About this app

The refreshingly simple, and remarkably effective, project management platform.

Managing people and projects under pressure is tough enough. Unfortunately, lots of software makes it worse by over-complicating things. Basecamp’s different.

What makes Basecamp special?

It’s dialed in. For nearly two decades, we’ve continually refined a unique set of tools and methods to fundamentally reduce complexity, and make project management more of a joy and less of a chore. Perfected and pressure-tested by hundreds of thousands of teams on millions of projects, Basecamp’s the gold standard for a simpler, superior version of project management.

Basecamp works because it’s the easiest place for everyone in every role to put the stuff, work on the stuff, discuss the stuff, decide on the stuff, and deliver the stuff that makes up every project. Not on separate platforms scattered in various places, but all intuitively organized in one centralized place where everyone can work together.

Basecamp’s intentionally simple by design. It’s why teams that sometimes leave in search of “more power” end up slamming into the consequences of over-powered software: Complexity. Complexity doesn’t work. Basecamp does. It’s why those that leave end up coming back and sticking with us the second time around. You never know what you had until it’s gone.

Two stars due to a mix of the general structure of Basecamp, and the sheer amount of use it gets by my fire department. The option to either get notified about EVERYTHING or only when you're tagged/pinged is a bit too broad. My agency adds documents and training info and other notifications multiple times daily which basically creates a ton of noise with no way to actually filter out what I need to know vs. info not relevant to me.

The company I work for uses Basecamp countless times on a daily basis. On desktop computers. The app...is another story. I have never had full functionality of the app on my phone. 95% of the time no campfire conversations, pings, to-do's etc etc ever loaded, regardless of how long I waited. The other 5% of the time it functioned after restarting the app multiple times. Since the most recent couple of updates, it now doesn't load 100% of the time. This kind of app is not viable for start-ups at!

The new UI update is not good for users like myself with lots of projects. The compact list view is gone, as is the option to view archived projects. All that's left are these giant cards that only display a few characters of the title. It's not useful at all. Even on the desktop version they took away the option to make list view the default. I'm getting tired of these "one size fits all" design choices that clearly don't work for everyone. Give me a toggle so I can go back to using the app like it was before.
