A little introduction: Over at Think Brilliant, we use a suite of web-based applications to manage our company’s communication, directly reach our clients and partners, and generally stay organized. It’s been developed by a great company based out of Chicago called 37 Signals, and for the most part we have no complaints.
But… The one feature missing from a crucial piece of the puzzle is becoming a nasty liability. One too risky for us to keep avoiding. We’ve tried to keep our mouth shut for months because we know there’s a wall around 37 Signals and they don’t like listening or taking requests for new features. But, we are long time partners who are deeply entangled with our BaseCamp centralization. By this feature being missing, we are considering doing the unthinkable, well until now… and leaving 37 signals.
37 Signals makes 4 pieces of software that can be grouped and used together, or one by one, depending on a particular person or company’s needs. The products are called Basecamp, Highrise, Backpack and Campfire. In this post, I’m talking about Campfire.
