Speaking of 37signals. I am looking for a good PM and CRM software. Either a piece of software that does both, or two separate that integrate nicely. Any suggestions? We are a Web company that handles projects including Web, Film, Photography and design. We might be developing one in house if we can't find one that meets our needs.

I'd like to plug DuetApp.

Have you taken a look at ActiveCollab [0]? I have a friend who's in a similar space who swears by it... looking to get my environment to move to it as well. [0] https://www.activecollab.com/

This might be exactly what I'm looking for. looks really great.

That's not funny or educational or even interesting. It looks like jealousy or unfounded hate. I can't really think of anything 37signals has done to warrant this. They make good products and treat both their employees and customers well. Am I missing something?

Really? I haven't used Basecamp in years (I work alone most of the time) but last time I did it seemed well thought out and stable.

I have read "Getting Real" and have seen a number of their articles they've posted on customer service and taking care of their employees over the years. What have your experiences been?

Very slick. I like the price as well. Unfortunately it's missing a few things that we need, such as Gantt charts, and a little better CRM features.

I'd be extremely surprised if you cannot manage to find one solution that fits your agency's needs from the plethora of SaaS products in those categories.

"Making simple software and charging heaps because we are hip and edgy..."

Every time I see things such as these I think: 20-something, doesn't understand money ($20/month seems "too much"), doesn't understand business, not much sense of humor either, mostly pissed about other being succesful...

The kind of people who write M$ with a dollar sign.
