WHY ZUNOY

Why Zunoy?

Start without servers or setup

A QA team signs up and starts tracking bugs without provisioning servers, installing dependencies, configuring a database, or maintaining patches.

A tester reports a broken UI through the widget or Chrome extension with a screenshot, page context, browser details, and comments attached.

A support issue comes from email, a QA bug comes from Chrome, and a developer creates one through API. Zunoy routes all reports into one structured workflow.

A bug moves from report to triage, assignment, fix, QA verification, closure, and documentation without spreadsheets or separate workflow tools.

After closure, the team records root cause, fix notes, verification details, preventive action, and lessons learned for future bugs.
