Thanks for all the great suggestions.

I've come across a couple of request-tracking tools at work that other
departments are using, so I'm gonna check out these too. They are Quality
Center by HP and Jira by Atlassian. If these fulfill our requirements we're
probably gonna go for one of them. Any comments of either of them are
welcome.
