Reviews of Productboard
Alternatives Considered:
Curate your user feedback and manage your backlog
Pros:
Productboard is an excellent tool to help you make sure your roadmap is driven by real user feedback and value to your customers.
Cons:
Productboard is a fairly young company and is still building out some "no brainer" features, but they also release fantastic updates often!
Alternatives Considered:
Best software for Product Managers!
Comments:
Problems business solved:
-Backlog centralization
-Prioritization decisions
-Roadmap visibility
Pros:
I receive a lot of different input across many channels. With Product Board, I can use my Chrome extension and send everything there. Once a week a specific time is designated to search across all input and find the most valuable insights. The flexibility is also a great benefit, I highly use custom tags and split different views based on our needs for prioritization decisions, market reach or competitors gap. All our product management is around this tool.
Cons:
Nothing particular, the team keeps adding great features on new releases.
The billing mechanism of individual plan is awful experience
Comments: After spending some time on working with the tool and really enjoying its quality, I was sure that I would stay with it. But experiencing tricky non-transparent billing is just cold shower making the tool same as any other, just half way through to full value.
Pros:
It is for sure well thought through tool.
Cons:
It is not mandatory or sole source ... so charging individual for adding member without any alert or notice that just selecting someone as member from drop down menu automatically apply charging to your card is really awful experience ruining any value for the product
Invaluable for those who really care about user input
Pros:
Linking user insights to feature development; Making insights available to developers, designers and others that are working on a feature; Communicating the roadmap with users; Collecting insights from portal as well as other channels in one place."
Cons:
It still lacks multi-language support (any other language than English) and the ability to directly interact with user insights.
Productboard review
Comments: We'll be using productboard for as long as our company is in business
Pros:
Ability to create a home for product feedback Ability to organise feedback against the product's hierarchy, which then completely objectifies what to build next -> productboard is the only product that can do this Creating a publicly available portal
Cons:
You can't automatically link your userbase and their orgs, meaning that you have to manually create a new organisation each time you receive feedback from a new company The roadmapping section hasn't been great (no gantt view), however, it's about to be released
