Many large companies already use bug tracker software to improve their software quality. Because of costs, many small to mid-sized companies use spreadsheets and home grown solutions for their bug tracking software, which are less than optimal.
In recent years, a number of low-cost bug tracker software solutions have become available, allowing small to mid-sized companies to manage projects with the same level of quality as enjoyed by bigger companies. Below are some things to think about when choosing bug tracking software for small to mid-sized companies.
Rent vs. Own. Choose a provider that allows you to \"rent\" the software for a low monthly fee instead of purchasing the base product, which is more expensive. Some vendors allow renting software like this for as little as $30 per concurrent user per month.
Look for Concurrent User Licenses. Look for a provider that offers concurrent user licenses. This licensing scheme allows you to have any number of people use the software, it simply limits the number of people that can use it at the same time. This model also allows you to grow your licenses as your team grows.
Manage all Phases of the Software Lifecycle. When choosing a solution, look for one that is web-based and manages all phases of the software lifecycle, including customer requirements, test cases and defect, bugs and issues. Document sharing and integrated discussion forums are a plus. Some vendors that offer this: Defect Tracker Software Planner
