16bugs: new version launch

I’m very proud to announce yesterday we released the all new version of 16bugs.

16bugs was introduced almost two years ago and we felt the need to rewrite it from scratch to include all the valuable feedback you have been sending our way.

We released the first part of the upgrade, with a few more features coming in the next weeks.

This upgrade includes:

  • Custom member groups inside each company (no more Project Manager, Developer and Beta Testers)
  • Per-project permissions for each single member of the company
  • Project activity to always be on top of what’s happening
  • Improved syndication feeds and email notifications
  • Watch single projects/bugs via email
  • Ability to pay in advance for more than one month
  • Bug IDs limited to company
  • Increased upload size (because 1MB wasn’t enough) and no more limits on which files you can upload
  • Refined UI and lots of small tweaks

This new version shouldn’t break anything — knocking on wood — except for one small thing: we greatly improved feeds for companies and single projects and we had to break compatibility with the old feeds. Refresh your feeds and you should find instructions on how to subscribe to the new feeds. We’re very sorry for this inconvenience, but we’re sure it will benefit everyone.

To celebrate this release with you, use coupon code newbugs to get 50% off when upgrading or extending your subscription for up to 1 year.

Please, let us know if you notice anything strange by sending an email or submitting a bug.

You mentioned earlier that you were considering releasing an API. Did that happen?

The API is fully working and we should start a private beta before the end of the year.
