Basecamp is a web-based project-management tool developed by Basecamp and launched in 2004, with a new version being launched in 2012. Basecamp offers to-do lists, wiki-style web-based text documents, milestone management, file sharing, time tracking, and a messaging system. Basecamp Classic also offers integration with Basecamp's own Campfire product, and features APIs that are used by a host of web and mobile apps. Basecamp Classic's interface is available in different languages (e.g. Spanish, French, Italian, German, Finnish and Japanese). The newer version of Basecamp currently only supports English as the interface language.

| Chief Operations Officer at BeOnline ICT | 4.5 | We primarily use Basecamp for project management due to its ease of use. However, recent updates have made it more complex, particularly when creating teams or projects. It could benefit from improved user-friendliness and additional features for managing software projects. |
| Director InfoSec and Audit at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees | 3.0 | I find this solution stable and useful for informal networking. However, I experience significant issues with its lack of transparency, poor documentation, and unintuitive design, making it difficult to use and learn. |
| Managing Member at Christiano Ferraro Consultancy, LLC | 4.0 | I like its seamless app/website, centralized data, and task management. I wish for contact storage and templates. It's inexpensive and easy to set up, but I question its scalability for my larger teams. |
