ProdPad was one of five tools chosen by Gartner that can “add value to R&D\u00a0activities”. The\u00a0vendors selected this year were also commended for\u00a0“facilitating the digitalization of R&D”. We’re especially\u00a0honored to have been chosen, as ProdPad co-founders Janna and Simon are themselves product managers who are committed to simplifying\u00a0the role of product managers through innovative and integrated technology.

Recognition in the Gartner report represents not only a bucketload of\u00a0hard work from\u00a0our great team but also shows just how important our customer feedback has been in helping us develop a tool\u00a0to be proud of!

So please join us in celebrating this important milestone for ProdPad by having a look at some of the report’s key findings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

ProdPad is cool because it is specifically tailored for R&D and product managers to gather and refine ideas<\/a>, then align them into product specifications, and then arrange it all on a product roadmap<\/a>, without paying for the capabilities that aren’t necessary for more agile organizations. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The software helps PMs make decisions about what to drive within R&D and what to deprioritize. The solution helps PMs gather feedback, quantify the results, and manage the product backlog. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also allows activities to be tracked, and ideas be mapped to the product roadmap. ProdPad directly integrates<\/a> with other development tools such as Jira, Pivotal Tracker, Trello, Team Foundation Server (TFS) and others, and outputs to PDF, PNG or live embeds.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

CIOs, IT leaders, R&D IT directors, product and project managers (PPM, portfolio planning) who want a more direct innovation pipeline to product managers should evaluate this platform.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Why not see for yourself just how cool ProdPad is? Sign up for a free trial<\/a> today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
