Basecamp Review

Reviewed on 17/02/2024

Pros

Basecamp excels in task management, permitting groups to create to-do lists, assign obligations, and set cut-off dates. The platform's undertaking tracking skills make a contribution to green venture control and collaboration

Cons

Basecamp historically did no longer have integrated time tracking functions. For teams that require specified time monitoring and reporting for billing or assignment evaluation, this absence can be a vast drawback. However, Basecamp has added a separate product called Hey for work that includes time monitoring features.
