Plain and uncluttered. That is genuinely the first thing I noticed when I opened Basecamp two years ago, and it is still the thing I appreciate most every single morning. No buried menus, no settings panel that requires a map, no dashboard begging for your attention with colour-coded widgets. Everything I need sits right where I left it. For a solo operator juggling four or five client projects at once, that kind of calm interface is worth real money. The to-dos, the message board, the Docs and Files section. All of it behaves the way you expect it to on the first try.
The one honest friction point is that power users chasing Gantt charts or detailed time-tracking will hit a wall fairly quickly. Basecamp never pretends to be that tool, and I respect the honesty, but it is worth knowing before you buy. For my day-to-day workflow though, the UI genuinely gets out of my way and lets me focus on the actual work. Two years in and I have not once opened a help article just to find a basic feature.
