Today the Bugzilla Project is extremely proud to announce the release of Bugzilla 5.0, the most exciting new version of Bugzilla in our history. It has been slightly over two years since we released Bugzilla 4.4 in May of 2013. This new major release comes with many new features and improvements to WebServices and performance. Bugzilla 5.0 is our best release ever, and we hope that you enjoy and appreciate the results of these last two years of hard work by our entirely-volunteer community. Please note that the release of Bugzilla 5.0 also marks End Of Life for the Bugzilla 4.0 series, meaning that there will be no further updates for the 4.0.x series, even if there are serious security issues found in that series. We recommend that all installations running the 4.0 series upgrade as soon as possible to 5.0.

Defect Tracking Systems allow individuals or groups of developers to keep track of outstanding bugs in their product effectively. Most commercial defect-tracking software vendors charge enormous licensing fees. Despite being "free", Bugzilla has many features its expensive counterparts lack. Consequently, Bugzilla has quickly become a favorite of thousands of organizations across the globe, and is widely regarded as one of the top defect-tracking systems available.
