    "Simplified Project Management and Collaboration"

    Posted 2024-01-17

    Pros: A real-time chat function called Campfire and message boards for asynchronous collaboration are both included in Basecamp. These features improve communication inside the platform by facilitating official and informal team interactions.

    Cons: Basecamp is really good at being simple, but it might not have all of the sophisticated capabilities that come with more sophisticated project management software. Businesses with extremely complex project management requirements could find Basecamp's feature set to be too limited.

    Overall: For teams searching for a simple and easy-to-use platform for project management and collaboration, Basecamp is a great option. It is an excellent choice for small to medium-sized teams with clear project objectives because to its simplicity and emphasis on key features.

    "An amazing way to manage multiple projects simultaneously."

    Posted 2023-05-09

    Pros: The main reason why Basecamp is a good option for the administration and management of projects is because this platform has additional functions to manage the capital for each project and thus have a prediction of the results. This capital management feature is great because it allows you to add products, prices, remove repetitive products, gives you unnecessary product suggestions and thus you can save on the preparation of each project. Basecamp allows you to manage all the tasks and manage the status of each one, this will help you to have a continuous monitoring of the fulfillment of each activity related to each project, in addition, Basecamp allows you to manage several projects at the same time, in the main panel you will be able to see the projects that are being executed in each area of your company, is a very powerful tool that supports up to more than 5 projects simultaneously.

    Cons: It is a quite complex platform to use, in addition, users can also present complexity in the initial registration of each employee in the platform, since it must be done individually for each employee, in addition, users must also learn to add relevant information to each task and much more, in general, the platform is very complex to use for the first time. Another negative aspect is the high prices that Basecamp manages, although this aspect has not affected us too much, we do believe that we could obtain better prices in Basecamp's annual plans to have a better ROI.

    Overall: In general, Basecamp has provided significant results in the management and organization of all our projects. We have been executing projects on this platform for approximately 3 years and I must admit that the difference has been noticed compared to old platforms, Basecamp has made our projects reduce expenses, we have been able to make our projects not so expensive and thus have a return more exact, in addition, with Basecamp we have achieved that our employees perform a better collaborative work, now our employees can exchange ideas, exchange assigned tasks, distribute information through a chat and monitor the progress of each project in percentage terms. I find Basecamp to be a very powerful platform and am very pleased to be using such an effective tool.

    "With Basecamp, the success of a project is secured"

    Posted 2023-01-14

    Pros: Basecamp has been able to refine what it means to work on projects. I like that it is so intuitive and the platform feels like you are visiting a very modern and suitable place to start your projects, which is exactly what the program is. It allows for projects to be divided into different categories and create sub-projects in order to be able to manage all the work in a much better way than just working on it without a plan. The dashboard is absolutely amazing and I like how it helps stay on track of all my current assignments and stay focused on what I need to do. Additionally, Basecamp is home for the best communication with the team, it is a software which is incredibly good at managing all the incoming messages from all the members and it centralizes the entire conversation so that it is easy to work on projects with other people.

    Cons: There are many things that Basecamp has continuously added to the program to make it better and they continuously improve the functionality of it, but there are some things that they removed in the process that I would love to have again since they worked a lot for me and for the team. One of them is the old monthly calendar, which allowed me to see all the things scheduled properly displayed and this way it allowed me to have a better control of my daily schedule and my day in general. The second thing that I miss is the fact that it used to allow us to store files in the application in a specific place where team members were able to access it in order to complete part of their tasks.

    Overall: The experience with Basecamp has been good and incredible, it continues to add features that are innovative and can offer a new way to work on projects, it never stays the same old program without any good news, on the contrary, it strives to create a very modern platform that looks for the improvement of project management. Basecamp has been able to support our projects and it has allowed us to communicate with each other during the process of all of them, which is why I feel like it is such an amazing software. It is a program that has so many professional tools that are necessary nowadays for the success of a project.

    "It is a good project solution for small business."

    Posted 2023-01-03

    Pros: + I can organize work teams to have them ready for each project that is being created, I can also create teams during the creation of a project and keep track of the assigned tasks within this platform without much navigation. I like that I can have the ability to create teams because it's easier for me to have to take a team specialized in a task and just add them into a project and assign them tasks which they would take care of how they would be organized internally and how They will execute each task, this helps a lot when creating projects and not needing to discuss the roles of each employee a lot.

