Project Manager Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Way of Working in Basecamp." January 20, 2018 4.0 Basecamp has benefited me a lot because I have managed to work in a better way, much more comfortable and with an insuperable stability, with Basecamp I feel that I am working without risk and with the best possible guarantee. Pros What I like the most about Basecamp is the way of working, just by entering and reading the work instructions a bit, it is completely understood how to use it, and how to apply it to the work. The functions of Basecamp are very basic, you can apply different ways to customize the project that is being carried out and you can also communicate with your team within a single platform. Cons I do not like the prices of Basecamp, I have been investigating every no of the benefits that its work plans bring, and the truth is that they do not bring so many benefits that encourage the person to pay the high prices, I would like the rates to go down and the benefits expand, adding more benefits to the work plans this would mean some progress.

I also used it for reporting to clients. It was really great to have everything in one place for each client. Cons There wasn't a whole lot I didn't like. I can't really think of a bad thing, it was very simple. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sr. Designer Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Solid Project Management Tool" November 2, 2018 4.0 Pros There is a simplicity to the overall interface that makes it very easy to hit the ground running. It does have the nice functionality of being able to segment off communication to internal and external client groups, which is very helpful. Cons The overall display of the interface for a project tends to have a disorganized feel to it, especially as you start having more and more discussions and threads it becomes a challenge to determine which thread that discussion is in after the fact.

" November 21, 2018 5.0 Not my favorite but I will definitely use this again Pros The only thing that benefits this site is that you can add everything you are working on - also if give you the right to see what to do next Cons The only thing I don’t like about this site is that it give no notification not even on my phone Id have to constantly log in idk it has its good days Review Source LR Lavanya R. Project manager Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "One of the Best project managing software that I have used till date" February 9, 2018 4.0 Pros Basecamp software is very easy to use which makes our work smooth. New features are amazing in version3. Software UI and UX are well designed with a look of social media websites, improved navigation, colors and well placed buttons, headers and menubars. Basecamp organizes our project very well,keep track of all of the project details, it is great for collaboration which bought our team together, teams with different projects are made easy to check at one place for all planning and for adding new information's. We can add people to notify when to-do is completed then it will inform about the changes that are made. Basecamp has a free option to use. Cons Basecamp provides upgrade at the time of working hours which is very disturbing for us, I would like to get updates during off peak hours. I want improvements in the bookmark features currently bookmarks are only available on front page navigation. Review Source Argenis Jose R. Ingeniero en Mantenimiento Used the software for: 1-2 years ### " is a useful collaborative tool for teams, which organizes projects easily and effectively." March 29, 2018 4.0 Through Basecamp® we can communicate with our clients, share documents, create a calendar, assign responsibilities and monitor the progress of processes. To explain all the functions that this tool fulfills Pros makes your working life not only easier but also more productive, is a leading online tool in project management, the cost is quite affordable and you can assign responsibilities to each person Cons It requires a learning time, If the client does not adopt the platform correctly, problems that interfere with the work can be generated, Another point against is that the platform only works online, so you can not advance in jobs when there is no connection. However, this last point has not caused us major problems. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director, Sales & Marketing Human Resources Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A great tool for team projects and managing tasks " January 27, 2019 4.0 Basecamp has been an effective tool for us and really helped us track our projects and tasks. We know at every meeting where we stand with our workload and who is accountable for that work. It's also been a great tool for getting documents and files organized. It has helped with project management and open communication throughout the organization. Pros We use basecamp to track our progress on projects and manage our marketing implementation plan. It's an easy tool to manage tasks for projects, invite teams or colleagues working on those projects and track progress. It is intuitive to use and I like to visual layout of the UI. Also, the tool has many features and it helps notify teams when project tasks are completed, etc. It provides clear accountability for each project. It has helped us organize and maintain important files as well. Overall, I would say it is a great project tool for teams to use. Cons Unfortunately, it is another system to log into to track projects. While it keeps the teams accountable for their projects and tasks, there are other systems (slack) that can provide similar functionality. Also, we use it a lot for filing docs, etc. but the Docs and Files section can be confusing at times to locate those docs and organize them.

