Backlog is a project management and version control tool tailored for development teams, making it a good fit for dev agencies. It combines task/issue tracking (with bug templates), Git hosting, wikis, and Gantt/burndown charts in one tool. This integration allows developers to manage code and project tasks in the same place, linking commits to specific issues. It supports both agile and waterfall methodologies.
Pricing is tiered with a free plan for small teams. It scores well for its specific niche: smaller development agencies or teams that want an integrated, simpler alternative to combining Jira and separate Git hosting.

Been using it for about six months with my small dev agency, and it’s pretty good for keeping track of tasks and Git repos in one place – definitely a step up from just using Trello. The wiki functionality is surprisingly handy too, but the reporting features could use some work.
