marketer by choice. Bill spent eight and a half years as an engineer at HP, was COO of Auctiva (the number one third-party selling platform on eBay, past 200,000 users) and ran Google’s $70M/year search syndication partnership at Alot.com. Then he spent 13 years building his own web properties with his own money at stake.
