Basecamp is project management without all the nonsense. Rock solid and famously easy to use.

Hey there—

Tell me if this sounds about right.

Every day you’re juggling people, projects, and expectations. There are tasks to do, discussions to have, decisions to make, files to share, deadlines to hit, relationships to manage, and work to deliver.

This all has to happen somewhere. But you’ve discovered that spreading everything across different apps, browser tabs, emails, and chats doesn’t work. You need a system.

Unfortunately, most project management systems are bloated, complicated, and confusing. And software that’s hard to use doesn’t get used.

20 years ago we were in the same boat. We needed something capable, but also straightforward, easy, and reliable. Nothing fit. So we invented Basecamp, and have been improving it ever since. In software, longevity like this isn’t luck — it’s proof it works. And in 2026 we released the all-new Basecamp 5, packing decades of experience into our best version yet.

Today, Basecamp is used across every industry, and nearly a million people, teams, companies, and non-profits worldwide rely on it daily.

Thanks for checking us out. We invite you to give Basecamp a try. And ultimately, we’d be honored to have you as a customer.

Meet Eron, our Head of Technical Ops

Rather than rent cloud hosting, we own and run our hardware across multiple data centers. We specified the hardware, configured (and sometimes invented) the software, and optimized every detail for speed and reliability. We’ve maintained an industry-leading 99.99% uptime record for years.

Meet Chase, our Head of Support

At most companies, customer service is treated as an afterthought, something to outsource, a place to cut costs. At Basecamp it’s one of our best features. Our customers consistently rave about our kind, patient, and deeply knowledgeable staff. Everyone on the team can answer any question.

We’ll show you how to set up Basecamp in minutes, how to roll it out to your team, and Q&A covering anything else you’d like to ask. See all upcoming classes.
