What you give up vs Basecamp
- Focused on file delivery, not full task or sprint management
- No native Kanban, time tracking, or roadmap features
- UI is functional but basic
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host ProjectSend on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Basecamp: flat fee that still rules out self-hosting).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (GPL-2.0).
