FAQ
How are features prioritized?
Once a feature is opened, the Customer Success Managers will discuss the feature with the Product and Engineering team. The teams will analyze the problem you’re bringing and understand whether it should be added to the contract based on problem impact and existing backlog.
How often are new Roadmaps created?
Roadmaps are prioritized on a quarterly basis, meaning the sooner a new problem can be worked on is in the following Quarter.
What happens if a problem is added to the backlog but not added the upcoming Quarterly Roadmap?
The problem will be assessed in every Quarterly Prioritization session to understand if it can be fit in the next Roadmap, and it will be communicated to you once it is added to a Roadmap.
