Some say that it\u2019s difficult to find information or that there are too many updates to keep up with, but both of these can be combatted by a concentrated effort to keep the software as well-organized and as up-to-date as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basecamp 3 isn\u2019t for everyone but used correctly it can level up your project management to the point at which the added efficiency pays for the software. This is often a key argument for smaller businesses who want to use the software but who worry that they don\u2019t deal with enough projects to justify the cost of a license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Basecamp 3 pricing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Basecamp presents two subscription options, both offering a 30-day free trial, which allows for easy cancellation without requiring credit card details. Here&#8217;s a concise overview of the pricing for these plans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Basecamp: $15 per user\/mo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Basecamp Pro Unlimited: $299\/mo (billed annually) for the unlimited number of users.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large no-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/basecamp-pricing.jpg\" alt=\"effortless basecamp project management: streamline collaboration and boost productivity\" class=\"wp-image-33809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/basecamp-pricing.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/basecamp-pricing-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/basecamp-pricing-768x464.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, discounts are available if you pay yearly (you\u2019ll save 15%), and Basecamp is free for teachers and students and half the price for charities and non-profits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting Started with Basecamp 3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that it doesn\u2019t take long to get started with the latest iteration of basecamp. The software offers its own onboarding process to guide new users through the interface, and it typically takes less than half an hour to get the basics in place and to send out invites to team members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But before you invite people to join your projects, you\u2019ll want to make sure that Basecamp is already set up with all of the information that employees are likely to need. To do it properly, you\u2019ll need to take advantage of Basecamp\u2019s tiered approach:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>HQ<\/strong>: For company-wide communication<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Teams<\/strong>: For specific teams to work together<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Projects<\/strong>: Individual projects that are assigned to specific teams<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that you arrange your work to fit within this hierarchy so that your Basecamp 3 setup has a logical structure that fits within the constraints of the software. Pay particular attention to projects and make sure that you\u2019re not simply listing tasks that would work better as part of a to-do list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure how to tell whether something\u2019s a project or a task for the to-do list? Projects are usually at a larger scale and include multiple tasks, while tasks are little tweaks and fixes. \u201cRedesign the website\u201d is a project. \u201cAdd social networking links\u201d is a task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Basecamp 3: Tools for Project Management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Basecamp 3 is full to the brim of little tools and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/basecamp-integrations-for-effective-workflow-management\/\" target=\"_blank\">Basecamp integrations<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/best-basecamp-time-tracking-integrations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Basecamp time tracking integrations<\/a> that you can use to take your project management process to the next level. Many of these are unique to the software, which means you won\u2019t be able to get them from a competitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At its most basic level, Basecamp includes six core tools that can be used at all levels of the software, from HQ level right down to teams and individual projects. Here\u2019s a list of what they are and what they\u2019re good for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To-Dos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Good For: Tracking tasks and assigning priorities<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-todo-lists-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1475\" height=\"1212\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-todo-lists-2.png\" alt=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" class=\"wp-image-4532\" title=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" srcset=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-todo-lists-2.png 1475w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-todo-lists-2-300x246.png 300w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-todo-lists-2-1024x841.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1475px) 100vw, 1475px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Basecamp 3 has rethought the way that to-dos work to make them more powerful than ever. Designed to break larger projects up into smaller, bite-sized chunks, to-do lists are easy to set up and highly customizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can add details for each item using a visual text editor, and Basecamp makes it easy for you to assign them to users and to set a deadline. Users will receive automated reminders whenever they\u2019re added to a to-do list or when a deadline is due, making it an easy way to manage the day-to-day tasks that your department is working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93<strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: You can move items around (and between lists) by dragging the small icon to the left. You can also drag and drop entire lists when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Message Board<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Good For: Sharing announcements, updates, and key communication<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-message-board-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1727\" height=\"777\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-message-board-2.png\" alt=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" class=\"wp-image-4533\" title=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" srcset=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-message-board-2.png 1727w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-message-board-2-300x134.png 300w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-message-board-2-1024x460.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1727px) 100vw, 1727px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The message board in Basecamp 3 is one of two tools that are specifically designed to foster internal communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The message board is the more formal of the two, designed to pull together conversations around a single topic and to cut down on emails. No more CCing and forwarding old emails to new employees \u2013 with Basecamp 3, you can do it all within the interface. You can even import external emails and discuss them with your team before replying to the original sender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93<strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: Encourage employees to check their \u201cHey!\u201d menu every time they log into Basecamp. This menu is \u201ca single inbox for nearly every kind of Basecamp notification\u201d, and it pulls together everything from new messages to @mentions, assignments, and project progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Campfires<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Good For: Casual chat and quick discussions<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-campfire.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1884\" height=\"709\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-campfire.png\" alt=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" class=\"wp-image-4544\" title=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" srcset=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-campfire.png 1884w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-campfire-300x112.png 300w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-campfire-1024x385.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1884px) 100vw, 1884px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If the message board is the equivalent of a sit-down meeting then campfires are like gathering around the water cooler. This group chat functionality is built-in at the center of every Basecamp and is designed for quick communication without any fuss, offering a more ephemeral alternative to the more formal message boards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93<strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: Used correctly, campfires can replace existing instant-messaging tools. Alternatively, if you\u2019re already using Slack or something similar then be sure to check whether Basecamp offers integration. It supports 50+ market-leading applications and can help to centralize information in a single place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Good For: Tracking progress, deadlines, and milestones<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-schedule.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1728\" height=\"949\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-schedule.png\" alt=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" class=\"wp-image-4534\" title=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" srcset=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-schedule.png 1728w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-schedule-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/basecamp-schedule-1024x562.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1728px) 100vw, 1728px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The schedule does exactly what its name suggests. Tapping into the project and task list data that you\u2019ve added to the system, it will update itself in real-time to show you milestones, deadlines, and more so you know what you\u2019re working on and when it needs to be completed. You can discuss your schedule from within the application and export the data to your Google, iCal, or Outlook calendars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93<strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: Basecamp 3 has a nifty piece of functionality that allows you to set your working hours. That way, you won\u2019t receive emails or notifications in the evenings or at weekends.

