I've recently begun working with a new software development firm. One of the things I would like to do is introduce a software management tool to collectively group the project development efforts within a single source.
I've traditionally used OnTime and my initial reaction was to introduce it within the new company as well. However, the pricing is a little too high for the Professional version at this point.
Can anyone offer any real alternatives which offer both Feature / Defect / Project management with easy reporting and dashboards? Basically I'm looking for an OnTime alternative which has been proven through use.
Thanks,
Brian
There are tons of options here. Trac (free), Mingle (pay), FogBugz (free to try and other select uses), Rallyet al.
It depends on which set of features you value most and how your development process works. I personally enjoy FogBugz, have used Mingle professionally, and like Trac on the hobby stuff where I've used it. I've also used TeamTrack, but I wasn't a fan. Rally is award-winning, but it was never the best fit for my thought process.
