- Tracking of released object files as opposed to internal builds, so developer incidents (and their linked support incidents) are automatically linked to an object file version that contains the fix
- Automatic creation of release notes
- Ability to add enhancement requests and review support incidents for software improvement purposes
- Project task entry and tracking
Support team functionality

- Automatic e-mail logging
- Easily review the entire customer history, including contact incidents (emails, telephone calls, letters) as well as support incidents and developer tasks that have been linked to the customer.
