Bug Tracking Software

At its core, OnTime is an elegant item-tracking and item-management application. In fact, it started out in 2002 as primarily a bug tracker -- with the rest of its features evolving naturally over time.

• Fast & easy-to-use!
• Hierarchically-driven and organized
• Totally configurable
• Efficient and enforceable with custom workflow automation
• Alerts and notifications keep all team members current
• SCM integration
• Attachments & image annotations
• ...much more!

Depending on your needs, you can also leverage some or all of OnTime's power features like: custom reporting, security, work logs, auditing...

Project Management

OnTime gives you the ability to instantly answer vital questions about the projects you're working on:

• Who is working on what?
• How many issues are unresolved?
• When will we be ready to ship?
• Which resources are over- or under-utilized?
• Is the Project on track to finish on time?

While most other project management apps are little more than glorified spreadsheets, OnTime provides you with the insights you need to make meaningful decisions and to ship your software projects on time.

Scrum & Agile

At Axosoft, we are deeply rooted in Agile Development and Scrum: from the head of our Software Engineering team to our QA Lead to our Head of Training - they are all Certified Scrum Masters.

We have also created the world's #1 and highly acclaimedScrum Introductory Video >>.

So when it comes to Scrum features in OnTime, we are our own biggest critics and our first test bed for new features. You'll find OnTime provides your team with everything it needs to properly track and manage a project utilizing Scrum:

• Product Backlogs
• Release & Sprint Management
• Burndown Charts
• Customizable Terminology

Help Desk Software

When you manage your customers and support incidents with OnTime, you'll enjoy:

• POP3 / IMAP email monitoring to automatically generate support tickets based on incoming emails
• Notifications based on events (like a new email or a change in workflow step)
• Alerts based on constantly monitored rules (like 'x' hours have passed without resolution)
• Support incidents can be 'copied to defect' -- allowing support staff to instantly report verified bugs
• Color-coded incident list for at-a-glance assessment

Best of all, your support team and development team can now use the same tool to look at and plan for future releases. No more data duplication.

 

Visual Studio and Eclipse Plug-Ins

How much time and momentum are your developers wasting every time they jump out of their IDEs and into a separate defect tracker or process management system?

What if feature requests, scrum workflows, and bug tracking were accessible right inside of Visual Studio or Eclipse?

With OnTime, there's no "what if."

No clumsy interface, no swapping windows, no downshifting in the middle of a coding hot streak... OnTime doesn't get in the way.

ScrumWorks – Danube

• Timesheets and time tracking

• Program Management - coordinate multiple projects
• Manage and track cross-cutting date and feature goals
• Flexibility to model “shared component” or “core systems”

---

Reporting and Analytics

Scrum is unique in its use of empirical data to forecast release dates and ScrumWorks Pro contains extensive reporting and analytics capabilities that are reality-based and Scrum-specific. The tool tracks such metrics as velocity, the rate at which the software is completed; the rate of requirements change; and the rate at which value is added to the product. This data can then be used to generate custom reports and forecasts that are always rooted in reality, not best guesses.

• Real-Time Web Reports
• Forecast Analysis
• Burndown Charts Filtered by Theme
• Burndown Trending Options
• Cross-Product Reporting
• Earned Business Value

• User Management Overview
• Product and Role Permissions
• Role Templates
• Directory Authentication Support
• Manage Logged-in Users
• Secure Socket Layers (SSL/HTTPS)

---

Integrations

Because ScrumWorks Pro, like Scrum itself, is designed to work within organizations’ existing infrastructures, the tool integrates with popular development tools rather than bundle project management, requirements, defect tracking, and testing capabilities into a single subpar, “all-in-one” solution. Currently, ScrumWorks Pro integrates with the widely used defect tracking tools Bugzilla and JIRA, with future integrations planned for best-of-breed requirements management, testing, and defect tracking systems.

• JIRA Integration
• Bugzilla Integration
• Eclipse Plug-in via Tasktop

Tracking:
Progress tracking is essential for agile development. Are we doing well? Are there problems with the implementation in the current iteration? When will the release be completed?

For example, if developers prefer the term "Defect", you can modify the "Bug" Terms setting to show the term "Defect" instead of "Bug" throughout the project. Each Process consists of Practices such as Planning, Time Tracking, Bug Tracking, etc. TargetProcess allows users to enable/disable practices on a "per project" basis.

Issues Management:
Integrated Bug Tracking makes your development life easier. You shouldn't need a separate application for bug management. TargetProcess supports full bug life-cycle management, bug planning and assignment, automatic notifications, attachments and comments, bug change history, personalized To-Do lists, complex filters, search and jump to bug by ID.
