"Simple, no-nonsense, gets the job done"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MantisBT?

I set MantisBT up and configured it for my team in about an hour and a half. What I like the best is how the program is so straightforward to use, from start to finish. Anyone can jump in, get the information they need, and then get on with their day. There's no slick UI to deal with, it's all simple text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MantisBT?

The only thing I'm really not a fan of is how attachments are treated in the tickets. In some other bug trackers I've used, it's possible to slot images in-line with text information. With MantisBT, you have to attach images and there's no way to reference them except for their file name. We type a lot of "see Figure 001" in our tickets, and that seems a little silly.

"Helps communication with tech team"
3.5/5
What do you like best about MantisBT?

We use MantisBT as a way for the tech team to catalog issues they are working on and it is helpful to refer to so that we are not reporting duplicate issues and check the status of issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MantisBT?

I wish the status updates were added chronologically from most recent so you didn't have to scroll down to get to the current information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
