What is BasicOps?
BasicOps is an all-in-one team collaboration and project management platform that combines messaging, task management, file collaboration, notes, and video calls in a single workspace.
It is designed for teams that want to consolidate the tools they use to communicate and manage projects, replacing the need for separate applications while working with internal and external users and teams.
BasicOps is a cloud-based SaaS application available on web, desktop, and mobile (iOS and Android). It is developed and operated by BasicOps, Inc.
Who is BasicOps for?
BasicOps is used by individuals and teams across a range of industries and team sizes. The platform is designed for organizations that manage collaborative projects involving multiple stakeholders, including internal teams and external clients or vendors.
Common use cases include event production teams, IT departments, marketing agencies, NetSuite and ERP implementation firms, design teams (DesignOps), property management firms, and small-to-midsize businesses managing cross-functional projects.
BasicOps supports both in-house teams and distributed or remote teams.
What does BasicOps do?
BasicOps consolidates several categories of work tools into a single platform.
Its core capabilities include:
Project and task management. Teams can create projects, organize tasks with subtasks and dependencies, set due dates, assign owners, and track progress. Tasks support discussions, file attachments, followers, and custom fields. Project templates allow teams to standardize repeatable workflows.
Messaging and channels. BasicOps includes built-in chat with direct messages, group chats, and channels (similar to Slack or Microsoft Teams). All conversations can be linked to specific projects or tasks, keeping communication in context.
File collaboration. Files can be uploaded, shared, and discussed within the context of a project or task. BasicOps integrates with Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive for cloud file storage.
Integrated video calls. The platform includes built-in video calling, eliminating the need for a separate video conferencing tool for team meetings.
Review and approval workflows. Tasks can include review and approval steps, allowing teams to manage sign-off processes within the project workflow.
AI-powered project generation. BasicOps includes an AI feature that can generate a structured project plan with phases, tasks, and dependencies from a text description of the project scope.
Email integration. Emails from outside BasicOps can be forwarded into the relevant task. BasicOps also offers a Gmail Add-On and an Outlook Add-In for direct integration with email workflows.
Mobile app. A native mobile application provides on-the-go access to projects, tasks, chat, and notifications.
Workflow Automation
Robust Developer API
How is BasicOps different from other project management tools?
BasicOps differentiates itself by combining capabilities that typically require multiple separate SAAS subscriptions. Most project management platforms (such as Asana, Trello, monday.com, or ClickUp) focus on task and project tracking but rely on external tools for messaging, video calls, and file collaboration.
Conversely, communication tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams handle messaging well but lack robust AI-native project management features.
BasicOps aims to replace this combination of tools with a single platform that includes project management, messaging, video calls, file sharing, and approval workflows together.
The platform emphasizes ease of use and ease of onboarding, particularly for teams that include external stakeholders such as clients or vendors.
BasicOps also supports task negotiation, where assignees can acknowledge or accept tasks and due dates — or flag conflicts and renegotiate them before they become issues.
This is a feature designed for teams managing client-facing projects where workload and deadlines are subject to change.
