About Basecamp37signals
Basecamp is the only product here that mostly refuses per-seat pricing: the plans are flat monthly fees with project, storage and user ceilings attached. Free covers one project and five users; Freelancer is US$25 a month for three projects and twenty users; Studio at US$59 and Pro at US$99 raise the project and storage limits and remove the user cap; Unlimited is US$299 a month on annual billing. Trials run thirty days, and forty-five on the top plan.
