I'm using redmine. What I use most are the wiki, which I use to create and share documentation with customers and coworkers, the issue tracker and the repository. The forums are also useful sometimes. Furthermore it's an open source Rails application that I can read and customize easily if I have to. A couple of customers of mine use basecamp. It's easier to start with but I miss the wiki a lot and not having an integrated repository manager is an annoyance. However its ability to assign unstructured todo tasks is a nice feature. Overall I think that basecamp it's more for (light) project management and communication than for software development. Redmine is much better at that.
