Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using it for the bug tracking in our project. It is used in our engineering department, for software bug report and tracking.
Engineers can report bugs and create bugs. After they fix the bugs, they can change the status of the bugs. Also you can create a list bugs that were created before.

Pros

bugzilla can track our bugs that are generated during the development.
It is easy to use and maintain.

Cons

More customizable.
Editing sometimes is hard.
Big attachments cannot be uploaded sometimes.

Likelihood to Recommend

We had a bug that a customer reported. It happens on our customer side about once every 100 times, so it is very hard to repeat issue on our side. Then we go back to check our Bugzilla, and check every change we did in the past, and it is easy for us to find the issue.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Bugzilla is being used in my department, other departments use JIRA for bug tracking. The problem we have is test management integration with our own testcase repository (previously used HP Quality center which worked well with Bugzilla, but currently using Testopia which was developed by our company engineers which does not integrate test cases with Bugs reported).

Pros

Bugzilla is easy to use and access
Bug search criteria is very efficent
Renaming and saving each bug search thread is useful
The UI of how bugs are listed, especially allowing the option to change columns, edit search is very useful

Cons

Big attachments cannot be uploaded.
When two people update the bug at same time it throws both the changes - instead if it can save one and ask the other to save again would help.
When we scroll to view the bug, it would be nice if the heading of the bug is showing/static while we scroll down to view the contents of bug comments.
Bugzilla home link needs improvement in Test Plan,test run creation - currently we can upload the test plan and link to each test run iteration - if it allows multiple selection of test runs to one test plan it helps.
Drag and drop of test cases to test run is very inconvenient as we have to manually drag each test case to test run. If multiple test cases can be checked and moved to Test run it would be helpful.

Likelihood to Recommend

Buzilla is easy to use and provides basic functionality to use as a bug tracking tool. If big size attachments are allowed it would have been great. Also with Bugzilla home->Test management area is improved by allowing multiple sections it would be awesome!
