\"MantisHub<\/a><\/p>\n

MantisBT has been known for being easy to setup across a variety of platforms due to it being a PHP app that is designed to reduce installation friction. \u00a0However, often users wanted a quicker way of getting started. \u00a0They didn’t want to worry about setting up a web server, installing MantisBT, managing it, doing backups, upgrades, and being on point to answer support questions.<\/p>\n

As a first step, we offered one-click installs for MantisBT. \u00a0That helped customers to get started quicker, but they still had to worry about security patches, upgrades and support.<\/p>\n

I’ve been working on making this better for a while, and I’m now happy to announce the launch of MantisHub<\/a>. \u00a0MantisHub is for MantisBT what GitHub is for Git. \u00a0It is MantisBT as a service. \u00a0Allowing users to signup and be up and running in less then 1 minute. \u00a0They can then try MantisBT for a month and then decide whether they want to continue using it or not. \u00a0No credit card required until the end of the trial period.<\/p>\n

MantisHub also offers MantisTouch<\/a> for mobile access. \u00a0Allowing your users to get a mobile friendly interface when accessing your MantisBT instance from any modern phone. \u00a0Just visit http:\/\/yourinstance.mantishub.com\/m\/ to get the MantisTouch interface. \u00a0This is a $100 value.<\/p>\n

Going forward, MantisHub will also replace the mantisbt.org shared demo instance. \u00a0Hence, allowing each user to trial the full MantisBT experience including administrative features in a dedicated instance. \u00a0Demo instances will be available for 30 days with no credit card requirement, and users will be able to upgrade them to a paid plan at the end of the trial.<\/p>\n

Through running MantisHub service, the experience of running MantisBT at scale will provide good insights that I’m planning to translate into improvements to MantisBT core. \u00a0So go ahead, get a free trial and provide feedback!<\/p>\n

Thanks,
