User Testimonials
	Backlog	Sciforma
Likelihood to Recommend	Nulab, Inc. The user interface is very good. It is more intuitive in nature. It is easy to use and robust in operation. The dashboard is designed on modernized UI and the interface is also intuitive. I can easily navigate things on my own. Incentivized Carol Aleman Software Engineering Manager Read full review	Sciforma Yes, definitely. We wanted a flexible but robust software and Sciforma seemed to be the best fit William Berger Project Manager Read full review
Pros	Nulab, Inc. Gantt chart Github support Incentivized Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Sciforma Scheduling tasks. Assigning resources and cost items. Managing a team. Incentivized Arnie Francisco System Administrator Read full review
Cons	Nulab, Inc. The biggest drawback that I want Backlog to fix as soon as possible is that is does not provide any place to explain the problem or bug virtually. There is a need for a tab or space to attach screenshot or video to easily explain the bug or problem in the project. Incentivized Carol Aleman Software Engineering Manager Read full review	Sciforma The largest con for me is the clunky UI. It's not very intuitive, and has a larger learning curve to become a proficient user. Reports are functional, but could use some improvements. It can be slow at times, and you have to wait to make sure your changes are saved before moving on. Incentivized Tony Messier Salesforce Solution Architect Read full review
Support Rating	Nulab, Inc. I would give 9 but one less because of the high price. Incentivized Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Sciforma This software allows project and portfolio managers to analyze and prioritize projects based on resource allocation and available effort. It helps you compare the sorecast effort with resource availability. You can email, call or tweet them if you have concerns. Incentivized Arnie Francisco System Administrator Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Nulab, Inc. Backlog has all of the top-notch features to increase productivity, visibility, and project tracking. Backlog is easy to use. I first just logged in to the platform and it was [ready] to go. I easily started working on it and it started giving me the bugs’ details on our project. Always available for queries. Listen to the queries very attentively and try to give a solution on the go if applicable. Otherwise, take some time and respond with the advanced workable solution in the limited time frame. Incentivized Carol Aleman Software Engineering Manager Read full review	Sciforma We were looking at vendors but they didn't meet our expectations and weren't flexible enough. William Berger Project Manager Read full review
Return on Investment	Nulab, Inc. Software interns get easily used to this tool. One who works in the SDLC gets recognized and it's easy to track rank board. Incentivized Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Sciforma Before Sciforma we were running projects out of Excel and emails. Using a cloud based application means that everyone is viewing information in real time. Our executive leadership knows that they have one place to go for a real time status on all of our strategic projects. Incentivized Tony Messier Salesforce Solution Architect Read full review
