Subject: Which Engineering Bug/Issue/Problem Tracking Software Do You Use?

You could probably use MS Access for this. It's part of the Professional
version of MS Office. I've used it for tracking design requirements.

Or if your using Unix/Linux you can also use GNATS, the GNU Bug Tracking
Software. http://www.gnu.org/software/gnats/

Hi, you may want to try IPlan from:

I had attended a demo from them in my previous company. It was very
impressive; looked similar to MS Excel, etc. I think it does much more than
just Bug Tracking, so perhaps might also cost much more. :-) Perhaps you
can ask them for just Bug Tracking capabilities.

I just recently used bugzilla which is a free public domain package written
in Perl. It is slanted toward tracking SW projects but can used for ASIC
design and firmware projects. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bugzilla
