Detailed Review
Beesbusy is a French SAS out of Nantes, founded in 2017, built around two views most Kanban-first tools leave out: a Gantt-style "When" view for scheduling and a "Who" view showing team workload at a glance.
The free plan covers unlimited projects, task lists and collaborators with no credit card required, which is generous for a genuinely free tier in this category, and the paid Business and Enterprise plans add the Gantt and workload views, calendar and Trello import, and — at the top — time tracking with occupancy-rate calculations.
Pricing is published in full: Business at €9.99 per month, Enterprise at €19.99, both with a 20% discount for annual billing and steep volume discounts above five licences. The detail worth knowing before buying is where the data sits: Beesbusy's own legal notice names Infomaniak, a Swiss hosting company based in Geneva, as its infrastructure provider — Swiss rather than French, but squarely outside US jurisdiction either way, and a specific named host rather than an unnamed "EU region."
What Beesbusy does well
- Full price list published, including volume discounts
- Generous free plan: unlimited projects and collaborators
- Gantt ("When") and workload ("Who") views in one product
- Hosted by Infomaniak in Geneva, Switzerland — a named host
- French company, founded 2017
Where Beesbusy falls short
- No certification of its own published
- Time tracking with occupancy rates only on the Enterprise plan
- Smaller feature set than the platform-scale tools here
- Aimed at SMEs rather than large or regulated organisations
Standout feature. A named Swiss host in the legal notice: Beesbusy is one of the few tools here that states exactly whose servers the data sits on.
