About the Company:
37signals was founded as a Web design firm by Jason Fried, Carlos Segura, and Ernest Kim in Chicago.
Basecamp, a new kind of project management tool, is released in 2004. 37signals abandons Web design in favor of software development.
Campfire, web-based collaborative group chat, launched in 2006.
Highrise, a better way to keep track of contacts and leads, released in 2007.
The 37signals Suite was introduced in 2011 — allowing customers to use Basecamp, Highrise, Backpack, and Campfire all for one low price.
Meet the leadership team.
Jason Fried
Jason Fried is the co-founder and President of 37signals. Jason believes there’s real value and beauty in the basics. Jason co-wrote all of 37signals books, and is invited to speak around the world on entrepreneurship, design, management, and software.
David Heinemeier Hansson
David Heinemeier Hansson is a partner in 37signals. He has been working with the Net with varying levels of success since 1996 — in the fields of game journalism, marketing, project management, design, and development. In July 2004, he released the framework Rails (also known as Ruby on Rails). It’s the infrastructure software that is used to build all the applications at 37signals and thousands of other popular sites.
About the Product:
The answer to the avalanche
So many people. So many phone calls, emails, notes, follow-ups, and tasks. Who is this person again? When did we last speak? What did we talk about? Has anyone else in my company talked to this person? What’s supposed to happen next? Highrise is here to keep track of it all.
Everyone’s personal assistant
When you use Highrise, contacts and communication history can be shared across your entire company. No more “Jim has the client’s number and he’s out of the office today.” No more “I don’t know what Jane told the printer last week.” No more “Oops, I didn’t know you already called her back—I just did too.” With Highrise, everyone’s always on the same page.
One history, many interactions
Highrise is your homebase for everyone that’s important to your business. It puts together all those little points of contact so you can see the bigger picture. It makes one history out of many interactions. Highrise helps you make sense of it all.
Not too little, not too much
Your address book doesn’t do enough. CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software tries to do too much. That’s why we built Highrise. It’s the just-right, more thoughtful way to keep track of the people, conversations, and tasks that are the lifelines of your business.
