Great Platform for Collaboration Between Businesses
Our company mostly used Basecamp in conjunction with our larger partner. We are a non-profit rehabilitation and rehoming facility for horses and worked with a large racetrack program which used Basecamp and we briefly also paid to use Basecamp ourselves. When the larger partner had horses that we would work together on (a shared case or project so to speak), they would create a shared project for that case.
It made document and progress sharing incredibly easy. Users from their end and ours could both contribute, chat, and easily find files or request them from each other as needed. It streamlined the process greatly from the days of scanning and emailing documents or trying to send physical documents via courier or mail.
Pros
Basecamp is a great service if you're managing a lot of files and sharing them with a large team or even other business partners. It makes sharing files and tracking project progress easy.
Cons
It was a bit more complex than our small business/non-profit needed, so we didn't feel like we were using enough of the features to justify the (pretty reasonable) cost.

Good beginner project management
Overall, not a terrible platform but it had limitations that held our team back
Pros
The notepad option was very handy for our everyday use and it was easy for the whole team to use
Cons
It was good for content management but for project management it was very limited. There was no GANTT option and we could not see project statuses at a glance.

Collaboration with Basecamp is simple
The layout is simple, and I like that all the discussions, files, and tasks related to a project are all in one place. As a result, we have improved our collaboration and clarity, while we do have some issues with file structure occasionally. Basecamp had simple, focused team collaboration, and I picked it for that reason. Having the ability to bounce off design inspiration or spend time brainstorming ideas in the same space means no more scattered communication on emails or multiple platforms needed. The resultant streamlined approach paves the path to creativity and tanks the design process multiple times.
Pros
What sets Basecamp apart is that it has a central communication hub along with tasks and lists to keep everything organized in one location. The automatic check-in feature on the platform helps team members frequently share updates on their progress, allowing for seamless communication and holding everyone in one piece throughout the design process.
Cons
Basecamp itself is a useful app, but their file management system could be better since there is no sorting and tagging as advanced as in CI or GitLab. It would also be extremely helpful to further customize the notification system so that users could more specifically tailor alerts based on urgency or relevance to reduce notification fatigue.

Better suited to larger projects but still useful for smaller teams
Used for mostly small projects, feels like overkill for anything with minimal moving parts, so other tools such as trello might be more suitable for those, but more than does the job and can be a good push to use some of the more in depth functionality to improve efficiency / comms / files/todos etc
Pros
Extensive suite of features, can manage large projects easily and across larger teams, and with several complex moving parts. Good file storage, threads, to dos, can do a lot with it
Cons
Can be overly complex/overkill for smaller projects. Needs a bit of tweaking to get it to match your requirements re: communications cadence, use of features, and mild training with internal/external team

Basecamp usage from a freelancer's perspective
Excellent. Would highly recommend it to other freelancers like myself.
Pros
It had a simple UI which was easy to use and always on point. It did not have any fluff and it did not require me to spend an additional 5 minutes to interpret each page. It was also easier for my clients from smaller towns (who were not as tech friendly) to adopt to.
Cons
The page would look cluttered at times when it had too many tasks and schedules put together. For someone like me who puts a high priority on UI, this was not very appealing. Incorporating grids/tabular format could have made it appear more organized.

Task management made super easy
With Basecamp we have been able to achieve an appointment scheduling system for the betterment our service delivery to our clients
Pros
Basecamp is a hit but not a miss. It is simplified, tailored and integrated into an organized easy to use platform. It's comprehensivity stands out for me that it has a range of functionalities that perfectly suit my task management needs. It's straightforward and unified dashboard allow me to keep track of all my clients appointments. Since it is a default communication platform in the salon we use it as a centralized place where we can share new hairstyles and brainstorm on how to achieve each one of it soo it allows for sharing of any file of any format especially pictures which is the most common in our setup. Getting every appointment on calendar helps with scheduling the appointment to make sure there are no double salon appointments on the same time or day

Basecamp Review
Using Basecamp has been a really fruitful experience. It made working on remote projects easier and more productive for us, as there were no communication problems. Basecamp provides a shared dashboard that displays all project details, including plans and progress, which further aids in keeping us all in the loop regarding the project activity.
Pros
Basecamp provides a really helpful group chat feature that lets us communicate in real time, no matter where we are in the world. This enables us to have extremely fruitful conversations, particularly while working remotely, which produces outcomes that are just as good as those obtained when working on-site. It gives us access to a shared dashboard where we can monitor the work that has already been completed, the work that is scheduled, and how our job is to be completed. It's simple and extremely safe to share files and other materials.
Cons
Nothing about Basecamp bothers me the least, primarily since everything about it has been working really well.

