helpful organizational tool
What do you like best? The organization of projects and authorization process. What do you dislike? jumping from page to page can be very confusing. It's not the easiest to learn off the bat.

How a digital marketing team uses Basecamp
What do you like best? I like how easy it is to organize, archive and access all of the different projects and discussions I'm involved with. I can immediately find the latest post in a discussion, and I can very easily upload assets to the project/discussions as well. What do you dislike? Sometimes previewing certain types of documents is not the smoothest user experience, requiring me to fully download the file before I can open it, instead of being able to view it in my ...

Team work at its best
What do you like best? Solid program that lets teams and departments collaborate and edit the same document. What do you dislike? not being able to create my own layout and template management in the system. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? solved issues when handling contracts with customers as we have several departments that need to come together on one event.

Basecamp Helps Connect our Company
What do you like best? It is easy to keep track of projects and check what still needs to be done. What do you dislike? Within my specific company, it can be difficult to keep track of what you are waiting for when there are so many projects being worked on all at once. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? This product makes it easy and possible for our out of state marketing team to work closely with our corporate office and ...

A good collaboration and project management system
What do you like best? I like that updates are real time, and there are breadcrumbs throughout the site. What do you dislike? Not everyone utilizes the functionality as it was designed, and not everyone on my team fully uses it. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We work on a myriad of projects that all intersect with one another, whether it be directly or indirectly. Using Basecamp has given the team a place that serves as a ...

Social Media Management
What do you like best? It's an easy way to keep track of the team and tasks. It also helps everyone stay in communication, ask questions, clarify projects, and set deadlines. I like that you can place the to-do list in order of priority and deadline. It's easy to reassign tasks and move things around. What do you dislike? For our company, the To Do lists are getting quite long and it can be difficult to search for each member / project. Recommendations to others considering the ...

Really pleased with Basecamp + its capabilities!
What do you like best? I like the versatitlity - you can create messages, to-do lists, and archive things to help keep current projects organized. What do you dislike? There's not too much I dislike - I use it almost daily and am really pleased with it. It would be nice to have a copy and paste button, meaning if I'll be adding thirty tasks for "newsletter copy" (for example, I have to go in and type out 30 separate tasks Recommendations to others considering the product Have the ...

My go-to platform for large projects
What do you like best? It's intuitive, user-friendly and I've never had any technical issues with this platform (as I have with a few others!. It's easy to keep projects separate, and simple to follow threads, especially when there are multiple users on the same project. What do you dislike? It can have a steep learning curve for first-time users. I first used Basecamp years ago, and after taking a break for a couple of years, I had to re-learn from the ground up when I found it had ...

Basecamp is great for collaboration and managing projects.
What do you like best? What I like best about basecamp is that it is very easy to stay organized with To do items and discussions. What do you dislike? I understand why it is set up this way but sometimes, would like the newest items/information at the top of the discussion chain instead of at the bottom. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Staying organized with projects, reducing the number of emails. It is very easy to refer ...

Great for multiple team organization.
What do you like best? Basecamp can be used in a multitude of ways. My team uses it a lot when working across other teams within our company. Documents can be shared, to-do's can be assigned to individuals, due dates can be set, reminders are sent to emails. Everything about Basecamp makes being organized 100x easier. The calendar view is great because you can see what other's have on their to-do list, however when you have a lot of people using the dashboard the calendar can get very ...
