Jira Product Discovery is a development collaboration space to help developers communicate new ideas and track their progress towards delivery. Users can record ideas and add data, feedback, and supporting insights, and build consensus and confidence in new product decisions, with integrated product discovery and delivery.
It was great for handing off projects to Developers and give it into their hands especially by being able to connect to Product Board. Was tricky though sometimes going back and finding things when those backlogs get really lengthy and titles start not helping as much...etc.
We use ProdPad to capture notes from our sales team within our CRM and then integrate them into our product roadmap. Our product development team utilizes the application daily to track progress, make comments and notes on new ideas, and to visualize progress.
productboard is my favorite, but that one is more Product oriented where Atlassian Jira Product Discovery seems more Dev focused so it is nice those tools compare. Azure is really nice in the UX and the way it presents the sprints and the stories in an easy manner. Atlassian Jira Product Discovery is great when creating the stories within itself and also works with productboard better than azure does currently.
We were just capturing ideas in an Excel workbook, but that forced ownership to a single user for changes and updates and there wasn't any direct integration with project backlog. We actually didn't select ProdPad, a new VP came and brought it with him because it worked so well at his last place. Everybody here jumped on board, though.
Using ProdPad has helped our Product team avoid becoming a black hole for feedback and feature requests. This tool helps us be responsive and communicative about the data flowing into the product.
