### "One of the best bug tracking softwares out there\!" — 4.0/5

> **Prasuk** | *23 December 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There are a few things I would like to specifically point out:&#10;- Easy to Use, I had no experience of any bug tracking software before using Bugzilla and it turned out so easy and user-friendly.&#10;- Ability to filter out columns as per requirements, for example, the severity of bug, reporter, assignee etc.
> 
> **Cons**: - I felt that there should be an option to delete the comments within a period of time.&#10;- The column filtering could be made more user-friendly by adding checkboxes as in other management tools.&#10;- The attachments could be displayed in a better way (like a thumbnail).
> 
> The software is free and provides some features are not there even in the paid softwares. This could be best choice for smaller organizations.
