Useful, but not great.

What do you like best? The interface is great, it is very easy to watch a project's completion. What do you dislike? The mobile app doesn't have push notifications and you end up with a ridiculous amount of emails clogging your inbox as you collaborate. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Making simple to-do's and updating projects on the go. It's a bit easier than forwarding emails and text messages around to the proper person.

Best program project and department management

What do you like best? I worked in a company where some of the department members worked remote. Basecamp gave us a why to keep track of department projects, assign roles and deadlines. Alerts were sent when a part of that project was completed or deadline missed. What do you dislike? I don't have any dislike. The program met all my department needs. Recommendations to others considering the product Basecamp is also a great "to do list" program with reminders and alerts. Make sure ...

BASECAMPS HELPS KEEP YOU ORGANIZED

What do you like best? Basecamp allows me to have multiple projects open to work on with various teams. This allows us to work easily and review and share files quickly. It also helps me as an admin to watch over whats happening between third party vendors and my teams. I can help answer questions and get things on track easily. What do you dislike? I wouldn't say I dislike anything, Basecamp is constantly getting better and easier to use. I think layout could be improved upon ...

An awesome tool for managing projects.

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? One of the best things I love about Basecamp is its ability to get project teams up to speed whenever there are changes or additions made with project items. I'v been a user for more than 5 years and have seen tremendous improvements made over the years. They're not the type who just sits there and promote their product. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The thing that I don't like with Basecamp (this may have ...

Great Communications, File Storage, Planning option

What do you like best? Store files and have conversations that don't get lost in your email. What do you dislike? Organization of files is sometimes tricky, but I think that is due to who is actually "managing" our Basecamp. Recommendations to others considering the product Make sure to set your file folders right away as if they aren't specific enough files get messy early and it's hard to back track. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...