    + It has been very useful to have the availability function, this has allowed me to be more organized with the staff available in case someone has a set work schedule or is on vacation or on leave to be unavailable. With this I was able to structure myself well when choosing the right team for each of the projects generated with this platform. If I would like it to go further and not only count the hours that it is outside or where it is, I would also like it to mark that it is within a project of a certain hour or more similar functions.

    + I can import any file or document from practically any cloud storage platform, this gave me the ease of not having to upload the file again from my computer but simply syncing the files I have on different platforms. I can even import the files from other project management platforms, which is very useful when you want to move from another site to Basecamp and thus facilitate the export and import process when integrating Basecamp into your company.

    + Another function that I have found very useful is being able to have notification of the entire work process that is carried out within a project, in addition to also being able to see the status of everything that is being done through a sheet within the main panel route I can also receive emails on the status of each task or action that is carried out within the projects. There is also a section of all pending, in progress and finished tasks that has given a broader vision of how the project has progressed and see how much is left to complete or if there is a setback in relation to the final delivery date.

    Cons: - Its interface is not very customizable, at most you can choose the user's colors, which are also very basic. There are also no workspaces which are currently used within many platforms to have a better workflow and Basecamp does not have it. So I wish I could have more freedom within this platform and not only have to adapt to what is already established, but also that I can choose how I want to organize myself in my day-to-day life, thus having everything more organized and being able to facilitate daily work .

    - There is no time tracker within the projects that are created within Basecamp, it is essential to have this function within this platform and not depend on third parties to be able to track the times of each assigned task. So I don't want to rely on integrations with other platforms to do this job, but I would like it to be included within Basecamp to make the job much easier and not have to jump from platform to platform to do this job.

    - The chat should improve, it is very simple to have a conversation, even social networks have more functions and that is not very good for the professional field. To solve this I preferred to use Slack as it allows me better and clear communication without losing the thread of the conversation. Through an automation platform I was able to integrate Slack with Basecamp to maintain a better workflow when managing my projects, otherwise it would not be possible to maintain communication between all the teams or departments since with Basecamp chat it is almost impossible do it right.

    - It is not possible to edit documents within this platform and it makes it impossible to work collaboratively on them, at least not in Basecamp because you have to resort to third parties to do this work, however, it is not efficient to do it this way either because you have to have someone in charge to update these documents in each edition or do an automation from an intermediary platform. I didn't like that I have to do a lot of integrations to do something that other project management platforms already have included. Basecamp falls a bit short with several features that make this platform look like a simple project manager for small businesses and not for more professional environments such as medium and large companies.

    Overall: Basecamp is quite focused on simplicity and ease of project management and that is what I liked about this platform since I had no problems implementing it within my company, I did not even require training to understand how to use it. I did not use this platform nor did I have any difficulty understanding how its tools work. I have been able to effectively keep track of most of my company's projects and I have also been able to work collaboratively without any confusion in the process, this has been the basis of being able to have a good workflow by having a project and task management platform such as Basecamp. I really liked the price for being able to add unlimited users within the platform without having to pay for an extra user, this allowed me to even include clients within Basecamp to be able to integrate them into the tracking of the processes that are executed during development of a project and yes allow you not to miss every aspect and development.

    "Basecamp helps manage multiple projects at the same time and helps collaboration."

    Posted 2022-12-10

    Pros: Basecamp is an incredible platform to design all kinds of projects, it doesn't matter if they are short-term or long-term projects, this platform notes the type of project and also allows you to add a lot of participants to carry out a specific project, one of the main things that interests me. What I liked about this platform is that it offers two views and it also offers two views of the type of project being created, it allows you to create projects in the form of columns or in the form of a board, and the main page or the main panel of the platform allows you to view the projects in column view and starts with boards, although really within this platform I like the column view better, since it divides each of the projects by the status of each project, each column reflects the projects that are in course, the projects complete the pending projects to start, this column view helps a lot to be able to visualize or monitor the amount of e projects that have been completed or the number of pending projects, unlike the dashboard view that shows projects in an overview, without breaking them down by status. Another of the features that I like about this platform is that it is fully customizable, within the platform's configuration to be able to modify its color and the general design, as well as the text font of the entire platform, in addition, there is also a section that allows you to monitor all the tasks that are running or the complete tasks of each project, without a doubt it has many sections that allows you to monitor tasks, monitor projects and also monitor the budget of each project.

