Frequently Asked Questions
A product roadmap is an actionable plan of how a product, or a SaaS solution will evolve over time. It maps out the vision and direction of new feature functionalities and when they will be released.
An agile product roadmap is built to reflect the product strategy and to also respond to changes when needed. The agile roadmaps are characterized by short time frames and frequent adjustments to allow continuous software testing. When used in agile development, a product roadmap provides context for the teams’ everyday work – multiple teams may share the same product roadmap.
Building an agile product roadmap starts with a strategy. No tool will be of help if you don’t know where to start and what you want to achieve. Then, you need to define your audience, and establish the product goals and initiatives that your efforts will support during the process. Once those are defined, the next step will be to decide which releases and features are best aligned with your strategy and then visualize it all on a timeline. And this is where roadmap visualization tools can help.
A product roadmap should include a product vision, strategy, product plan, requirements (features requests, what customers are looking/asking for), milestones, deliverables, time frames (dates or time periods for a certain goal or feature to be finished), status markers to track the progress, and metrics to assist the measurement of data-driven goals.
A good agile product roadmap tool should enable teams to track milestones, features, and product strategy in order to make more informed, and most importantly data-driven decisions to prioritize their tasks. Other key features that you should be looking for include but are not limited to file attachments, chat and discussion, reporting, dashboard creation, and resource allocation.
