Not saying it doesn't work, but it looks and feels very outdated.
I think Jira and Bugzilla do different things.

We've been using Monday.com for several months now and it does most of what you are looking for.
One of the first web apps I ever wrote was an internal cms/issue tracker...still in use to this day! 
The problem is that it takes time and effort to manage it and keep it up to date...it becomes a chore unto itself. Personally, I have been neck deep in one project for the last 4 months and haven't even checked the board once during that time.

I think I've heard of Monday.com, looks really good!
I'll keep that one in the back of my head for later.

I did that with my hour registration and invoicing system.
Can confirm the time and effort 
It works exactly how I want it to though

Hi All,
The project I am on at the moment to design a test rig for is awkward. People have done the Cool stuff and not not the boring engineering behind it. The issue is the product seems to work but I am not allowed to see the inner workings as 'I don't need to' despite the fact I was put in to design the test rig for production I. I started to lay one of the boards out as a question was met by a 'don't worry about that', shortly afterward the board were taken away from me and given to a new Grad in there department as he need experience laying out boards.
A couple of Prototypes were taken away for EMC testing this week, last week a big mind meld happened lots of swearing at GIT. I get the feeling all is not well, my boss has the opinion if they don't ask for help don't help them. It's all getting horribly political...

Odds are, the "grad" would like to stay in touch. Send an email with a casual "I heard ... and BTW .. and good luck!" If he wants, he'll respond and if you're still somehow attached to the project, you can direct it that way.

Offer to help, 'R&D only, Stay in Production'! I'm getting a little frustrated about this.

Talking to others today there seems to be a vendatta against R&D (I'm Production) why Oh why can't we all get along...

At one time we had "castle walls" between software engineering, hardware engineering, and quality assurance. The relationships were deliberately adversarial.
One advantage of the company going through bankruptcy and 65% attrition in the engineering workforce is that QA no longer exists and my boss is in charge of both the software and hardware development folks.
We work together to get the job done, imagine that.

First place I've ever worked where Electronics is split. Everywhere else it's Electronics, Software, Software do all the non-embedded stuff, here R&D design something Production them have to work out how to build it. It will not end well.

I'm afraid it does sound like that. Good luck.

Apologies as this might not resonate with people from certain countries e.g. Left Ponders.

Well done, didn't think it would be that quick!

I'm astonished to discover that I can actually answer this one, given my atypical interest in the area! I've nothing for Monday though and a hectic weekend (starting in a few minutes) so will leave it for someone else. NOt needed as already solved!

I hate them, but I'm being forced to use them more often, especially in the field. Sadly, I can't see that the state of the art has advanced one bit in 20 years. They all have lousy performance, and none are useable in daylight. Has anyone here found a product that actually works "out there?"

You can't do better than a really good piece of slate, a quality chisel, and a nice mahogany mallet.

Looks like a patentable idea if not already solved.

There are the Panasonic Toughbook series but...
Price is so incredibly high that, unless you need them in an area where safety of life and limb is at stake, it doesn't make much sense to use them (IMHO). Some of my customers with money to spare bought them just to discover that they become obsolete in 3 to 5 years like any other laptop and you've spent north of 5000$ for a piece of obsolete junk.

A thing I can't quite understand is the 'your no longer tied to a desk'. The stuff that's plugged into mine... It's a Lenovo it's seems Okay (USB can be a little picky...). The only real use I think is for 'Hot Desking' which if you are doing anything not based around standard office paper work doesn't work (for me at least!) & during Covid it was quick to work from home (at the start I had to remote into my desktop).

What the heck are you doing with them? 
I know very few people who don't use a laptop for work these days and no one complains about performance.
I have two friends who use a desktop for heavy AutoCAD work, but that's about it.
For gaming it's a different matter, of course.

My company issued laptop is what I use primarily for all my work including development.
They typically last for a few years and then I put in a requisition for a new one.
Our laptops are good, but not as good as I would like them to be. Definitely not as performant as my home/personal PC, but that is because my company does not want to pay the extra money for really good laptops (I get it, saving money and all).
I do prefer PC towers over laptops, but they do make excellent, powerful laptops now ($$).
