Looks a bit dated, but customizable

What do you like best? The filtering on the view issues tab is great to see where a current issue or project stands. What do you dislike? The overall look of the program feels cluttered and not easily navigable. Recommendations to others considering the product: As long as you have someone knowledgeable enough to customize and maintain Mantis according to your business needs, it is great. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We used ...

Lightweight but efficient

What do you like best? MantisBT is a very good bug tracking software. We've deployed it in our own server and worked perfectly. The best thing is that it is open source, so we forked it and brought it to our needs. Very nice UI, simple and efficient. What do you dislike? If I can compare it to Jira which I also used, it doesn't provide the same support for the teams. Actually, in the latest version of Mantis that I used, there were no teams available, which is difficult for many small ...