Then it will gather the responses and forward them over in an easy-to-read report. The good thing about this tool is that it becomes exponentially more powerful as your company grows, and the smart use of automation can <a href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/save-time\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">save time<\/a> and money while improving morale across the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93<strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: Think outside the box.

Here are a few final tricks to try out once you\u2019ve got your head around the basics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take advantage of integrations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/everhour-bc3-start-stop.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"840\" src=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/everhour-bc3-start-stop.gif\" alt=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\" class=\"wp-image-4529\" title=\"basecamp 3 project management: everything you need to know\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Use Basecamp\u2019s bank of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/basecamp.com\/extras\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external external_icon\">integrations<\/a> to upgrade functionality, such as by bringing in time tracking, estimates, and reporting.&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/everhour.com\/integrations\/basecamp\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Everhour&nbsp;natively integrates into your Basecamp interface<\/strong><\/a> so your employees&#8217; workflow stays pretty much the same.

It allows you to keep discussions with your team and discussions with your client completely separate, and it\u2019ll also store all of the feedback that you receive in a single place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customize your toolbox<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Too much choice can be counterproductive, which is why Basecamp 3 makes it easy for you to turn tools on and off by team or by the project. Disable tools if you\u2019re not using them to streamline your use of the software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use bookmarks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up bookmarks for your favorite files so that you don\u2019t waste time looking for them over and over again.

They\u2019re designed to reach you where you are, so they\u2019ll try a desktop notification if you\u2019re logged in at your machine and follow it with mobile or email notifications if you\u2019re not around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Share away<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to use Clientside but you still want to share something, you can selectively share with outsiders by hitting the share button and choosing the \u2018public link\u2019 option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Over to You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you use Basecamp 3 for project management?
