Use Raygun and Lite Tracker Together for Better Project Management

LiteTracker

This guest post is from Freyja Spaven of Raygun, a crash- and error-reporting software trusted by thousands of teams worldwide that integrates quickly and easily with your Lite Tracker projects.


Raygun pulls detailed diagnostics on any errors affecting your users right down to the line of code, and automatically allocates them to a team’s story inside Tracker. Discover errors well before your users experience them, and if errors do fall through the cracks, Raygun pulls the information on the users affected so you can swiftly and professionally send a follow-up email. 

Lite Tracker and Raygun integrated a while ago, but Raygun has made some improvements since then and we are excited to share them with you.

Project management around a large website project can be complicated. However, open collaboration and communication make a big difference, especially in large teams with multiple projects running simultaneously.

The effort that usually goes into minimizing damage during deployment is usually considerable; errors made during deployments are often are only found by the end user! However, with the right tools working together, you can save time, effort, and resources.

This is why Lite Tracker and Raygun work so well together. Everything becomes twice as fast, and you’ll have your business and your client’s best interests at heart.

With Lite Tracker, team members will be able to create stories that represent bite-sized chunks of work.

To help improve your team’s workflow, you’ll be able to link error groups found inside Raygun to new or existing stories in Tracker, making your error management process a whole lot smoother.
