Backlog pros and cons

  • User-friendly interface and simplicity, making it easy for teams of all sizes to use and adopt quickly with minimal training.

  • Efficient task management capabilities including assigning, tracking, and prioritizing tasks to ensure better workflow and productivity.

  • Flexible customization options such as custom fields, templates, themes, and seamless API integrations for enhanced project management.

  • Effective tools for bug tracking, issue reporting, and collaboration within teams and with clients, streamlining communication and documentation.

  • Limited advanced functionality such as the inability to set up multi-level parent-child task relationships or track time for subtasks.

  • Reports and analytics are basic, lacking extensive customization or detailed summaries compared to other tools.

"A very nice product, simple to learn and use. Some QoL improvements missing"

What do you like best about Backlog? The issues table is very concise, and displays all the information you would want in order to quickly prioritize issues. Moving issues between milestones is very nice, especially the option to bulk edit them to e.g. close them once a sprint is finished. What do you dislike about Backlog? There's a lot of page reloads, instead of just fetching and displaying data. Subtasking is messy, and not all that useful since they exist as separate issues anyway, ...

Best application to monitor items in progress

PROS: I love that it is very convenient to set-up tasks and requests and then delegate them to the proper individuals. Everybody is updated and I get email notification right away as soon as the tasks are complete CONS: I would like to see some more ways to monitor issues so that we could track things that aren't up for it yet maybe like ideas or concepts.
