A tool that can make web development projects run smoothly, enhance team collaboration, and improve client satisfaction, all in one go??
Sounds too good to be true right, but for many agencies, BugHerd has become an invaluable asset. In this blog post, we’ll explore the ins and outs of BugHerd, a visual feedback and bug-tracking tool designed to change the way agencies manage web projects. We’ll cover its key features, how it has benefited Sonnet, and why it might be the perfect solution for you.
Key Features
Visual Feedback for Web Projects & Designs BugHerd enables teams to mark feedback directly on a website, making it easy to track and resolve issues quickly. Whether it’s images, PDFs, or Figma designs, team members can access the project’s ‘Websites & Files’ folder to leave comments and suggestions.
Simplified Workflow With BugHerd, you can assign, track, and resolve bugs without the need for scattered emails or miscommunications. This streamlined process ensures that everyone stays on the same page, improving overall project efficiency.
Seamless Client Collaboration Clients can report issues directly in their browser, which eliminates the need for back-and-forth communication and speeds up the approval process. Browser add-ons for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari allow for direct feedback submission, further simplifying the process.
Integrations for Productivity BugHerd integrates seamlessly with productivity tools like Trello, Slack, and Jira, allowing you to manage your workflows across different platforms. This ensures that all feedback and bug reports are centralised, making it easier to track progress and complete tasks.
Automated Details Collection When logging an issue, BugHerd automatically captures details such as the operating system, browser version, screen resolution, and more. This feature saves time and ensures that all necessary information is included for the development team to address the issue efficiently.
Secure Project Board Only users with a Manager label can create, delete, and invite other team members or clients to each project board. Guests can provide feedback without needing to set up an account, but they must provide their name and email, ensuring transparency and accountability.
Updates and New Features BugHerd keeps its users informed about new updates and features, ensuring that the tool remains up-to-date and continues to meet the needs of its users.
Benefits to Agencies
Improved Efficiency By making it easy for teams to see and address bugs, BugHerd helps solve problems faster. This real-time collaboration tool minimises delays and enhances productivity.
Better Client Relationships BugHerd’s intuitive interface simplifies communication, reducing friction during the approval process. Clients can easily report issues, leading to smoother and faster project completions.
Centralised Task Management With integrations to key tools, BugHerd helps keep projects on schedule by centralising all tasks and feedback in one place. This centralisation ensures that nothing falls through the cracks and that projects are completed on time.
Reduced Miscommunication Real-time feedback eliminates delays caused by miscommunication or unclear instructions. This leads to quicker problem resolution and faster project completion, resulting in happier clients.
Our Perspective At Sonnet, BugHerd has significantly improved our QA process. The ability to capture detailed feedback directly on the website has saved countless hours and reduced the frustration associated with traditional feedback methods. Our agency partners appreciate the seamless collaboration, and our development team loves the streamlined process.
Challenges
Occasional Screenshot Issues There have been times when screenshots were missing from the feedback. However, BugHerd’s support team has been very responsive in addressing these issues, ensuring that any disruptions are minimal and quickly resolved.
Conclusion

By leveraging its visual feedback capabilities, seamless integrations, and automated details collection, agencies can enhance their project management processes and achieve better outcomes.
