"Lightweight but efficient"
3.5/5
What do you like best about MantisBT?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MantisBT?

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 teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"good project manager, very improvable"
4/5
What do you like best about MantisBT?

It is very good for project management, for tracking and assigning tasks. It offers comprehensive statistics on many different aspects. Additionally, it is very intuitive and the interface is very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MantisBT?

the simplicity of the interface is perhaps the biggest problem, it looks like a web application from the 90s, let's say that in certain aspects it could be improved a lot. Visually a bit outdated, and in terms of functionality, at times it is a bit tedious despite being so simple and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good tool to track and resolve issues. "
4/5
What do you like best about MantisBT?

Easy to collaborate on and track issues with teammates/ other departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MantisBT?

Time-out issues cause some re-typing which can be obnoxious (it doesn't always take too long, can be by the time you're done typing up an issue). I tend to keep an email open or blank doc and copy/paste as I go so I don't have to try to remember from scratch what I had in the fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
