Things are easy to find and navigate. Well designed interface, rarely struggle to find options. > > **Cons**: Could use more project timeline-related tools, but then again, it is really good as it is now, based on my experience. > > Very positive. Serves as a central repository and can easily find out project status by visiting basecamp. ----- ### "Best PM software available" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 November 2018* | Plastics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Basecamp's customer service is second to none. Send a request through via email to their support and it's answered (and solved) within minutes. Basecamp combines multiple softwares into one: work chat, task management, project management, and cloud storage. > > **Cons**: The way that emails sent from Basecamp to our clients had none of our own branding on it - they just had Basecamps brand. ----- ### "Basecamp great for collaboration and project management" — 4.0/5 > **Damian** | *21 May 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Basecamp allows for great collaboration. Both internally and with external vendors. Good for project management and assigning tasks to members of a project group. Easy to have back and forth chat on a task/project and copy in others. > > **Cons**: Repetition of notification emails when an update on a project is made and a task is also allocated to someone. > > Great tool for team collaboration, organizing, delegating tasks, staying on track with project timeline/due dates and overall project management. ----- ### "Intuitive management and team collaboration tool" — 4.0/5 > **Elena** | *17 June 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked the most about Basecamp is that their visual interface is different from other productivity / task tools. It's clean and simple. Tasks looks like a receipt where you can ✅ whenever you finish them and that's cool. You can also invite your whole team easily and tag them. File sharing is nice, you can also add some emoji reactions that we (gen z/ millennials) appreciate a lot. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it was difficult to find previous threads and notifications wasn't working. So I've missed some important notices. > > Overall Basecamp is a nice tool for teams or project managers that are looking for something useful and easy to use. You can block access to external users or clients in different sections. If you have any problem (you won't) the customer support answers your questions in less than 48h so I appreciate it. ----- ### "Basecamp 5 is a perfect failure" — 2.0/5 > **Drew** | *1 June 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: Basecamp has been a reliable project management and client collaboration platform since the classic version, delivering consistent core functionality across message boards, to-dos, file storage, campfire chat, and schedules Flat rate Pro Unlimited pricing is genuinely competitive and predictable for teams with large numbers of client users Clients can be added to projects at no additional cost, making it cost-effective for agency and SaaS onboarding workflows The platform served as an effective personalized documentation and training center, with clients actively using every feature > > **Cons**: The Basecamp 5 migration has been the worst product update experience in years of use dating back to Basecamp Classic Dozens of process-breaking workflow changes shipped with no opt-out or legacy mode Admin control over participant notification settings was removed; users must now manage their own notification preferences per project individually, destroying any ability to manage this at scale across hundreds of projects Project list access, archived items, templates, lineup, and other frequently used features were buried behind search bars and nested menus with no direct navigation Support response to every reported issue has been a consistent "sorry, that's the way it is now," with no acknowledgment that the changes broke real workflows > > The Basecamp 5 update has been the worst update migration experience and I've been a user since Basecamp classic. The number of process breaking changes are so long, we stopped tracking them. Basecamp's response, across the board, to each support request has been "sorry, that's the way it is now." ----- Page: 1 / 578\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/56808/basecamp?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/56808/basecamp) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
