FORUM POSTINGS

Tracking Bug Fixes for Customers
"When we send a bug report to our developers, they're supposed to enter status information in our case management system so we can send progress reports to our customers. Of course, most of the time they 'forget' to update the system, so everyone gets annoyed and my support team looks like we're not following up. How can we fix this problem?"
