Very responsive, easily understood, available when needed. This has made a big difference in the success of our use of Bright Idea.

The tool allow to manage complex innovation program both involving employees and external actors such as start-ups etc. It is extremely flexible and it scales with the ambition of any innovation team.

Speed of being able to spin up new sites is fantastic - if you're not looking to customise much it's quite simple to get a professional looking site up quickly.

BrightIdea is a great software for innovation and collaboration.

The customisability of the product. Some features are quite rigid and hard to customise.

Very user-friendly and graphically pleasing- good customization options. Best product and license structure for the price especially compared to Hype and Spigit.

Ease of implementation, support, single sign on (SSO) integration.

Great training sessions, flexible to our needs and great customer support. Only great things to say about this company.

Amazing API library that allows both to integrate new functionalities as well as other third party systems.

Truth be told: I do hate it's chat mechanism. All the users, the team and I just can't get it, so we communicate via email.

Bright idea is extremely intuitive and easy to setup. We use it for multiple use cases.

We were able to save tens of millions of dollars in cost avoidance due to the creative and impactful ideas that were submitted by employees all around the company.

There are too many widgets and options to configure. Lack of templates slows the configuration process down.

Easy to setup and use, ability to push innovation not only with your team, but also with external comunities.

Finally, Customer Service. The team is outstanding.

Brightideas offered an incredibly rich and robust platform that allowed our Innovation Team to create a method for our employees to share their ideas to management.

Otherwise, the Brightidea team has been able to solve any other problems that came up.

I love having the ability to categorize insights, assign them to users/companies, and attach them to features or ideas on the roadmap.

Visibility of how important our customer's feature requests are considering a number of things that are important to our company ex. vision, growth, revenue etc.

Unfortunately, there is almost no reporting available. So although I can prioritise against company objectives, it is nearly impossible to report back on how much time and resource is allocated.

A little cumbersome when searching for content. I will search for items that I know are in the board and no results come up.

It is the best system of record for PM related information and to build a process in. A great way to ensure all stakeholder feedback is captured & organized.

Productboard's UI and organizational structure makes it a bit difficult to understand who specifically gave you the feedback.

Low user rights of contributors, i.e. missing the option of having more makers.

It's been great and has been helping my company stay aligned on product priorities.

A good prioritization Product management software.

The communication of our product roadmap to different stakeholders is much easier now thanks to the customizable and stunning views.

Very easy to use and a great place to collaborate. Support many different views.

Great for productivity, clean and intuitive user interface, love that they continuously improve by requesting new feature adds from users.

The Productboard has a beautiful interface design and is very easy to use.

Also, I feel there are a couple of elements missing when looking at reporting and ongoing maintenance of tickets... but that's hard, and is probably something they're thinking about.

Great tool to centralise user feedback, great and flexible usability.

Well designed and easy to use software. It gives all of the features I need and has a depth to it that I know we will use later on.

It's an amazing tool you can use to give and share feedback. You can integrate it with many other tool like Slack to push things forward.

The customer service is fantastic. Response time has always been incredible.

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.

Its been a great experience, lots of good support and we've really been able to build a process behind using it.

Nice tool with questionable subscription policies.

The billing mechanism of individual plan is awful experience.

The ability to organize and prioritize my product roadmap and its features with a great deal of customization and granularity.

Intercom integration send us what is collected via the support. And then of course our dear CS and Sales team help us by writing notes after talking to our customers.

Very positive experience, I use it almost daily and also to weekly check the developments. Would add a progress bar or % on the tasks to better indicate the status.

Great scoring mechanisms. Integrations are getting stronger.

The integrations, especially to software development workflows, are limited (Github). It doesn't replace project planning/tracking software unfortunately.

It also has a great integration with Intercom, which allows our support team to seamlessly share product feedback in a customer interaction with our Product team to process.

Productboard is friendly and easy to use, and really helps me keep track of the feedback our teams and myself collect from the customer. Thanks to the various integration I can never miss feedbacks.

Link customer feedback to Features. Great and responsive customer support when it's needed.

Good integration with Jira. Helps a lot when discussing the plans for the nearest weeks/months with the main stakeholder.
