Manage projects, coordinate teams, and master your company with Basecamp

Managing laptop upgrades

Replacing every laptop in the company is easy to plan but tricky to do without getting in people’s way. Basecamp schedules each swap and tracks every machine, so everyone gets a new laptop and loses no more than an hour.

The IT team tracks swaps, backups, setup, and donating old laptops in To-dos and follows each swap on a Card Table until the old laptop is erased. The Message Board explains how to pick a swap time, quick fixes happen in Chat, Automatic Check-ins ask about any problems with the new setup, and setup day photos live in Docs & Files.
