Project management software has the capacity to help plan, organize, and manage resource tools and develop resource estimates.

Depending on the sophistication of the software, it can manage estimation and planning, scheduling, cost control and budget management, resource allocation, collaboration software, communication, decision-making, quality management and documentation or administration systems.

Today, numerous PC & browser based project management software and contract management software solutions exist, and are finding applications in almost every type of business.

A component of software configuration management, version control, also known as revision control or source control, is the management of changes to documents, computer programs, large web sites, and other collections of information.

Changes are usually identified by a number or letter code, termed the "revision number", "revision level", or simply "revision".

For example, an initial set of files is "revision 1".

When the first change is made, the resulting set is "revision 2", and so on.

Each revision is associated with a timestamp and the person making the change.

Revisions can be compared, restored, and with some types of files, merged.

Git is a version control system (VCS) for tracking changes in computer files and coordinating work on those files among multiple people.

It is primarily used for software development, but it can be used to keep track of changes in any files.

As a distributed revision control system it is aimed at speed, data integrity, and support for distributed, non-linear workflows.

A wiki is a website that provides collaborative modification of its content and structure directly from the web browser.

In a typical wiki, text is written using a simplified markup language (known as "wiki markup") and often edited with the help of a rich-text editor.

A wiki is run using wiki software, otherwise known as a wiki engine.

There are dozens of different wiki engines in use, both standalone and part of other software, such as bug tracking systems.

Some wiki engines are open source, whereas others are proprietary.

Some permit control over different functions (levels of access); for example, editing rights may permit changing, adding or removing material.

Others may permit access without enforcing access control.

Other rules may also be imposed to organize content.

A wiki engine is a type of content management system, but it differs from most other such systems, including blog software, in that the content is created without any defined owner or leader, and wikis have little implicit structure, allowing structure to emerge according to the needs of the users.

An issue tracking system (also ITS, trouble ticket system, support ticket, request management or incident ticket system) is a computer software package that manages and maintains lists of issues, as needed by an organization.

Issue tracking systems are commonly used in an organization's customer support call center to create, update, and resolve reported customer issues, or even issues reported by that organization's other employees.

A support ticket should include vital information for the account involved and the issue encountered.

An issue tracking system often also contains a knowledge base containing information on each customer, resolutions to common problems, and other such data.

An issue tracking system is similar to a "bugtracker", and often, a software company will sell both, and some bugtrackers are capable of being used as an issue tracking system, and vice versa.

Consistent use of an issue or bug tracking system is considered one of the "hallmarks of a good software team".
