Bugzilla

Sometimes it doesn't work properly when I open it first time

Avantages

We can link so many people to an issue and any findings will be reported to all the people in the email list. The database capabilities are very optimized. I think there is no match to bugzilla when it comes to pricing, an open source alternative to our worries. We have some great login options availaible with bugzilla.

Avantages

It was the first developer helper when firefox didn't used its own.

Pourquoi passer à Bugzilla

Avantages

It tracks bugs which is the only feature I used. I used it at a startup I worked at.

Inconvénients

Comparing it to other software is like comparing DOS to Windows. It doesn't combine project management features like other programs. The search mechanism is really bad. Also, nothing can be edited which is terrible even if you have a spelling mistake. It's like watching a conversation in text-messages sometimes.

Avantages

I thing the biggest advantage of Bugzilla is how easy it is to navigate across reported issues data.
One more thing I liked is short installation and learning curve.
We were a small project of 30 people and we needed something cheap and easy to onboard for bug tracking. We never regret we went for Bugzilla.

Avantages

I find bugzilla easy to use with a good set of options which helped me to log defects and track them. This was extensively used in my previous workplace and the general consensus was positive. The bug status and resolution parameters with a set of APIs made it easy to have a wrapper around it and use it extensively in our automation. The notifications and search filters came in handy more often than I expected.

Inconvénients

The UI has not aged well and looks dated. It needs a refresh which could attract more users. This tool has potential and could be used to track other issues and stories. Could be bettered to fit the agile model.

Avantages

Bugzilla is a functional issue-tracking system and it is free. It can be adapted to different needs fairly easily.

Inconvénients

The user interface is the weakest part of this system. It is rather clumsy and confusing for the normal end user. That is unfortunate because that fact seems to dissaude those end users from reporting issues.

We have since moved on to other products.

Avantages

Search tool is amazing,
Open Source, so no licensing fees. Also, it is cloud based.
Time Tracking feature enables to estimate time for debugging.

Inconvénients

User interface can be improved. Apart from that, I don’t see any con's with this tool.

It provides all the standard features you would expect from a tracking tool, such as tracking versions, resolution progress and history, filters, basic and advanced searching, and others. Many aspects of the tool are customizable. It is easy to install and set up, even for novice users. Email notifications are very useful as well when you want to get notified of updates to certain bug tickets.

Inconvénients

Although the interface is made very simplistically, it is a bit visually unappealing to me. The GUI makes it look like software from two decades ago.

Avantages

1. Ability to create multiple projects and teams within the tool.
2. Define various roles and permissions are driven by roles.
3. Update status and assign bugs to specific users.

Inconvénients

1. The user interface can be made a little more appealing.
2. The summary interface can be enhanced by introducing a user controlled dashboard.
