BugAware 7.5

A new version of BugAware will be released shortly !

The new version offers significant performance improvements, some of which have already been deployed to our hosted version.

New Features Include:

Company Logos - upload your logo to further brand your BugAware instance

Anonymous Customer Portal - you can now optionally display your BugAware tasks on a public url with no authentication required. Non users can also create tasks via this new interface. This is a great feature for software development companies with public betas, or external clients who wish to submit issues though do not require a BugAware account.

New, Simplified and affordable licensing

We are proud to announce that BugAware pricing has been significantly reduced.

You can now purchase a 10 user hosted annual license for only $295, and a full enterprise license (unlimited users) is now only $595!

We also still offer a locally deployed option for only $795.

We have decided to remove the free 5 user account option due to these changes, however new clients can still trial BugAware for free for 30 days with no limitations.

Enterprise pricing - now available

We have recently introduced Enterprise pricing for both the hosted and locally deployed version of BugAware. The new pricing significantly reduces the price of BugAware for organizations with a large number of users. You can now purchase BugAware for your entire organization (unlimited users) for only $2,160 hosted, or $2,375 locally installed.

Remember, BugAware can be used for a wide number of implementations across your organization and is extremely effective for general team management and issue tracking as well as tracking development tasks and bugs.

BugAware Multi-Lingual



BugAware stores all phrases, headings and messages in its database which means different languages can be uploaded and displayed in the user interface. Currently BugAware supports English, Danish, French and more recently simplified Chinese.

It's also very easy to load additional languages. If you would like to translate bugaware into a language that is not currently supported, simply contact us for the language template, translate the English phrases and we'll upload the translation for you!