    Cons: One of the main problems or necessary functions within this platform is the Gantt diagram. Currently, this platform does not have statistics or the type of diagrams that help to understand the process or the progress that is being made in the projects in a much more graphic way. , I consider that this diagram is very necessary so that all users can visualize the progress in real time of each project, and can understand the phases that have been executed for each project during each day that has elapsed, I hope that this diagram is implemented in This platform as soon as possible is very necessary to correctly understand the progress of the projects. Another of the negative things about this platform is how limited that person is, since it only allows you to create some projects, in addition, there are also limits to the number of participants or employees that you can add to the project that I am developing, I do not recommend this version at all free, it is very limited and also limits the number of tasks that can be run simultaneously, I really only recommend using the paid version. In addition, it is also negative that this platform is very complex to learn to use, despite the fact that it has a very familiar interface with the user that allows the user to customize it to their liking, starting to use this platform can be a bit complex for new users, it has very difficult to use functions.

    Overall: Basecamp has been one of the most important platforms within my real estate company, I feel comfortable using this platform since within the company we prepare many projects on a weekly and monthly basis, but I can still control the progress of each project, In addition, I was able to control the number of participants that exist within a specific project. I really liked the head I had with this platform. When I started using it, it was quite a complex process to adapt to the functions, since I didn't understand how I should use it. to create new projects, however, after a week of use, I learned how to use it and managed to integrate it with cloud storage services and data flow automation services. Currently, most of the employees in our company are using it constantly since we have assigned it as the only platform to develop projects in our company, I feel very comfortable with that platform in general, I loved the fact that I could fully customize it, In addition, I loved the fact of being able to harmonize all the budget available for each project, I also liked the fact of being able to monitor in real time the progress of each project and each activity that is being developed, this platform also allowed me to measure the time that It took each employee to complete an activity, without a doubt it is a very complete platform and I recommend it for any company to start developing a very consolidated and beneficial project system.

    "The ultimate tool for Projects and tasks"

    Posted 2022-11-11

    Pros: The best aspect of Basecamp is the ability to organize different projects in the dashboard, getting the status of projects is easy. The user interface is super smooth and clean. Its discussion board helps in making a goal path. Appealing card view of tasks.

    Cons: In my 1 year of usage, I haven't found any downside.

    Overall: Basecamp is the ultimate solution with powerful reporting, task tracking, organizing different projects, and file for project management. It's super easy to onboard, no technical training is required if you used any project management tool in past. Overall it's an amazing tool.

    "Organizes the team and workflows"

    Posted 2022-11-10

    Pros: With the new version I really like the ability to organize the team, assign tasks and see progress and the ability to keep a lot of different conversations about a project in one place with a logical organization. What's nice about Basecamp is they really thought about the different stages of a project, from brainstorming through execution and data collection, and created something that lets a team work over a distance by organizing information and making sharing easy.

    Cons: There are a lot of notifications. This can replace email but you really need to get used to the settings and make it work for you or it can be overwhelming to see so many different places you can put files or conversations.

    Overall: Overall if you're looking to use this for team communications, information sharing and meetings it rivals things like Microsoft Teams while feeling much more friendly.

    "Basecamp keeps everyone coordinated"

    Posted 2022-11-04

    Pros: The basecamp platform is incredibly simple to learn and adopt. Easy to manage different tasks in one session. Its team chatting hub helps to collaborate with coworkers. You can share files directly from Basecamp instead of switching to a file storage platform. Its To-do task function is very handy.

    Cons: Its time-tracking thing is not reliable. Sometimes it freezes and sometimes it shows nil data.

    Overall: We use Basecamp across different teams to work productively and coordinated with everyone. Its team communication functions work great. Its task reminder comes with a lifesaving feature that keeps you reminded to finish tasks before the deadline.

    "Excellent budget management and correct administration of short and long term projects."

