User Testimonials

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. Carol Aleman Software Engineering Manager Read full review	Stackify If I need to change a logo design on the invoice, the new logo is slightly larger or smaller so the type below the logo is in a different area than before. In this case, you would need to load the new version of the document into APM Plus and redo the mapping of the field areas to properly grab the information needed to process the document. Without doing this, the document could fail or go to the wrong archive based on the fields. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Nulab, Inc. Gantt chart Github support Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Stackify It combines code profiling with application logger. It is safe for production usage. Verified User Anonymous 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.

Support Rating	Nulab, Inc. I would give 9 but one less because of the high price. Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Stackify Submitting a ticket to Stackify Retrace support team is very easy and the response is always within a few hours. In case of some serious problems they are able to provide assistance coming directly from one of their developers what decreases significantly the amount of time needed to figure out what is causing the issue.

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. Carol Aleman Software Engineering Manager Read full review	Stackify APM Plus does a better job of archiving documents than DocSend and makes it easier to find the documents when you need them. DocSend seemed to be more of a marketing tool than a business tool. APM Plus is all business and consistently does what you need on a daily basis. We selected APM Plus because of the great support on setup and after implementation. They are always ready to help. Verified User Anonymous 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. Sanyam Jain RPA Consultant Read full review	Stackify We shorten the time we fix app issues We spend a lot less time digging through data We can be proactive and see issues as they are trending before the completely explode I have APM on all production servers so I can catch issues as they happen I no longer get 2000 email on an issue but rather one full of data Verified User Anonymous Read full review
