Project Management Review
Basecamp
Deep Dive Analysis
Basecamp organises projects around message boards, to-dos, schedules and chat, with a flat-fee pricing option instead of per-seat billing.
Target Audience
Small teams and agencies that want less process, not more.
The Final Verdict
"Refreshing if your team drowns in tooling. Engineering teams with dependencies will find it thin."