    Posted 2022-10-18

    Pros: Basecamp is a very functional system that provides excellent benefits to develop all kinds of projects, with the help of this platform you will be able to have a correct organization of the number of projects that are carried out within your work environment, regardless of the location of your sector, With the help of your platform you will strengthen collaborative work, you will be able to carry out work online with the collaboration of your work team, in addition, you will be able to have an administration of all the activities that have to be carried out to develop an optimal project. One of the main things that I like about this platform is that you can change the way you visualize all the projects that are being developed, there is a board view that allows you to see in a general way each of the projects that are being developed in your company, in addition, you can also use the list view that will allow you to see separately the number of projects that exist within a specific sector, as well as you can also organize these lists by projects that have been combined and pending projects. In addition, I love the fact that I can see all the activities in real time, within each project, I will be able to see in real time if any activities that have been scheduled by Yosh have been completed, within this section you can also see all pending activities, and overdue activities. Also, I love that this platform allows me to control the budget for each of the projects, it allows me to insert each of the materials that will be used for a specific project, and it also allows me to insert the amount of money that is spent for each one. of materials, in order to reduce the cost of each project and save money.

    Cons: One of the main problems that I have noticed within this platform is the minimalist interface, it is a fairly broad interface that allows it to be viewed in a general way all the projects and activities that are currently being developed, however, this minimalist interface can also be a problem when you have many projects going on at the same time, you will present several confusions to find a specific project or a specific activity. Another of the negative things about this platform is that it is quite expensive, I have made a comparison between this platform and other software in charge of project management, and I have noticed that this software is quite expensive compared to its alternatives, I consider that each one Most of the plans have quite professional features and tools that will develop an optimal project, however, it is very necessary that cheaper and more accessible plans be implemented for users.

    Overall: Basecamp It has been a magnificent software, despite the fact that we have obtained a fairly high rate for using these services, I consider that it has been very useful throughout my company, I consider that this software has allowed me to develop quality projects, in addition, We have been able to control all the activities that need to be carried out at a specific time. I am happy with the general results provided by this platform, I consider that the experience it has given me has made it possible for us to develop projects in the different areas of the company, it is important to highlight that this platform is not only being used in this corporate sector, but also which also has the participation of various employees from the marketing, finance, projects and also the sales agent sector. I loved the overall experience, it was quite comfortable using this platform for all this time, I have been using this platform for more than a year to manage short and long term projects and manage all kinds of budgets.

    "Solves basic project coordination and task management problems."

    Posted 2022-09-22

    Pros: ° Its interface design is very simple, anyone with little knowledge of project management would be able to manage a simple project with this platform without any loss. It's amazing how empowering everything is so easy to find, without any loss and with a modern minimalist design that helps the user find everything easier and makes it easy on the eye.
    ° It has an integrated chat that helps maintain the order of communication within the participants who manage the project. This helps a lot because external programs are not required when you need to report something that is wrong and all this can be done from the BaseCamp platform.
    ° I can invite clients to participate in projects. Just as if it were one more employee, I can add the clients that are involved in a project to make it easier to report the status of each project involved and have everything clearer and more concise for the clients.
    ° Quick access to the platform, as well as to its registration. It was not difficult for me to put a few data on this platform, it did not ask for so much personal data to be able to complete the registration. In addition, its unique session is not complicated like other platforms that have unnecessary protocols that the platform has to be able to access, I prefer to be able to access easily to avoid setbacks in the projects that I am going to manage.
    ° I have excellent collaboration where I can assign tasks, share projects, complete steps. Everything in one place without the need to resort to external programs that further complicate the way in which a project is managed.

    Cons: ° Neither large-scale projects can be managed due to its simplicity. If what you are looking for is more professional tools, Basecamp would not be for you because this platform is very simple to leave me a great job.
    ° Personalization is very limited. Although the colors of the theme can be edited, when we talk about functionalities it falls short in relation to how we can edit the functionalities within the main panel.
    ° It is not possible to view more than one project. It is convenient to be able to use Basecamp but at the same time that this functionality is missing it makes it look impractical when you want to manage several projects without leaving the main panel.
    ° I don't know how well it integrates with other platforms, which is very limiting, the fact of not being able to have everything within a single platform when it comes to marketing or CRM, it would be more like if you could work with other similar applications without leaving Basecamp.
    ° The application in Androis tends to crash and a lot. Giving me the main problem that notifications do not arrive on time, I have lost many of the notifications of the assigned tasks because on devices with the Android operating system there is a small delay in sending what is pending within Basecamp when there is a ongoing project to manage.

    Overall: Basecamp is a quick solution to those projects that need little management without so many details when it comes to reporting the work of an assigned task. With Basecamp you can manage projects from small businesses without worrying about having a negative return on investment since the ease in which its functions are and how quickly a project can be managed makes everything go ahead and say as you go. . You can even consider this platform in case of medium-sized projects, this platform can become something professional if you want or need it, already with high-grade projects you would have to think about it due to the limitation of the administrative functionalities of a project.

