Basecamp I've always loved Basecamp and have used it for a variety of projects and for personal use as well. It's simple enough to wrap your head around but still has the features you need to get stuff done. It's by far my favorite project & management and team communication tool out there. Additionally, they have a great email app, Hey, which has worked wonders in terms of literally saving me hours a week. Their books It Doesn't Have To Be Crazy At Work and Rework are some of my favorites, and their Rework podcast is one of my favorites as well. Their customer support is some of the best I've seen, often getting back in two or three minutes. Plus, their pricing is extremely fair, and on the low end for all the features provided. I love the fixed pricing model vs per user. All things considered, I highly recommend Basecamp.

It is a very simple project management… It is a very simple project management tool that does a lot things decently, just not great. It can do a checklist, but not recurring to-dos. Attached files get embedded so they take up a ton of space. The design of the interface is visually appealing but not the best user experience. The search doesn't do a great job. The folder and document management system is very simplistic. The clientside emails have problems with nested threads and no signature. It is great if you're looking for something simple or work with a lot of contractors that can be added to on a per-project basis. It could be so much better if they'd listen to their users more. I would have switched away a long time ago if it wouldn't be such a nightmare to move project management platforms.

Fan since 2006 I've been a fan of their apps, and their books like 'Rework', since about 2006

Fan since version 1 I’ve been using Basecamp since version 1 and I always loved it. Sure, there are some features that I’m missing sometimes. But every time I try out other project management software, I am overloaded by dozens of features I don’t need. So I guess it’s nicer to miss one or two big features than having way too many. The biggest advantage over their competition is the communication with your clients. No other software has this nailed down quite as Basecamp. Comparing Basecamp to its competition, for me, is like comparing Mac OS to Windows. One feels like it’s designed by an actual designer who has the end user in mind, the other feels like you had some engineers hack together every possible feature and later on get a few designers put everything together, without them talking to each other. There is only one thing that bites me every month: the price. Sure it’s worth it, but I know that it was less expensive in the beginning. And that bothers me, because as I said I’ve been using Basecamp since version 1, but at some point I had to create a new account and so I lost the lower price. That makes me sad every month.

Basecamp is a fantastic tool Basecamp is a fantastic tool. I was disappointed when they discontinued their free and tiered versions few years ago. But now, with this update, small businesses can thrive. On Nov 2019 they launched Basecamp Personal, which I find suitable for my needs
