Key differences that matter in daily work
You build websites, not e-learning courses. Yet, zipBoard forces web developers to navigate a heavy interface built for reviewing MP4 videos and SCORM files.
Ybug is lean and built strictly for web QA. We do one thing perfectly—website bug tracking—without the clutter.
zipBoard is great at drawing a red box on a screen. But when a complex web app breaks, a red box isn't enough to fix it.
Ybug gives developers the complete technical picture. We automatically capture the environment, JavaScript console logs, and network errors so your team has the actual diagnostic data they need.
zipBoard's entry plan ($99/mo) heavily restricts you to just 20 digital assets. If you need to debug more assets, you are immediately hit with expensive add-on fees.
Ybug doesn't punish your growth. We give you unlimited digital assets and bundle your team members into one flat, affordable fee. You can take on more clients without your software bill exploding.
zipBoard acts as a massive centralized review hub, trying to be your project management tool with its own proprietary Kanban boards and task managers.
Ybug feeds the tools you already use. We offer seamless sync with Jira, ClickUp, Trello, and more. Clients report issues frictionlessly on the live site, and the data flows right to where your devs already work.

Installation is quick, the interface is clear, and the team behind the product is responsive and attentive.
Consultant et développeur web
I like the simplicity of the parametrization, yet the sophisticated functionality in the background. It is a perfect tool for implementation projects, with no time you will have a prepared solution fur bug tracking and ticket collections. Have been using this tool with e-mail + redmine integration and it was just really good. From user perspective it is absolutely simple, project is defined by the web url where they are standing at and they focus only on the problem reporting. All technicall info is sent automatically.

Ybug is intuitive and easy to use for someone who by nature is not technical. It is quite flexible - where some tools are limited to bug reporting, we use Ybug not only to report bugs, but to also solicit feedback on specific pages and products. Ybug also provides an invaluable screenshot that enables a customer to show us the exact issue. On top of this, service is excellent.
Founder & President at TrophyCentral
Easy to install process, Jira and Github integration. We found a bug with taking screenshots in an iframe, which was submitted and fixed by the really responsive team.
CTO at EscolaSoft
We use it daily to help client capture feedback and send this feedback directly to our project management tool basecamp.
CEO at Webwirkung
There are 3 main features that I like the most: 1. Unlike other feedback software that we used before, Ybug is easier to launch for each project. It typically takes 2-3 minutes to add a project to Ybug and start sending feedback. 2. It has a nice Chrome extension, which allows to capture screenshots on any website and tag to any project that we are currently working on. 3. Ybug integrates nicely with Teamwork (our PM tool), so each feedback that is submitted on the development websites - is automatically created as a task for our development team.
Project manager
One central tool to get bug reports from non tech users, with a lot of information that help the dev team to understand the problem (url, screenshot, etc)
The Chrome widget is very powerful. Internal users just have to install it, and they can immediately report bug or else.
CTO at Wobee
Get precise annotated screenshots and true developer context without paying a premium for e-learning features you don't need.