A no brainer
I very much enjoyed Basecamp, and their simple featureset and pricing structure is a breath of fresh air in a world of tiered pricing and convoluted workflows.
Pros
As a consultancy, Basecamp made it easy to keep all our projects in one place while only inviting clients to view their own tickets, keeping our developers sane.
Cons
Basecamps simplicity is both it's finest feature and it's only shortcoming. Some companies have more convoluted workflows that require more advanced features.

Basecamp Review
My journey with Basecamp has been a pretty solid ride. The best part is the simplicity and easy to use without making my brain hurt. It's like project management for dummies, in a good way.
Communication-wise, it's been a game-changer. Chatting in real-time, and organizing tasks – it's all smooth sailing. The notification game is on point, keeping me in the loop without driving me crazy.
Of course, there are a couple of hiccups, like slow file uploads and sluggish videos. But overall, Basecamp has been a reliable buddy in keeping my team on the same page.
Thumbs up from me!
Pros
What I love most is how easy it is to use. No tech headaches, just smooth sailing. It's like they read our minds and knew exactly what a team needs.
The chatting part is awesome. We can talk in real-time, share files without pulling our hair out, and keep everything super organized on message boards. No more lost convos or digging through emails!
And guess what? Notifications are on point. Not too much, not too little – just the right amount to keep us in the loop without feeling overwhelmed. Moreover, we can set the notifications as per our own convinience.
Thumbs up, Basecamp!
Cons
Just wanted to say, love using the platform, but gotta be real about a couple of things.
Uploading big files in the chat takes a bit too long. And watching videos on the message board is kind of slow, even with good internet.
Can we speed up file stuff and make videos play faster? That would be awesome.

Collaborating during remote work is made easy by Basecamp.
Basecamp allows us to achieve better results from our remote work by acting as a bridge for smooth communication of those in the field and those working from the office. It allows us to discuss our projects, gain visibility on their performance and track the entire projects from start to the end.
Pros
Basecamp offers a very useful group chatting function that allows us to chat in real-time irrespective of our geographical locations. This helps us to have very productive discussions especially during remote work which sees us have the same and even better results as it would be the case in on-site work. It provides us with a shared dashboard that keep us on the know about how our work is to be done, the work already done and the scheduled work. Sharing files and other documents is easy and so secure.
Cons
Basecamp has been a top-notch solution and there are nothing not to like about it.

Basecamp - Project Management Review
Easy software to use, and the whole team was trained up within the day on it. Keeps track of tasks and you can also flick between tasks easy. I would definitely recommend this to anyone working in projects or doing any form of teamwork on a task.
Pros
Ease of use to collaborate with my team on any legal case or project. You can upload documents and track progress with ease and it has kept us all organised and doesn’t take up too much time to input any data.
Cons
Reporting back is slightly trickier so we normally switch back to emails to report back or have phone calls. It’s more useful for task management.

All the foundations you need
Pros
Basecamp is the perfect solution for simplicity and efficiency. It has just what you need to manage projects, communications, and almost any collaborative work. You're not flooded with a ton of features that you'll never use.
The message board is simple, yet effective, with just enough customisability. Most importantly, it's a product built for their own use case - so Basecamp's authors are using the platform to build their entire business around it.
They have a ton of free resources, with my favourite being the Shape Up book about how Basecamp runs research & discovery on the platform.
Cons
They've improved many of the things I didn't like, so I think the only remaining issue is that you can't set tasks to recur every 8+ days. It caps out at 7. It's a niche use case, but I needed it a few times already and had to work around this.

Decent software. Could be better.
Basecamp works well and is a decent project management tool. If you have no used other project management tools than you will find it very helpful. However, if you have used software like Asana or Mondays, you quickly realize the limitations of Basecamp.
Pros
Basecamp has single page projects that are relatively simple to use. The to-do lists are easy to use as well. Basecamp can also handle large file transfers.
Cons
Basecamp isn’t the most user friendly software available. It’s quirky and somewhat difficult to figure out what to do if you aren’t familiar with the software.

Best use for Management
My Overall Experience using basecamp is good. It is my daily activity to update my basecamp tasks so that everybody in the team would know about the update on the task.
Manager would check the update and will check the basecamp and if he/she find the task is updated with all the requirement they close the task which is best satifaction moment like "this is complete to do" something like this
Pros
Simplicity to use the project. It is very easy to use and from day one you can learn how to use this.
It provided every morning notification mail on all the updates of the basecamp task.
Its due date feature help to check the date prior which we have to complete the task

Basecamp Best Team Doc Storage Program
Very positive. Super interactive with all other major data programs. Can easily link to Google Docs or any other data.
Pros
Excellent and user-friendly program for having a central location for shared document storage. Better than Google docs because it is not created within a dedicated account, so that when the person who created it leaves, access become problematic. Solved a significant access issue for our multi-disciplinary team.
