Among the dilemmas that stand in the way of corporations taking advantage of the ever-expanding catalog of open-source offerings such as Bugzilla are the difficulty and time required to install and maintain them. All too often, open-source tools remain the domain of developers who have the extra time and skill needed to make them usable. Reluctant to take advantage of solutions that require too much of their own resources to operate, many corporations have not adopted much of the new technology that would otherwise aid in reducing costs. Sticking with a known solution often appears less daunting daunt tr.v. daunt·ed, daunt·ing, daunts To abate the courage of; discourage. See Synonyms at dismay. [Middle English daunten, from Old French danter, from Latin even though it bares with it a hefty price tag. Bugzilla Now!

"Bugzilla is very sophisticated defect tracking In engineering, defect tracking is the process of finding defects in a product, (by inspection, testing, or recording feedback from customers), and making new versions of the product that fix the defects. software, but the barrier for many potential users is that it is not easy to install or to maintain," says Bugopolis co-founder Jim Walters. "On average it might take an engineer two weeks to wrestle Bugzilla into working shape." "Our mission -- to produce affordable alternatives for companies that do not want to diminish their bottom line by investing their engineering time in maintaining systems or by paying high license fees, and who want easy, reliable, secure access to best-of-breed open-source tools -- has been well received by our customers including the U.S. Navy , NASA NASA: see National Aeronautics and Space Administration. NASA in full National Aeronautics and Space Administration Independent U.S. , small development teams, universities and large petroleum companies," noted Walters. "The enthusiastic response of the market demonstrates that companies are hungry for reliable alternatives to products that carry with them high license fees, and that they are receptive to open-source solutions. The premise on which Bugzilla Now! works is simple," explained Walters. "You just run the system from your server; there is no software to install. The Perl modules A Perl module is a discrete component of software for the Perl programming language. A module is distinguished by a unique namespace, e.g. "CGI" or "Net::FTP" or "XML::Parser" and a filename similarly named (ie. Net::FTP lives in Net/FTP.pm). and other components that are required for Bugzilla to function are already in place and there is no need for any additional engineering. You just put the CD in the server and pull up Bugzilla on your web browsers."
