Basecamp is project management software created in 1999 by Jason Fried, Carlos Segura, and Ernest Kim. It allows project teams to collaborate by adding tasks, files, discussions, and calendar events. Each member controls the visibility of their contributions. Groups can be used to keep subteams updated. The software facilitates tracking all aspects of a project in a central online location. Basecamp pricing starts at $20 per month for 10 active projects and scales up based on the number of projects and storage space needed.

together within Basecamp. Each member has control over the visibility
and access to each post/document they publish on Basecamp.
Groups can be created to keep sub teams up to date on certain areas
of the project (i.e. developer groups or stakeholder groups).
Each development of the project can be tracked, discussed and
signed-off all within Basecamp. Project files can also be stored
and accessed.
Project schedules and timelines can be tracked on a calendar to aid
project timelines.
Basecamp facilitates all project activities to be stored, tracked,
discussed and signed-off all within one online space.
