IT Collaborate’s BugSentry issue tracking software
gives small and medium sized software firms powerful automatic error
reporting. BugSentry targets Microsoft’s .NET
platform, but also works with Visual Basic and COM applications.
BugSentry consists of three parts: A runtime library that
developers add to their applications, a web service running on IT
Collaborate’s servers, and a developer client. The
runtime library accepts submissions from the developer’s
program, encrypts them, caches them locally, and submits them to the
web service. The web service saves the encrypted message to
disk and manages user accounts. The developer client
downloads the encrypted messages, decrypts them, and stores them
locally.
