the user interface and colors need to be more attractive :)

Avantages

It's nice and easy to use, a little friendlier than Github for example and seems to work reliably on the whole.

Inconvénients

its isolated, not having full program management features compared to other competitors

Avantages

I like the older versions, but cant get the newer versions to install so we are abandoning bugzilla in favor of something we can get working

Inconvénients

later verions would not install - spent quite a lot of time on that

Avantages

Has all the features for software development project. Integrated well with NetBeans IDE, so we can directly update tickets without opening BugZilla.

Inconvénients

Before JIRA, this is the first choice for software development, but the UI needs some refresh to catch up with another todays software development project.

Avantages

As an intern who was new to the technology development process in the real world, I found this tool to be intuitive.

Inconvénients

The only issues that I encounter while using this tool were due to the fact that I needed to be brought up to speed on the terminology used by the verification engineers that I worked with and not related to the tool itself.

Avantages

1.Tracking the defects are easier
2.Assigning to the developers are easier
3.Uploading files options are available
4.Routing options are available

Inconvénients

- Attachments are not shown in the threads
- Difficult to track multiple threads
- Sometimes the UI is very slow, also the UI looks dull

Avantages

Most important is pricing , the features they offer like email notification , bug status change notification , linking of multiple issues are extremely good and helpful and the price tag which they put is next to just free

Inconvénients

sometimes extremely slow and there is a lag

Avantages

it really make it easy to manage bugs of our softwares

Inconvénients

old fashion user interface is not very easy to use

Avantages

It's a great tool to track each bug how long it took me to solve it and I liked the email notifications I receive each time someone reported a bug.

Inconvénients

The problem I had was that I couldn't customize the dashboard also the interface looks so outdated.

Avantages

We used Bugzilla in several projects and found out it is best used in projects where only maintenance is needed. It has a strong focus on bug tracking and resolution.

Inconvénients

It was difficult to customize Bugzilla to use it in projects starting from scratch. We eventually moved to Jira.

Avantages

Bugzilla has all the features you need for bug tracking in software development. Ability to link issues together is a great feature. Able to create unique links to bugs for sharing.

Inconvénients

The design and user interface seems a bit dated. Integration with Github needs more functionality. More customization options.

Avantages

Great management bug tool, works so nice to report bugs, works very well with a team. Great call for beginners.

Inconvénients

Although it is a great call for beginners, it could be some difficult to check and manage the logs for them.

Avantages

This free tool is easy to use. Tracking and reporting part is also very good. It has all the features a good defect management tool should have. Inspite of having all the features, it is free.

Inconvénients

I have not faced any issues while working in this defect management tool.

Avantages

Graphical representation of bugs. Defect life cycle representation is good enough to add proper status of the bug .

Inconvénients

User Interface (UI ) is not user friendly. Unable to understand the things initially. Requirement tracking mechanism is not there.

Avantages

BugZilla one of the best free issue trackers

Inconvénients

No UI skins
today UI in new projects are more buitifull

Avantages

It can easily be customized and the states are clear. Functionality-wise, it worked well for tracking task items.

Inconvénients

The UI is a bit outdated. I definitely had a decent amount of trouble importing test cases from CSV, so the ease of use here should improve.

Avantages

I liked the simplicity of logging and tracking bugs, plus it's free to any team that wants to use it.

Inconvénients

Unfortunately, since it's open source and free it doe look a little dated compared to something like JIRA.

Avantages

Search remember feature is great, because we don't have to type every time, if the ID is already searched once to track.

Inconvénients

User Interface is complicated and sophisticated while using the tool for tracking

Avantages

Bugzilla is a popular software for managing defects. It supports standard features for a defect life cycle system. A developer can put estimates on time needed and then track the actual time. A developer may also put deadlines.

Inconvénients

Features related to Agile project management are limited. At times performance can be an issue. User interface may appear a bit outdated.

Avantages

interface can be customized according to requirement and different level of reports can be generated and templates can be saved

Inconvénients

need to go through so many tutorials to study about cuztomization

Avantages

easy to use; more options to choose - almost include everything which must be included in a bug report.

Inconvénients

UI not so attractive: too-tiny line spaces, may add more space and some bright color rather than grey.

Avantages

Below are the top 5 things that I like most about Bugzilla :
1. It is an open source widely used bug tracker
2. It is easy in usage and its user interface is understandable for people without technical knowledge
3. It easily integrates with test management instruments
4. It integrates with an e-mailing system
5. It automates documentation

Inconvénients

1. Sometimes it becomes difficult to manage logged errors
2. User interface could be improved
3. Bug numbers are unique in a particular installation

Avantages

Very cheap, perpetual license, and comes with a wide range of common features.

Inconvénients

Because raising issues is a very frequent task, I find it not very convenient, especially when I didn't find shortcut keys.

Pourquoi passer à Bugzilla

Avantages

We are using bugzilla to view the tickets created by our QA team and to check the deployment request from the developers.

Inconvénients

There are pages that are not loading and some functionalities are not working as expected. Also the application is not a user friendly application.

