Comparison of IssueTracking inMajor SCMTools

GitHub

• Create issues without assigning to amilestone

• Repository-bound issuemanagement

• Cannot set any priorities or modify states

• Shortcuts for properMarkdown commands

• Unclear support for attachments

Conclusion

GitHub's issuemanagement has similarities with

other SCM tools. Simplicity is a plus, as is the

possibility to set due dates for milestones. Lack of

prioritizingmay cause issues for project managers.

Gitlab

• Repository-bound issuemanagement

• Choose between "open" or "closed" states

• Priority set on a scale of 1-9

• Filterable bymultiple factors

• Allows bulk milestone, status or assignee edits

Conclusion

GitLab's issuemanagement has nice features,

looks good, and lets you use emojis and choose the

color for your labels. Communicating within issues

is also possible.

Bitbucket

•Not active by default

• Issues states limited to open or resolved

• Limited labelling and priority levels

• Basic filtering via advanced search

• Lacksmany basic issuemanagement features

Conclusion

BitBucket's issuemanagement lacks many basic

features youmight expect from an issue

management tool. It's possible Atlassian would

prefer users adopt JIRA instead.

• Project based issuemanagement

• Issues categorized undermilestones

• Custom priorities, states, and labels

• Filter by custom priorities, states, and labels

• Visualize issues in a task board (Kanban board)

or list view

Conclusion

Deveo's issuemanagement has a versatile feature

set for project based issuemanagement. Users can

set custom priorities and states, and view in a

board or list view. Deveo issuemanagement

doesn’t allow bulk editing or deadlines.
