Prague (ots/PRNewswire) -

- Bug and Issue Tracking Receives an Innovative, Time-saving
Solution Developed by Acclaimed Productivity Experts

JetBrains(R), creators of intelligent, productivity-enhancing
development tools, today announced the release of YouTrack 1.0, the
company's brand new bug and issue tracking system. Following the
success of TeamCity continuous integration and build management
server, JetBrains continues to penetrate teamwork solutions market
with top-class offers.

Modern issue tracking tools are known to be rather
time-consuming. Dissatisfied with how much time working with them
generally takes, the company designed YouTrack - a web-based,
keyboard-centric issue tracker. JetBrains' own development teams as
well as other early adopters are now able to process bugs and
requests faster and easier than ever before.

"We at JetBrains use issue tracking tools extensively to respond
to user feedback and assure product quality. However, over the years
we found existing tools just not up to par in terms of fast bug
reporting, search and modification," said JetBrains CEO Sergey
Dmitriev. "Finally, we came up with a solution that suits our needs
perfectly, and is user-friendly to both developers and casual bug
reporters. To solve the majority of issue-handling tasks, YouTrack
provides two keyboard-driven controls - a search box and a command
window. To us as developers, that makes life a lot easier!"

YouTrack offers the following key features:

- Bug reporting with a single shortcut from anywhere within
YouTrack.
- Query-based search with auto-completion and highlighting.
- Intuitive commands to quickly execute batch operations on
selected issues.
- Natural-language-like query and command syntax.
- Extensive keyboard support for creating, editing, and
navigating between issues easily.
- AJAX-based user interface for extremely fast issue handling.
- Importing existing projects from JIRA 3.x.
- Integration with external tools, including LDAP, OpenID, and
JetBrains TeamCity.

YouTrack is the first mature product developed using JetBrains
Meta Programming System (MPS). Moreover, JetBrains has been
successfully using YouTrack with its own development projects,
resulting in significant time savings and enhanced user enthusiasm.

YouTrack 1.0 is available in two editions:

- Professional Edition: Ideal for small to medium teams;
limited to 10 projects and 20 user accounts, and doesn't support LDAP
authentication; priced at $300.
- Enterprise Edition: Everything a large team needs; full
functionality for any number of projects and users; priced at $1,200.

Both editions come with 1 year of free technical support and
upgrades.

JetBrains is running a promotion until the end of 2009: either
edition of YouTrack 1.0 sells at 50% off.
