Basecamp is an all-in-one project-management software that provides a wide toolset to help teams track and complete small and big projects within one workspace, called a Project. Each Project has six main tools: Campfire for quick chats, Message Board for asynchronous discussions, To-dos for task management, Schedule for tracking events and milestones, Automatic Check-ins for recurring questions, and Docs & Files for storing and sharing documents. The tool helps foster team connections with its chat tool Campfire and Automatic Check-ins tool, which regularly queries teammates for responses to common questions. Basecamp 3 facilitates transparency within companies by making all information accessible, while also providing a controlled way of sharing information with third parties through features like Clientside. The software is used in personal lives as well, such as organizing family stuff, and can be integrated with other tools via workflow automation tool Zapier to automate tasks and workflows. The Basecamp team uses the software to manage their own work, including producing a podcast, tracking tasks and progress, sharing progress without mental overhead, and improving product strategy. They use Basecamp 3 to maintain cross-company transparency, run their personal lives, and improve customer feedback collection.
