Review: Mantis Bug Tracker (MantisBT)

Review: Mantis Bug Tracker (MantisBT)

MantisBT is a full-featured bug-tracking system that not only keeps track of bugs, but includes a user system so that multiple users can interact and multiple projects can be tracked.

If your company creates its own software, has its own Web site, or needs to keep track of software-related issues, then you need a bug tracking tool. Naturally, there are tons of such tools available. Many of these tools are either complex to use or complex to install. MantisBT, on the other hand, is both simple to use and simple to install. This open source bug tracker is written in PHP, uses MySQL, and can be installed on Linux, Windows, Mac, OS/2, and more.

Requirements

Who's it for?
