Let's take a look at the features that give Rodeo the advantage.

Simple and intuitive interface

Tired of clunky and confusing UIs? Unlike Basecamp, Rodeo's easy-to-navigate and professional-looking interface is designed to eliminate clutter and increase team collaboration.

Robust financial management functionalities

Basecamp falls short of supporting the financial side of projects, which is something Rodeo excels at. Rodeo users can build budgets, send project estimates, and create invoices within the platform to ensure they’re properly compensated for their work.

Build a budget for your projects

Built-in time tracking

Rodeo’s native time-tracking feature helps you understand how much time your team is spending on each task. Plus, time tracked through Rodeo syncs with your project budget, allowing you to easily keep an eye on your spending.

Detailed reports on your projects

Rodeo specializes in turning your project data into detailed reports that can help you deliver projects on time and within budget. Because all of the features in Rodeo are connected, the reports feature allows you to keep track of current progress, employee productivity, and compare closed projects for better budgeting and forecasting.

Don't just take our word for it:
