>2.2. Why use a bug-tracking system?</H1
><P
>For many years, defect-tracking software was principally
the domain of large software development houses. Most smaller shops
simply relied on
shared lists and email to monitor the status of defects. This procedure
was error-prone and tended to cause those bugs judged least significant by
developers to be dropped or ignored.</P
><P
>Integrated
defect-tracking systems reduce downtime, increase productivity, and raise
customer satisfaction with their systems. Along with full disclosure, an
open bug-tracker allows you to keep in touch with your clients
and resellers, to communicate about problems effectively throughout the
data management chain. Many corporations have also discovered that
defect-tracking helps reduce costs by providing IT support
accountability, telephone support knowledge bases, and a common,
well-understood method for accounting for unusual system or software
issues.</P