I can't imagine going back to a time before it. Pros I like how it boosts visibility across the entire team. Know where everyone is at and the progress each individual is making. Cons You will see an increase in emails and notifications, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Review Source MM Meghan M. Clinical Research Coordinator Research Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Basecamp: Good for Beginners but Could be Updated for Easier Use" August 14, 2023 4.0 For the most part, Basecamp is easy to use. I do like that I have a one-stop-shop when it comes to outstanding tasks for ongoing projects. I do not like the fact that other projects (other than my own) are displayed on my profile as well as other individual's tasks that have no relation to my own. From my experience so far, I am unsure if I would recommend this application for another. Pros Basecamp is easy to use. I am only a user on Basecamp and tasks are assigned to me, but I do like that I have a one-stop-shop when it comes to outstanding tasks for ongoing projects. It allows me to keep track of project statuses from beginning to end. Cons I do not like the fact that other projects (other than my own) are displayed on my profile as well as other individual's tasks that have no relation to my own. It adds confusion to the application and if updated could truly be a wonderful thing. Review Source KR Katie R. Office Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Definitely Worth Looking Into" January 5, 2021 4.0 I really do enjoy using it. As a startup business it does keep all of our ideas in one place so we can collaborate wherever we are- which is SO helpful in pandemic times Pros I like that I can use it from anywhere because it's linked to my google account. I can be at home, on the road or at my office and see my progress anywhere- no remote login required. The app is great too! Cons I feel like the tasks aren't easily organized, but I may not be using it enough to determine that. We will see. Review Source BMAK Ble Maurice Angèle K. Entrepreneur Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best application that I suggest to friends" September 28, 2022 5.0 Pros Overall I am satisfied with basecamp it fulfills its function Cons It is not used to its full potential it is only useful for freelance missions Review Source MP Michael P. Ministry Leader Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Intuitive Project Management Software" November 21, 2018 4.0 Basecamp has allowed my team the ability to stay on top of projects specifically their own responsibilities within the larger project. It's fairly easy to learn and new members catch on rather quickly. Pros The graphics/interface are user friendly and not intimidating. Most helpful is the To-Do list and the ability to incorporate the calendar in Basecamp to Google Calendar. There have been several updates over the past year or so which allow for more customized pings and message board posts. Cons The notification settings are not easily understood. I also think an administrator should be able to pin certain message board posts to the top of all of the message boards if they are important and deserve priority. As it stands now, whenever someone adds a new message all prior messages are moved down. Review Source Angel C. Implementation/Support Analyst Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Use for work" September 12, 2018 3.0 Experience was not bad. I would use it again if I had no other option. The website is good for what it is intended to do Pros Very user friendly. Nothing too complicated with where to find information. Simple look but efficient. Cons Not very friendly went trying to integrate email or features with txt. Would always need to go into the website to get anything done. Review Source AR Aniket R. Founder Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Tool for Team Collaboration" August 21, 2020 4.0 Pros As COVID-19 has drastically increased the online work culture and our company was facing issues initially in task assigment, task completion track and online collaborations. So, We started using Basecamp and it just reduced a lot of work for us by it project management and Cloud storage facility and one of the main factor we love in this is it's EASY OF USE. Cons As a small startup, the main issue we are facing is pricing. Since, It has only one plan to choose and as a small startup we don't need a lot of users in it. So there should be a plan for small startup needs and requirements. Alternatives considered [Workzone](https://www.capterra.com/p/18542/Workzone/) Reason for choosing Basecamp I have chosen Basecamp over Workzone because of pricing and customer's review. Review Source Henry M. Training Manager Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "BaseCamp use for Project Management and Collaboration " April 7, 2018 5.0 We have just been loving this software. We only pay the lowest amount right now and it still gives us all the features! Pros Email notifications regarding project updates and recap emails are a great way to manage progress and see what colleagues are accomplishing. It's super easy to navigate and the interface allows less computer savvy co-workers to easily master it's different features. Cons We have just been loving this software. We only pay the lowest amount right now and it still gives us all the features! Review Source Michelle H. Owner Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great collaboration tool" February 18, 2020 5.0 We have been very happy with Basecamp as a team collaboration tool for many years now. We use it exclusively to keep projects on track and keep everyone in the loop. We highly recommend it to our clients and customers, too. Pros When features that needed to be added were suggested, it didn't take long for the Basecamp team to implement a solution. They listen to their customers needs. Cons I honestly cannot think of anything now that the recurring tasks feature has been added. That was the only 'missing link' when we first switched, but that has now been added and we are happy. Reason for choosing Basecamp Because of the built-in tools to easily see the tasks needed and who was assigned, and keeping documents used by the team organized. Review Source JM John M. CTO Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good but it depends on the version" May 20, 2020 4.0 Basecamp Classic which is I guess version 1 is what we use the most but it looks very dated. It also has choices in very confusing places, even after using it for years a regular