Avantages

Bugzilla is a great tool to keep track of your development bugs, it is easy to check them out and see if your team has already look into them.

Inconvénients

Even though it is a great tool, you can do the same work if you have a task bar in your office or if you use agile systems.

Avantages

Extremely easy user interface and feature rich product. Very easy to navigate throughout and quick response.

Inconvénients

Found it difficult to set filters. Also faced some issues with content limit. Video are typically big in size.

Avantages

Main pro would be that it's fast and free and that Mozilla uses them so it is kept up-to-date. It's simple and gets the job done.

Inconvénients

It's simple and it works but is a little bit dated now (a bit like reddit before the redesign). When you need "good" integration with newer support/ticketing systems (Zendesk, Freshdesk, etc), then look for something else.

Avantages

a crowded interface but a lot of good features that make it a must have for a lot of developers

Inconvénients

switched to more modern solutions that came out by imitating the filezilla formula but with nicer UIs

Avantages

We can log bug easily and have better functionality.
We can assign the bug to the respective person.
Developer has facility to change the resolved facility

Inconvénients

I think UI type view of reported and resolved bug should be there.
Soeasily we can get the status of projects

Avantages

1. Great UI
2. UX is improved
3. Anyone can use it with a little bit of training
4. Cost effective

Inconvénients

1. Support is not so great but still very helpful

Avantages

Main benefit of this software is its open source architecture. It carries virtually no cost and very good community support which provides guidance on virtually every aspect. Notifications are good and suits your need. Advance search options and report systems are efficient and does its job well.

Inconvénients

As its open source so customization level is not very good. Navigation to errors is tricky and complex.

Avantages

1. User friendly bug tracking tool.
2. One of the good tool to manage whole bug life cycle.
3. Simplest basic tool available in the market.

Inconvénients

1. takes more time to load
2. No features for project management.
3. Cannot delete posted comments.

Avantages

- Bugzilla is very reliable
- The tracking feature is very helpful
- It is open source
- Quick installation makes it very use to use and share with my team

Inconvénients

It is a simple and easy software. I think there is nothing wrong with it. The user interface can be worked on a little.

Avantages

it is easy in usage and its user interface is understandable for people without technical knowledge;it easily integrates with test management instruments,it automates documentation

Inconvénients

its interface is too sophisticated, complain that it is hard to manage the logged in errors and that there are many defects in code of this instrument

Avantages

This is decent, barebones bug management software. Easy to navigate and to browse, organise, and track bugs in software development.

Inconvénients

Very old-school user interface. Tricky to integrate with more modern project/task management apps, although some of them are backwards-compatible with this tool.

Avantages

Its ease to use and install
it is an open source widely used bug tracker;
it is easy in usage and its user interface is understandable for people without technical knowledge;
it easily integrates with test management instruments;
it integrates with an e-mailing system;
it automates documentation

Inconvénients

The UI is not that impressive, it should also contain manual for operation
If I have two products and I add a new bug to Product1, the bug number is 1.
If I then add a new bug to Product2, the bug number is sequential (ie. 2). In
this example there would be no bug number `2 for Product1. Ideally we would
want Product1 to have bug numbering sequentially specific to the product, so if there are 100 bugs for Product1 then the bugs are numbered from 1 to 100.

Avantages

I like how Bugzilla offers many options and fields to apply for a particular bug. I like how it provides advanced search for bugs to quickly navigate.

Inconvénients

I dislike the security model. Just recently there was a big breach in Bugzilla giving the attacker privileges to see secure bugs. Also, for a big project like Mozilla, it becomes difficult to navigate bugs easily. I also do not like the default review (Splinter) that is integrated with it. Also, it does not integrate nicely with Github.

Avantages

It is the best bug tracker available for free, the integration with email and many other tools make it helpful for the tester. The advance query searching in the tools make it easier for the user to search fo issues. The feature of report generation helps in tracking and planing.

Inconvénients

The only problem I faced was there is no support agile developments as there is no concept of sprints integrated with Bugzilla.

Avantages

Very useful software for software testers and we easily track our bugs from starting to end.

Inconvénients

There is no such things to dislike in this but only one recommendation that the bug is also track and see in their location.

Avantages

I like nice user interface, It is very intuitive software, once I started using it, I did not have to put too much thought into it. I did not have to go through the training - it was easy to navigate.

Inconvénients

I would like to see a better design, because this bug tracking system looks too plain on the front end. Some talented designers should be employed for that.

Avantages

It can be properly managed and distributed among the colleagues.

Inconvénients

We cant customize our environment for a better look. Details documentation won't be available.

Avantages

It gives you plenty of possible ways to look into CSS code of any website. It saves you sometimes hours of work. There are similar tools in most of the browsers, but Bugzilla in my opinion is the best.

Inconvénients

It's pretty difficult to start. There's no good quick start guides on the Internet, that would introduce you to work with Bugzilla.

Avantages

Really easy to log incidents and to get reports about them

Inconvénients

UI and functionality could be improved. Customization is also limited.
