Basecamp is a solid project management solution for organizing both internal team projects, as well as client projects. With it, you have full administrative control over all aspects of the day to day running of the project. For example, you can choose to restrict permissions and views for project items, as well as entire projects. This allows you to share certain items with clients, whilst keeping other items private for sharing among specific teams.
Basecamp uses a simple, visual interface to help both team members and managers oversee their shared and personal projects and tasks. Basecamp's dashboard provides an overview of all the discussions, to-dos, files, text documents and events in a single glance.
The great thing about Basecamp is that it has optional permissions and views, which mean you can choose which team mates and clients to collaborate with. A useful feature is the PM tool, which can be used to send messages, host discussions, organize events and meetings, share files and emails, and assign tasks to individuals.
