You can also find quite many plug-ins and other products based on Jira or CruiseControl (on the other hand, be careful: it is a general problem of the open-source one plug-in might be very stable and well supported by the community, other may lead to a disaster). Second possible disadvantage, all the tools mentioned (Jira, SVN, CruiseControl/Maven/Hudson) are pretty stable products and widely used therefore it is rather easy to find people experienced with the tools. Although I cannot provide certain numbers you can consider a list of advantages below as return on investment of RTC. You either pay time to get experienced, configure and maintain, HW/OS/DB cost, integration with other systems in use (is it even possible?), or you pay for a service of the original inventor. On the other hand, Jira is the commercial product as well and TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) is never $0 or less.
Well, no surprise, it is IBM product, right.
#Bugzilla vs jira license#
And all of them are somehow doubtable so I would call them possible disadvantages.Īs you guess, first and foremost, RTC 1.0 has been released recently, we cannot use it free of charge anymore and the license is pretty expensive (it is actually comparable with ClearCase license). Lets start with disadvantages first it is shorter list and it is easier to get it finished early. When I saw Jazz for the first time (it was a demo recorded at EclipseCon 2007) I applauded: finally! This entry reflects my personal experience and opinion. And it is the next cool thing I should rather say: mega-cool thing. Better usability, better integration, new features and extensibility. Then we switched from Bugzilla + CVS to Jira and SVN and CruiseControl.
#Bugzilla vs jira software#
And it was pretty good (especially when I have experienced software development without any versioning repository or defect tracker). I used to use Bugzilla and CVS and Ant several years ago. Therefore I decided to write a blog entry and it will be rather open and alive so further experiences and different opinions can be incorporated.
Recently Ive been asked at Tieto to compare Rational Team Concert (RTC) versus cheap or open-source alternative - an integration of Atlassians Jira, Subversion and one of popular building applications like CruiseControl, Maven or Hudson.Īnd the interest grows on both sides: about RTC as well as the further. Im posting it here again in case others might find it helpful. Some time ago I wrote this blog and posted it on my companys internal network.