    "Complete experience in the development of short and long term projects with collaboration."

    Posted 2022-08-29

    Pros: The creation of projects is something quite important within the company, since we do everything possible so that there is a massive participation of our employees in the development of projects in the short and long term. Basecamp has behaved wonderfully and has provided perfect tools to develop projects in an organized and collaborative way, the thing that I have liked the most is:

    - You have an excellent chat system in real time, in real time it helps you to communicate immediately with your work team, this Chat works 24 hours a day and helps projects to be developed with stable communication.

    - The progress of the projects can be viewed in real time, within the main panel you will be able to see all the changes and the activities that your employees are developing at a specific moment, in addition, you will be able to see the participants for each activity in real time.

    - Within each project, each employee will have the power to include more people within the project, so that it is collaborative work and that they receive support from their work colleagues. This feature is very important and helps you complete the project faster.

    - I love that this platform also allows me to manage the budgets for each project, I can manage the number of tools and things that will be used for each project, and thus reduce the costs of the budget.

    Cons: I have never really presented any type of problem with this platform, all the projects have been carried out successfully, in addition, we have been using it for more than a year and we have noticed that all the functionalities have fulfilled their main objective, and have contributed a creation of long-term management projects. The only negative thing about this platform is regarding its general interface, as the overview can turn out to be a bit simple for some people, the overview of the projects is not neat, you see all the projects that are being developed but you cannot filter any of them, to find them more specifically, there is no way to divide the projects that are being developed, all the projects are together within a main panel, it is a negative factor and I hope that you are interested in general and administration and visualization of the projects is improved within the platform.

    Overall: Basecamp is a really advanced software that will provide quite a slick project creation system, that this platform has been really easy to use, it took us about a week to adapt to all the project creation tools and functionalities, also we have integrated a great list of contacts of all our employees so that each one of them can have a collaborative work in the development of projects. I am very happy with the results obtained so far, I consider that this platform has had a very good performance within my company, it has helped us to develop real estate projects in a matter of days. The projects within our company have improved in an exempt way, in addition, we have noticed that now our employees work together, they can share ideas and solutions to complete activities and that the projects are developed much faster. I am very grateful to this platform for having given me such a complete experience.

    "A reliable system to develop projects and favor collaborative work in the company."

    Posted 2022-08-22

    Pros: Basecamp has been a very necessary service for our company and especially for our projects sector, it has been the main platform that we have been using to develop projects in the short or long term, in addition, the availability of this platform to perform various functions at the same time. time is what we love the most, we can measure work time, measure the workforce of each of the employees, the things that I liked the most about this platform are the following:

    1.- Within this platform you will have the opportunity to visualize, monitor and count the time your employees work, in addition, you will be able to know how much time they invest in completing each of the activities that have been previously planned, this functionality is one of the most important because it helps you visualize the workforce of each employee, you can see how much effort they are making and how many hours of work they have done on a specific day.

    2.- Another thing that I love about this platform is that you can view the activities that are being developed in real time, from the main panel and with the column view you can view each of the activities that are in progress in an orderly manner. development, the pending activities and the activities that are delayed, this panel and that visualization help to monitor in a more continuous way each one of the activities and the responsibility that the employees are having to develop the activities on time.

    3.- The alert and notification system is also perfect within this platform, I really like it because it alerts you when I am going to be late or has not been delivered in the planned time, in addition, it also sends you notifications when it has been added a new activity to planning.

    4.- I also like the application for mobile devices, this application is really very well used, it helps you to monitor all the employees and plan activities within the projects in a matter of seconds and only using your cell phone.

    5.- Real-time chat is also beneficial within the platform, this chat helps all employees to communicate during each activity or each development of a specific project, this chat is divided among participants, that means that each team will have a specific channel so that you can communicate with your colleagues.

    Cons: Really, the only criticism I have about this platform is regarding its interface, I consider that the interface is quite simple, within the main panel you can view the different projects that are being developed in the different sectors of your company, however I have navigated in the various sections of the platform and the reports section and I consider that the general interface is quite simple, this platform should have a much more optimal and professional design to allow users to feel much more comfortable thanks to a much more personalized design. Regarding the general functionality of this platform, I consider that at no time have they given me any type of error, I do not have any type of complaints regarding the functionalities or tools provided during all this time, I consider that it is behaved to the extent and it has fulfilled its objective within the development of work projects, I have no complaints about the functions.

