Excellent UI for all users, regardless of their levels of experience with online collaborative tools. As an account administrator/owner, I can create as many Basecamps as I need, each for a different project. Individuals added to specific Basecamps will only see those that they have been added to. If teams are posting Google Docs or Sheets to Basecamps, the entire content of those documents is searchable.

Basecamp is just incredible! It’s highly user-friendly and straightforward to set up and use! You may set up your Project Boards in a variety of ways, making it highly versatile and powerful. I have tried several Project Management Software applications and none of them come close to this one. The ability to create a combination of statuses and priorities aids in staying focused, and the software’s collaborative capabilities is both easy and powerful.

In my opinion, Basecamp is super easy to use and fetch new clients for projects. After setting up a client on Basecamp, we can submit tasks for them to complete, have them review tasks, and gather important stuff such as logins, time report, etc., from each client. We currently have over 30 clients and their projects added to our Basecamp account, and it works as anew as ever.

The interface is the best thing about Basecamp’s project scheduling software. I have tried and used other project management tools. But all of them feel heavily crowded, and I don’t feel like the claustrophobic looks. This is where the Basecamp is purely a genius. The while and the clean design of Basecamp without compromising any functionality is one of the best things we can get on any application.

I monitor multiple departments in a chemical producing firm, and I use Basecamp for scheduling and conveying tasks to employees. I like the software’s unified approach to schedule tasks & projects across different departments. The customer support staff is also very supportive and helpful. Overall, I love Basecamp.

Basecamp is an excellent online project scheduling software that enables me to track time, schedule resources and projects, etc., that has played a vital role in skyrocketing my revenues.

I would like to consider Basecamp as a substitute for MSProject.

You will get your money’s worth from the software itself and its ease of use.
