Create tasks from issues and features

When you're using multiple tools to track feedback, ideas, and roadmaps, things can get lost in the shuffle. 

Make sure product features get added to the right place with automation. These Zaps automatically add tasks to your task management tool from Productboard features or notes. That way, nothing slips through the cracks. 

Keep track of feedback

If you can gather feedback from more customers, you can build a better product. But you have to do it the right way. Collecting customer insights in a streamlined, effective way allows for quicker, better-researched features. 

Use automation to track all feedback in Productboard. That way, you can see all your customer opinions in one app—helping you decide what to focus on. Create a Zap (or Zaps) that sends feedback from your forms, team chat app, or customer communication tool to Productboard.

Automatically create new features

If your product feature ideas are scattered throughout your product team's tech stack, it can be hard to collaborate. With automation, you can instantly create new features in Productboard when you add a new issue or card in the other apps you use. Easily gather all your ideas in one centralized place, so everyone is working on the right thing. 

Send team notifications

You need to notify the right people when new notes are added to your product management tool. That way, they can take the necessary next steps.

Keep everyone informed by creating a Zap that sends a message in your team chat app with the right details from Productboard. Viola! Your team can now stay up to date on what's going on with your new product ideas with ease.
