New Integration: Basecamp Project Management & Team Communication Software

Whether you’re running a fledgling startup or a large-scale corporation, the one thing that can have the greatest impact on your business is your ability to stay organized and be productive. But, this is also the one thing management teams struggle with the most.

Managers create makeshift systems out of old tools and try to tailor them to the needs of their growing organizations.

They create endless streams of word documents, run repetitive meetings, send countless emails, and implement the same disorganized cloud structure as they did on their legacy platforms.

All of these systems only serve to bog down productivity and inevitably lead to frustrated team members, missed deadlines, and upset customers.

Thankfully, the team at Basecamp has designed a simple and streamlined solution to tackle all of this chaos.

Basecamp is an all-in-one organizational tool that brings together everything your company needs to be productive in one single, straightforward package.

Companies can schedule client work, manage projects, access important files and focus their communication all in an easy to use platform.

And now with Zight (formerly CloudApp), we are helping Basecamp users take their organization and communication skills to a whole new level.

Work Smarter, Communicate Better

Basecamp allows teams to work smarter while Zight (formerly CloudApp) helps teams communicate better and with more efficiency.

Users can now create engaging visuals with detailed instructions to easily exchange important information with the people who need it the most.

Basecamp has now implemented Zight (formerly CloudApp) on their own platform to better support their teams.

Using videos and instructional GIFs, Basecamp has drastically sped up their own client on-boarding process and helped to simplify their project workflows.

Two great platforms coming together to make work, a lot less like work.