    Overall: Basecamp is a software that is really worth it for any company, I would recommend it for small, medium or large companies, it does not matter from which company you place it, in the same way it will provide innovative results and will give you a fairly good return on investment, since it is a fairly cheap software that offers really accessible plans. I am satisfied with the results obtained so far, I have been using this platform within my company for approximately two years, I work in the project center as a manager and this platform has been really key to developing long-term projects within my company, we constantly have to review projects for innovation and improvement of the properties that are sold in this company, and this platform has been key to developing all these projects on time. In addition, with the help of this platform I have managed to unite our work team so that they have greater collaboration, this platform encourages collaboration between teams, helps them to support each other in various activities to develop them on time. I am grateful for all the results obtained, I consider that it has had a positive impact on my company during all this time.

    "A reliable system to carry out short and long-term projects, with constant monitoring of employee activities."

    Posted 2022-07-22

    Pros: Basecamp is an excellent service to carry out all kinds of projects and manage the participation of each of the employees or people integrated in a project. One of the main things that I liked about this platform is that it allows me to coordinate the projects and tasks that each employee has to review to progress during this project, I work in the corporate sector, so the planning of the activities of my company must be done by me, so this platform has been quite collaborative for me, it has allowed me to divide the tasks according to the number of employees incorporated into a project, this way you can have a much more organized development process. The communication channel is another of the positive characteristics, since it allows us to generate all kinds of activities while we communicate with each other, we can share all kinds of messages during this chat channel, while we carry out different activities for the development of a project, too, Within this platform I can have control of the work hours of each of our employees, I can know exactly who has already fulfilled their duties during their working day, as well as who has missing work hours.

    Cons: The learning curve of this platform can be a bit difficult for some people, this project management platform is not easy to use at all, organizing the calendar and column views is quite difficult for some employees in this company, so I believe that this platform should include a user manual so that new users can quickly jump on them and understand how to change the display of projects to a much more generalized display. The general platform is quite difficult to use, it is quite difficult to add tasks and manage the working hours of each employee individually, so the fact that some user manual system is integrated is quite urgent. I have no complaints regarding the operation of this platform, it has always provided effective functions, and has allowed us to develop projects in a positive way at all times.

    Overall: Previously, it was quite complicated to manage the large number of projects that we carry out in our company, due to the fact that we carry out new projects on a weekly basis, however, after the arrival of Basecamp, everything changed radically in a positive way, the project administration became in a much simpler process, currently, I can know exactly the projects that are being developed within our company, as well as I can learn much more about the participation that the employees are having in the development of the project, I am grateful for this platform because it has helped me a lot to progress within my company, it has allowed us to have greater success and higher remuneration in the long term. The administration of Gollito with the help of this acid platform is followed because I can have constant monitoring of the tasks that the three employees are developing to finish the projects, I can know exactly which employee is absent and which employee is working hard , as well as I can know the hour of work that each one of the employees dedicates in the elaboration of their activities. It is a fairly comfortable platform, a better learning curve must still be incorporated.

    "Store short-term and long-term project data."

    Posted 2022-02-25

    Pros: The projects in our company are quite consistent, month after month, we carry out various projects such as property renovations or property constructions. For us, Basecamp has played quite an important role as it has helped us to develop those projects on a large scale. One of the things that I liked the most are:

    - Basecamp monitors the work time within the project of all the members. I can easily see what the members have worked on, this information is public and all colleagues can see it without any type of limit.

    - Basecamp's communication channels are impressive, the channels are divided by work groups and thus it is easier to contact people closest to you or in your work area. The channels help us to share ideas to optimize the project, it helps us to plan very well what we are going to do and it also allows us to know exactly the progress we have in the project.

    - It offers us a predictive system, which makes an automatic prediction where we can see what performance the project may have in the future, depending on the work data collected in recent days.

    - In our sales sector, I have been able to assign responsibilities to each employee, so that they contribute to the projects of our company, it is very easy to know exactly if they are complying with the assignments made in Basecamp, in addition, Basecamp sends alerts for when the subject almost finish.

