Am I the only one who finds Pivotal Tracker's UX horrible to the point of being unusable? I worked with a team that insisted on Pivotal Tracker and aside from its crashing my Fluid SSB every half hour or so, the text areas were way to small to type in comfortably. I found myself having to write the story in a text editor then pasting it in to PT. With that columnar layout, it just seemed like everything was cramped into spaces that were just way too small. Plus it doesn't track the history of a story. If it was assigned to Joe, then Larry, then Tom, there's no history of that chain of ownership. |

I love the UI. It's got just what you need for an agile project - similar to 37signals design philosophy of less is less.
History is most definitely tracked - and is incredibly granular. Click on any story, then the View History button. Every change is recorded there.
Why fluid crashes? Well - I doubt it's Pivotal's fault as such. I've used Chrome, Firefox, Opera on it without issue. Clients use IE and apart from when they were using IE6 (support wasn't brilliant - but then again that browser is the bane of my life) they seem to get along with Pivotal just fine.
So it might possibly be just you. I definitely prefer pivotal to JIRA - but you may get better mileage?
