ZenTao vs. Jira 4: Bug Tracking

Bug tracking is one of the core issues in application development. A great bug tracking tool helps development teams and QA teams record and track bugs, and gives you complete and inclusive information about a bug. When it comes to choosing a bug tracking tool, Jira powerful features and functionality make itself ubiquitous. It offers sophisticated agile project management features like Scrum and Kanban boards.

However, too many features and endless customization possibilities make Jira one of the steepest learning curves around. It is also a heavyweight, resource hungry tool. Besides, "JIRA’s popularity with the Development teams makes testers and QA teams uncomfortable. Despite the comfort or discomfort, the test teams have no choice but to use JIRA bug tracking tool in most companies."

So what options out there?

Tah-Dah. Try ZenTao !
