Basecamp
Product Details
Overview
Basecamp is more than just a project management tool — it’s a better way to work. Teams that switch to Basecamp are more productive and better organized. With Basecamp, you break up your work into separate projects. Each project contains everything related to the work at hand; all the people involved, every discussion, every document, file, task, important date, etc. Everything!
How it's better: unlike email where everything starts disorganized and you have to constantly manage the chaos, Basecamp projects keep everything organized by default. Things are always where you expect, and it's obvious where to put stuff.
Features
Every project includes the tools all teams need to work together; message boards, to-dos, schedules, docs, file storage, real-time group chat, and automatic check-in questions. You can rename them, turn off the ones you don’t need, or integrate with third-party tools like time trackers to tailor things to the project at hand.
How it's better: spreading work across a bunch of apps is inefficient at best; total chaos at worst. Things slip through the cracks, it’s hard to see the big picture, it’s expensive, onboarding your team is a pain, etc. Basecamp eliminates all of those issues by combining everything you need in one place. It’s “easy mode” for work.
When people post messages in the projects you’re on, assign you tasks, etc. notifications pop up in Basecamp’s Hey! menu (or email, if you like). Need to focus? Pause notifications with a click and stay in the zone. Want to keep work at work? Set your work hours to hold notifications until you’re back on the clock.

How it’s better: a constant barrage of notifications from a half dozen apps steals your attention and lets work intrude on personal time. By centralizing your notifications, Basecamp makes it easy to keep on top of things and minimize interruptions.
