BugHerd
Chose BugHerd
BugHerd is more focused on web-based tools, which we needed, as opposed to app-based tools like Instabug. Jira has a much higher level of complexity and barrier to entry and didn't suit our use case.
Chose BugHerd
BugHerd simply added more value overall than Usersnap. We felt like BugHerd was the kind of solution we would have built if we set out to build a bug tracking tool for our web development process. The cost is reasonable and it adds a lot of value for the investment. We just …
Chose BugHerd
I didn't specifically choose Bugherd for this project, but when we do select a company bug tracker, this is the one I will choose. I've used Jira and Pivotal Tracker previously, both of which had a bigger learning curve than Bugherd, so it wasn't simple for our customer support …
Chose BugHerd
It's better than everything else we've found. So far if we were going to find something better for us -- we'd probably need to make it ourselves.
Gemini
Chose Gemini
It's really not fair to compare Gemini to iCloud, but of the products offered, I could not find one that was a direct comparison to Gemini. What I will say is that Gemini works well in conjunction with iCloud as, without Gemini, iCloud replication across Macs would exacerbate …
Chose Gemini
I have also used Google Adwords Editor - 4 stars and Bing Editor - 2 stars. The fact that it's so easy to edit a bid in Gemini is a big deal. And the toggle switch that changes a keyword or ad group from active to paused is extremely useful and easier to use than the drop down …
Chose Gemini
Gemini is more cost-effective than Project Server. It is easy to configure and easy to use

Bugherd is well suited to our needs because it's an intuitive tool that doesn't require a ton of training, and we are working with a development agency to improve our backend and communicate issues to developers. From what I've seen, it does require you to use Chrome, which might not be perfect for other companies but it great for us. The tool has great functionality for tracking and allows you to move bugs into stages like "doing", "done" or "backlog". The screenshot tool has been super easy to use, and when we do have a bug that requires multiple screenshots, it's easy to open up a newly submitted ticket to attach a custom screenshot. It isn't easy to track down a specific bug you've logged if there are hundreds, so be prepared to dig quite a bit if you're using it for extensive testing and find yourself trying to go back

As I described in the initial use case, Mac storage is a premium, so having a tool that helps your storage stay clean is incredibly useful. Almost always, duplicates are wasted space, so Gemini is a single purpose tool that helps you identify duplicates easily for quick clean up of your Mac's hard drive. Point of fact, it'll help clean up your cloud storage space too, if you select your cloud sync folders on your machine as well!

  • File De-Duplication - Gemini does a great job of finding files that are bit-for-bit identical to each other. Typically these are caused by user replication, and Gemini sniffs them out and displays them for easy user decisions.
  • Similar Photo identification - Got a lot of similar photos, but not the exact same one? That's ok, this is a huge source of wasted space, and Gemini can deal with these too. If you're a "spray and pray" type of photographer, Gemini will help you clean up near-duplicate photos, helping you keep only the best.
  • Fast File Triage - Once Gemini has identified all these duplicates, what do you do with them? Gemini helps you triage the list of duplicates and easily decide which copies to keep. This is handy if you want to keep all files in the X folder, but not in the Y folder.

Cons
  • The ability to add a couple more columns temporarily would be nice.

  • Sometimes when I search for an Ad Group, duplicates appear. But when I go into the Campaign and look for the Ad Group, there is only one.
  • The line in which it says which Campaign and then Ad Group you are in should be frozen so that it would easier to select the Campaign to go back & then into a different Ad Group.
  • You can't search for a keyword by its affiliate id. That is extremely frustrating. When I search for a keyword by its name, it brings up all keywords with that name, no matter what match type it has.

Support Rating
Truthfully, we have had very little need for BugHerd support, as the tool is intuitive and does not have many bugs of its own. They have a pretty solid help/FAQ section and their support people have been reasonably responsive the few times we have needed to contact customer support. We have had our issues resolved and questions answered.

I've never had any problems with the support for the Gemini application itself, but it seems every time I re-install (on a single machine), I run into a licensing issue. As a result, I need to go to the app's website and request that my activation key gets reset or resent. In either case, it's a pain, but as I have to reinstall infrequently, it's a small price to pay for an otherwise solid application.

  • BugHerd has also decreased the time that our project managers have to spend tracking bugs and reporting to the development team.

  • Updating the bids was quick and efficient.
  • Dealing with the duplicate ad groups when searching for them was frustrating and complicated.
  • It took time to go through the campaign and then search for the ad group to discover no duplicates.
  • Not being able to search by the affiliate id also meant that it took me longer to update the bids for the keywords because I had to check to see which match type it was before updating.
