Alternatives to Canny
Feature voting boards with roadmap and changelog
Canny ranks #5 of 8 in Product feedback boards, with an Alt Score of 81. It is proprietary, freemium from $79/mo and available on Web and Browser extension. 12 of 12 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Product managers and product teams at software companies who need to collect and act on customer feedback, along with support, sales, and success teams that field feature requests.
A shared feedback board where users submit and upvote feature requests, plus tools to tag, segment, and score requests by estimated impact or revenue. Teams get a public or private roadmap to show what's planned, in progress, and done, and a changelog to announce shipped updates. Integrations with tools like Slack, Jira, Intercom, and Salesforce pull feedback in and push status updates back out.
Users or teammates submit feedback to a board, where it gets merged with duplicates, tagged, and prioritized; product teams move accepted items onto a roadmap, and when work ships they post a changelog entry that notifies subscribers who requested it.
