Likelihood to Recommend Buzilla is easy to use and provides basic functionality to use as a bug tracking tool. If big size attachments are allowed it would have been great. Also with Bugzilla home->Test management area is improved by allowing multiple sections it would be awesome!

Scenarios where it works well: 1) Retros can be very well facilitated & notes/action items can be captured against the sprint. 2) Product Owner can effectively track the story progress with all the test-cases, design etc. 3) Being good scaling support, it provides good visibility across multiple teams, programs and agile portfolios, providing a centralized environment where all our stakeholders can easily work together regardless of location. 4) It provides easy tracking all of your epics, stories, themes, defects, tasks, tests and issues 5) I like its intuitive UI as for moving stories around, burning hours. 6) It allows top leadership to visualize and report their strategic plans, giving all stakeholders the relevant data that they need to stay dedicated to the project priorities. 7) It can be easily integrated with slack so for few teams we used slack for collaboration Scenarios where it did not work well: 1) Test Management need improvement in terms of tracking tests, team had hard time tracking regression test cases. 2) Version one comes with lot of features like Rally but here we don’t get customizations which is there in Jira where from workflow to issue everything can be customized based on your team/program/portfolio requirements. 3) Lot of navigation to access basic stuff. Example I want to go to bug attachment , there are lt of clicks & navigation need to do which should be pretty straightforward I feel.

Automated saving of changes, no records can be lost because all items are saved in real-time. The watch function, optional but beneficial when managing multiple teams or projects. Read full review Cons Cloud Based. I'd like to see bugzilla be cloud based. The company I currently work with made a final decision to change db's for this specific reason. Due to the frequency of travel in this company, they need access to bugzilla from differing national / international locations. Larger File Attachments. I believe the limit of a bugzilla content upload is 4 megabytes. For many of our video'd issues, this file size is simply impractical without the additional effort exertion on video compressor applications.

Although Digital.ai Agility supports customizations, they can be somewhat cumbersome to set up and maintain The Analytics engine's user experience for digging into the data does not have the same feel as the rest of the system and, as a result, can be hard to work with Read full review Likelihood to Renew For future projects I will look at something that is hosted in the cloud that I don't have to manage. I would also like something that has a more modern feel to allow my customers to use it as well as my employees.

Usability This is a pretty straightforward system. You put in the bug details, a ticket is created, the team is notified. The user interface reflects this very simple and straightforward flow. It's certainly much easier than trying to track bugs with using Excel and email.

VersionOne provides outstanding training. They have Product Owner training that I recommend every Product Owner attend. They have scrum master training and other agile training that was well worth the money paid because it made the teams more productive. And the support for the tool is incredible. These people live and breathe Agile and are evangelists and enthusiasts.

Implementation Rating Implementation was pretty simple. Particularly because the product cannot be customized so there is not much to do apart from getting it up and running.

Alternatives Considered We migrated away from the whole suite of Rational tools because of their massive complexity around administration and inflexibility regarding workflows. In addition, the suite was insanely expensive, and users hated the usability of the tools. We evaluated, and liked
JIRA , but because the organization was looking for cost savings, we ended up going with Bugzilla and it's FOSS model so as to avoid ongoing costs.

JIRA appears to be more extensible with the ability for Scrum, Kanban, bug/incident tracking, and the ability to customize dashboards. However, VersionOne's performance over the same teams is extremely fast in comparison and therefore allows users to be more productive over the same amount of time.

Return on Investment It has made the SDLC process more efficient. Bugs were logged and tracked in emails or in Excel sheets leading to slow communication and at time version issues with multiple files. Being an online tool, Bugzilla solved those issues, improved communication, instant status updates and improved efficiency. We have used Bugzilla with a lot of federal goverment agencies (DHS, CMS, SAMHSA, CDC, HHS etc). Project Directors adn Principle Investigators were at times given access to Bugzilla which provided a snapshot of open vs closed issues. Some groups would resist using Bugzilla with the email reminders being the main reason. Turning off or reminding them of features where we can 'control' email notification helped a lot.

It has made it easier to implement Agile processes. Since our team is fairly new to Agile, this has been extremely helpful. Our organization is quickly growing, and V1 has made it easier for new hires to look at everything that our team has in the works. Read full review ScreenShots