user can forget where things are. The calendar view is fantastic. Basecamp V3 looks better but lost a lot of the features we found the most useful including the calendar view. They still support both versions I think because people don't to move to the newer one. Their product roadmap seems to be chaotic or non-existent. All of that said it's still a great simple product that does what you want. Pros Ease of use, calendar view, very low price. Cons Vast differences between the versions and confusing feature differences. Review Source Daniel W. Executive Director & Founder Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great collaborative system for small teams" February 5, 2019 5.0 We are communicating and scheduling more often and getting out announcements in a unified place and platform. Pros We like how easy it is to on-board new team members to our online communication system. We also enjoy the variety of ways we can collaborate with scheduling. Cons We use this system very regularly and wish it could push notifications on smart phone. Review Source Joseph Z. Founder Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for non-project manager types" June 25, 2018 4.0 It allowed me to observe to what extent collaborators were contributing to the project and whether they were regularly engaged. It also was great to use projected onto a screen during meetings so we could discuss various project tasks, and everyone could follow along. Pros I like how people can easily review what other collaborators have done regarding any given project. I also like how communication is facilitated within the platform. Cons Sometimes you have to jump between windows/screens to manage a project. I also think it is two wordy and not visually driven enough for a good UX. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Analísta de Sociales Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I am a businessman and investor and I am currently working on 6 different projects, among which " May 6, 2018 5.0 Basecamp, which offers basic project management tools (task list, file sharing, etc.) Pros Before we started using Basecamp, we used several tools, but none left us totally satisfied. Some of these tools were very powerful, too versatile in fact in relation to the use that was had. The price-quality ratio of these tools did not correspond to a small company like ours. There were also many program options that were not used. We put the tool to a test and were seduced immediately. Cons Basecamp has fewer options than other tools, but the fact is that it is quick and very simple to use. Review Source WD Winston D. Clinical Analyst Biotechnology Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best time/project management tool for the money!" September 12, 2018 4.0 Basecamp helps myself and my team keep track of all ongoing projects and due dates. It offers an unparalleled environment for collaboration and document sharing. I remember when I first started the trial period, I set up my entire to do list..when the trial period was over, I was so lost and disorientated. This was when I knew I had to have it for our team. Pros It is easy to set up your organization and team to start managing your projects right away. You can set up access for users that are outside of your company as well. This is great if you work with a lot of contractors or outside consultants. Access can be very granular if you want it to be, for example, you can show or hide entire companies/organization, projects or teams by user and/or whichever company they are affiliated with. Cons At times, Basecamp can be slow at rolling out new features. With that being said, all the current features that are available works perfectly and is definitely helpful. Although they are slow, they make up for it by allowing integration with third party software and they already have more than a dozen affiliated companies that they integrate with.

We had used Asana and Evernote, and this was easy to transition into from there. Cons We liked the layout and features of Asana better. Review Source Daniel N. Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Used for years, but don't anymore" February 4, 2019 4.0 Pros Basecamp is very easy to use and was the ultimate project management platform for me for years. We would create projects and tasks very simply. It saved emails being lost and tasks overlooked. We used these for small projects and ongoing work. For teams and individuals. Cons Over time, most people switched to Trello and we found fewer companies wanted to use Basecamp with us. I resisted moving to Trello, but once it was part of our usual process we made the full switch to Trello. Basecamp is fine, but Trello was free. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sr. Scientist Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Keeps us all on point" April 22, 2019 4.0 We manage large arts-based projects where tens of people are working together. Basecamp gives us just that, a basecamp from which to operate and to store our stuff. Pros I have found Basecamp to be an easy to navigate software for keeping my participation in projects visible and archiveable. We have been using Basecamp for several years at the museum. For me it replaced a Dropbox and innumerable email chains that were just too unwieldy to be useful. Now our projects are all one stop shopping if you are looking for a file or wanting to make a comment. It is easy to add folks who come in mid-stream on a project, and we can include those that are outside of our organization. It is also always available so long as I have access to the internet - like when traveling. Cons We are getting some upgrades, so I think most of my complaints will soon go away. Being able to create folder structures and having easy archiveability are part of that. Review Source Abdullah N. Game Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "User Friendly with Ease of Use" September 20, 2019 4.0 My overall experience with Basecamp is quite good, its user friendly and makes the tasks more easier to handle. Pros I like Its user friendliness and quite impressed with its ease of use. Its UI is quite simple to be understood, and is easier to set it up and to share data amongst office colleagues. Cons This software is a bit expensive If you are using it as a starter company, as we are using the Flow Plan 1 currently, so sometimes it becomes a bit difficult to pay for its services when even its in not in much use Review Source Similar Products Featured ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
