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.

Backlog has awesome functions such as Project Management that tracks the progress of any project.

PROS: I like that it has great features such as Task Management, File and Knowledge Sharing, and Role-Based Access. I also like its accessibility, the security and that it has quick and organized issue-reporting. More importantly, it is cost-effective. Several of our projects are handled with Backlog. We are now more productive and can concentrate more on the progress of the work with it. CONS: What I just don't like about it is that the task tab remains open even after all subtasks were ...
