Hi,

I wrote a comment here about Apollo, http://www.apollohq.com
It’s project management + CRM together.
I was wondering if you saw it, and if you could approve it!

Thanks,
Merc.

Hi,

Would you guys consider Apollo as well? http://www.apollohq.com
Apollo is different to Basecamp: it does project management and CRM, and includes timers, calendars, cases&deals, and tons more — in a _fantastic_ AJAX interface that will blow your mind!

Bye,

Merc.

Thanks for the article. I like your conclusion. For the most part, the simpler the better. In regards to Rick’s comments I’m quite intrigued by Wrike.

We’ve started using youfig (www.youfig.com) recently and are pretty happy with its customization, breadth of applications and control for collaboration in our company. We also use it with external customers. Recommended.

i reccomend you to hav a look at this article at PCworld.com http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/134816/project_management_lite_basecamp_and_wrike.html
I’ve switched to Wrike after that and I’m quite happy about it.

Yep, Basecamp lacks features. I wanted to be able to print out my lists too, and I wanted to organize my emals. I looked for the right tool for a long time and look what I’ve found http://www.wrike.com/

[...] So as not to reinvent the wheel, this is by no means a review of Basecamp. It’s a useful product by a well-known company, but enough information is at your disposal (including that shiny new free account you just signed up for) to make an informed decision to integrate Basecamp (or any PM software) into your daily workflow. I’m not here to convince you to get organized. [...]

You might also want to consider projectspaces, which has a really simple and intuitive interface. It seems to focus on doing the basics very well and doesn’t try to be everything to everybody.
