App summary

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.

We test drove other project management apps. None were right for our small real estate development business. We needed a project management app that was lightweight and intuitive so we could get everyone using it with minimal training or friction. Basecamp ticked all the boxes. Creating task lists, communicating, tracking, all the things. And it's a great UX. And the desktop, mobile, and browser versions are all outstanding.

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!

Originally 5 star review moved to 3 now moved to a 1. App has lots of issues staying connected. I try to send messages and it just doesnt work sometimes. It's constantly offline. Slack is so much more adept and functions better (syncs better between mobile and browser, functions better when connection is unstable for instance). Needs a lot of improvement... I can't believe this app is so bad after so many years. What happened to Basecamp and the team there?
