Basecamp
The calm, organized way to manage projects and communicate company-wide.
Basecamp is a project management and team collaboration platform that consolidates tasks, discussions, file storage, messaging, and client communication into a single organized workspace. It is designed to be straightforward and clutter-free, replacing tools like Slack, Asana, and Dropbox. The product is developed by 37signals, a company with over two decades of continuous operation.
Basecamp organizes all project work — tasks, discussions, files, schedules, and messaging — into structured project spaces accessible to the whole team and optionally to clients.
Small to medium-sized businesses, freelancers, agencies, and client services teams
