Overall Satisfaction with Teamwork Projects

It is being used across the whole organization. It is addressing active communication across different working groups, allows individuals to be accountable for tasks, makes goals achievable by highlighting stepping stones and makes information easily viewable and not viewable for the appropriate personnel.

It is a platform where resources are also stored such as meeting minutes, draft projects and centralized contact details for all involved in the certain projects.

  • Task management, allowing due dates, sub tasks and categorization.
  • Storing meeting notes and editable notes that multiple people can work on together.
  • Allowing group threads to be easily stored, read and categorized.
  • The process of moving between tabs can be clunky at times.
  • Notes cannot be edited at the same time as another person causing duplicate copies.
  • The process of deleting uploaded resources can be time consuming as it needs to be done one at a time.
  • Allowing projects to be measured on a daily basis to their project, increasing productivity.
  • Like any new platform proper member training is required and this may take some time to set up.
  • Business objectives have been overall improved by using this software, allows goals to be accessible for all members to see.
  • base camp

Basecamp is more of a communication platform, although is task orientated also I find that teamwork manages task and projects a little bit better.

Basecamp and Teamwork have similar selling points however if you are going to choose between the two you would want to consider cost, UI and subscription levels. They both have slightly different entry levels and you will have to access your organizations needs before buying the software.

Well Suited

- Where projects require large scale coordination with minimal AO input.

- Where projects require information to be sensitive to certain members and not to others, allowing information to be accessed on a need to know basis.

- Where members are internationally collaborating and meeting in person or in real time is not possible.


Less Suited

- Small general teams that work together in the same office every day. They may be more suited for an in house solution.

- Where high security is a concern for information regarding project management, an in house local system may required.