    Cons: Our experience has had more positive than negative factors, we have had a great use of Basecamp and it has contributed to the development of our projects, however, there is a negative factor that is important to mention so that it can be optimized, this negative factor is:

    - Learning to use Basecamp was quite complicated. Despite the fact that it has been a platform that has given us excellent long-term results in the development of our projects, when we started using the platform we were quite confused, it was very complicated for us to register subjects, and it was also difficult for us to insert documents and files to the project. They were functions that at first we did not understand very well but with time, we adapted. It would be better if Basecamp came bundled with a user manual to help users quickly adapt to the features.

    Overall: Every month, we carry out various property remodeling projects and we also carry out projects to make property auctions. For us, Basecamp has been very useful, since we have registered the progress of the renovations of the properties and we can know exactly what percentage we need to finish the property. In addition, with Basecamp we can keep a record of all the remodeling that we have done, without the need to do a long paperwork that only takes time away from work. Basecamp is an amazing platform for storing data from projects we're doing at any given time, we're grateful for how helpful Basecamp has been.

    "Love Using This for Team Management "

    Posted 2022-02-24

    Pros: I love being able to upload videos/documents, have a general communication platform, and have a schedule all within one spot. This has greatly helped with team communication and organization! I will continue to use this platform going forward, as it has really changed how my team run for the better.

    Cons: I find it annoying that when entering multiple people in the 'ping' bar, you cannot exit the contact search bar without having to re-type all the names. But besides that, I love using it and the re-typing is really not that big of a deal.

    Overall: Overall, I would recommend this platform to anyone looking to improve team efficiency and coordination!

    "Great Value"

    Posted 2022-01-16

    Pros: Great for project management and To Dos. Simple and easy to use. I also love the message board feature for pitching ideas. Love it.

    Cons: It's not really built for synchronous communication so not really a con, but their real time chat is not comparable to other solutions.

    Overall: Would recommend it in a heartbeat! Fantastic, stable product! I also like that it works great on a browser and on mobile.

    "Good basic project management tool "

    Edited 2021-12-31

    Pros: * Easy to use/learn interface
    * Ability to tag users
    * Nice admin portal
    * Nice price that isn't based on user count

    Cons: * Confusing to have pings(messages) and chat boards in the tool and couldn't toggle them off. We use different tools for some of those things and it added confusion to our team.

    Overall: Good basic project management tool with additional communication options within the tool. We ultimately needed additional functionality and moved away from the tool in the end though.

    "Basecamp, organize your time and projects"

    Posted 2021-08-17

    Pros: Basecamp has the ability to integrate with many third-party applications that further promote its use. It has very extensive customization options that allow us to modify the interface to our liking, in order to be more ergonomic and adjusted to each user.

    Cons: It is a good idea the mobile application, quite useful for organization, however this tends to present symptoms of slowness after being using it for a while, which hinders the user experience, sometimes I was forced to look for the computer to be able to manage tasks.

    Overall: With the Basecamp software we organize our work in the company, in this way we can make a long follow-up of the projects that are being executed, and keep up to date with the progress in the investigations, all in an automated way which gives us more time.

    "Basecamp can be used to create plans on any scale"

    Posted 2021-04-26

    Pros: Work planning documents can be easily shared through Basecamp's dashboard system, and in general all content within these dashboards can be freely segmented or split, demonstrating a platform with a high level of interactivity.

    Cons: When wishing to hold any type of meeting within Basecamp, we have found that Basecamp greatly limits the direct communication capacity that can be exercised within the platform, so it has been best to adapt to work through the boards, without immediate interactions between employees.

    Overall: Basecamp keeps all the information coming in and out of the platform organized, and it is easy to know which of the group members has provided certain information, in case corrections need to be made to some parts of that information. Although the software does not implement video calls, it is possible to communicate through a convenient chat tool.

    "Easy to use and simple"

    Posted 2021-04-13

    Pros: This is a tool that doesn't require any education and background — just sign up and start using. Very intuitive and easy to use. Very convenient document previews and user management. Easy to pay and expand your plan. Nice, but not perfect mobile app for iOS and Android.

    Cons: Very limited in features (it is a very beginners version of PM tool), To-do's are not connected to topics, can't tag or categorize topics, can assign a task to more than one user, can't mention people in posts.

    Overall: When I worked at an agency, we used this tool to manage ongoing marketing projects with customers. We built campaigns in the tool — including copy, design, templates, and additional technical things for our customers' surveys. Pretty user friendly, easy to learn, and very intuitive. I can't say I was missing something major while using it and would recommend to small-ish companies.
