Basecamp is a project management and team communication tool from 37signals. Official apps run on Mac, Windows, iOS and Android; a free plan covers one project, and paid plans use flat monthly prices rather than per-user fees.
Basecamp keeps each project in one place: to-do lists, a message board, a schedule, documents and files, and group chat. It is popular with agencies and small companies that want a calm alternative to endless email threads.
Official apps
- Mac and Windows: desktop apps that keep Basecamp in its own window with notifications.
- iPhone, iPad and Android: the Basecamp - Project Management app; the iOS version needs iOS 17.2 or later.
- Web: works in any modern browser.
- Email: you can reply to most Basecamp notification emails directly from your inbox.
37signals also offers a Basecamp CLI for managing projects, to-dos and messages from the command line. Note that the separate Basecamp 2 app is for the older version of the product.
What each project includes
- To-dos: assign tasks with due dates and see progress.
- Message Board: post announcements and discussions instead of scattering them across email.
- Schedule: shared deadlines and events.
- Docs & Files: keep documents and files with the project.
- Chat: a real-time chat room per project.
