Summary

Having a central defect management repository for a project carries with it many of the benefits of source code versioning. Bugzilla creates an audit Tutorial of what was worked on and when, and in which versions of the product. Bugzilla facilitates communication between developers and between developers and end users in a way not seen in other defect-tracking systems. For large distributed products, Bugzilla might be the best bug-tracking system available. What other bug-tracking software offers the community that Bugzilla can offer? With Bugzilla you gain the ability for any product user around the world to create an account without an administrator interceding and to take part in the improvement of software. The unique voting system also lends itself to project self-management, with the project team itself determining the priorities.
