Der wahre Unterschied
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Basecamp stands out with Message boards and To-do lists. Smartsheet counters with Spreadsheet-style project management and Gantt, card, and calendar views.
Basecamp's Achilles heel: no gantt charts, no time tracking, no custom fields — intentionally opinionated but limiting for complex work. Smartsheet's: it’s a spreadsheet pretending to be a pm tool — power users love it, everyone else gets confused. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Fazit
If you value message boards and remote-teams, die einfachheit und, go with Basecamp. If teams, die in spreadsheets matters more, Smartsheet is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
