With the massive changes we’d made to the roadmap with the latest major release, we were ready to put our roadmap to the ultimate test: A full-on digital meets physical roadmapping session.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Product Roadmapping Goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our goal was two-fold:
1) To determine where we wanted to take ProdPad next<\/strong>, now that the roadmap updates were out, following a slew of user feedback and other insights. This involved taking a good, hard look at what was on the current roadmap, and really hashing out some plans and thoughts on where we want to go next.

2) Put the product roadmap building tool to the test<\/strong>, in a live meeting environment. We cracked open the projector, and got the roadmap on the wall and a stack of sticky notes in hand. With this mixture of digital and physical, the session was pretty painless and collaborative. We had everything we needed to jot down ideas on what should go where on the roadmap, and our digital roadmap tool allowing us to simply drag and drop to update in real time.

As far as roadmapping sessions go, this was a breeze!<\/em><\/strong>

Along the way, we came up with a series of new wishlist items for the product roadmap template, minor but impactful things, inspired by either our usage or our users’ feedback. That same day, we set to updating a number of things with the roadmap and the site as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
