If you want a flexible project management tool that allows you to work the way you want, then Teamwork is the solution for you. Reduce the complexity of collaboration, scale high performance deliberately and do it all with the flexibility to work the way you want. Whether you prefer to structure your work with linear task lists or see it represented visually with boards, Teamwork has it all.
Basecamp is great if you need an enhanced to-do list, but it doesn’t offer the robust features and flexibility your team needs to deliver more complex projects. Teamwork is a rounded system that offers you more options to plan, structure, and manage your workload, giving your team the freedom to work their way — without limitations.
If you have a number of projects, Teamwork keeps everything organized, including recurring tasks which we use on all of our projects. It’s like a combo of Basecamp, Todoist but better than them both.

The top reasons why companies use Teamwork vs Basecamp
Everything you need to consider when comparing Teamwork and Basecamp.
Better time tracking with Teamwork
There’s no way to track time in Basecamp without relying on third-party tools. With Teamwork, your team can quickly and easily track time on tasks using the Teamwork Timer app. This helps your team to stay on schedule and deliver work on time.
More detailed workflows
There are no subtasks in Basecamp, meaning you can’t break down items into smaller, more manageable chunks of work. Teamwork allows you to organize and structure your work at all levels. You can drill down to the most detailed sub-tasks or zoom out to see the bigger picture with high-level project portfolios.
Clearer timelines with task dependency
You can’t make tasks dependent on other tasks in Basecamp. When you choose Teamwork as an alternative to Basecamp, you can add task dependencies so that once a task is completed, anyone dependent on it is immediately notified. This helps cross-functional teams to work together more efficiently.
Get more clarity with Gantt Charts
Gantt Charts are not available on Basecamp so you can’t get a visual representation of the project timeline. Teamwork's Gantt Charts gives teams a visual overview of the project schedule. This powerful tool helps you to see the bigger picture and make more informed decisions.

Overall Quality
Superb project management tool with so many interesting features
Martha Batruny, IT Manager, Perficient
I would say Teamwork is the easiest way of setting up new tasks as well as projects. It also helps me in managing my whole team and monitoring various activities. It enables the users to work happily and comfortably on different projects. Moreover, it helps us in creating schedule and set up other priorities too.
Comments (Benefits)
Overall Teamwork is entirely a very useful product which is equally helpful for both small as well as medium companies. So it is highly recommended to others.
