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. ----- ### "Happy Campers\!" — 5.0/5 > **Mai** | *28 February 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have thoroughly enjoyed how streamlined communications with clients have become. I am able to seamlessly communicate with remote clients and share files with ease\! > > **Cons**: Thus far, no cons\! Ultimately, communication is UP and errors are DOWN\! The implementation of the platform has helped clarify where the team is on a project\! > > In short, the experience has been nothing but positive\! The platform implementation was seamless and user friendly\! We are all feeling an increase in transparency across the board\! ----- ### "A Clear and Simple Way to Manage Work" — 4.0/5 > **Abby** | *24 September 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Here are the top reasons Basecamp works well for our team: • Somewhat intuitive and easy to onboard new team members. • Centralizes communication: message boards, chat, automatic check-ins that we can house with designated project spaces. • Encourages organized structure – for each project, you can keep tasks, files, discussions all in context, reducing emails or other project management tools. > > **Cons**: Some challenges we've had: • There are some missing advanced project management features like task dependencies, subtasks and more robust reporting. • Limited flexibility/customization: our workflow is complex (multiple phases, branching, conditional flows), Basecamp has felt restrictive at times. • Notifications are sometimes overwhelming with the amount of to-dos we input. Sometimes we miss or lose track of important alerts. • We have found issues with inconsistency between desktop app notifications and the web version. The desktop app works better for me. • No built-in time tracking, which would be nice given we have to submit timesheets. > > We've used Basecamp for over a year across our 10-person marketing team. Overall, it’s been valuable for keeping communication, project tasks, and file management in one place. It's especially helpful given most of our team is remote. However, there are trade-offs. There are things that work well and what could be improved, from my perspective. If your team values simplicity, clarity and housing discussions/tasks/files in one unified workspace, Basecamp is a strong tool. For organizations pursuing highly detailed project planning, deep customization or advanced analytics, you may find there are limitations. ----- ### "Not the most user-friendly app" — 3.0/5 > **Caitie** | *27 March 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I didn't find basecamp to be very user friendly, the interface is a bit scattered and confusing, and I didn't like the way it was organized. > > **Cons**: The interface, the difficulty of finding where things were, and the constant confusion when trying to navigate within the app. > > I wasn't impressed with basecamp overall. As mentioned I had a tough time finding where things were and staying organized in the app. ----- 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
