Productboard alternative

You wanted the public roadmap. You were quoted for the suite.

Productboard prices by maker and rations the customer portal by plan. If the piece you actually need is a board your customers can read, vote on and follow, that is a page on your own site.

The part your customers see

In a product suite, the public roadmap is a feature you unlock

Productboard is bought for what it does inside a product team. The portal is the one piece your customers ever touch, and it is rationed by plan like everything else.

On their plan table, read 2026-09-18

  • A second public portal Business One on Free and Plus, two on Business.
  • Moderating what customers post Business Not available on Free or Plus.
  • Embedding the portal in your site Business Not available on Free or Plus.
  • Single sign-on for the portal Business Not available on Free or Plus.
  • Removing their branding from it Enterprise Not on Business either.

Seats are metered separately: $19 per maker a month on Plus, $59 with a two-maker minimum on Business, and contributors capped at 25 until Enterprise.

Here, the portal is the product

A page

A board is a shortcode you drop on a page. That is the whole deployment, and everything above comes with it.

  • Every board is a page on your domain, in your theme
  • As many boards as you have products, one shortcode each
  • Moderation is the default, not a tier
  • Nobody else’s branding to remove

And what you would be giving up

Productboard is a prioritization suite, not a voting board with extra steps. It pulls feedback in from many sources and ties it to customer segments, scores what to build against your own framework, tracks dependencies, reads product usage from Amplitude and Mixpanel, and reaches into Salesforce at the top tier. This plugin does none of that.

If the hard part of your week is deciding what to build from a thousand signals, that suite is the right purchase and this page is not for you.

If the hard part is the portal

If what you actually needed was somewhere public to post the plan, take votes and say when it shipped, you were buying a suite to get a page. This is that page, on your own domain, for a licence fee rather than a seat count.

Their BuddyPress and WordPress plugins are reliable, well-coded, and really add value to my site. What impressed me most was the support team.

What product managers ask before switching

Does this replace Productboard's insights and prioritization?
No. There is no feedback inbox, note linking, scoring or customer segmentation. You get votes, comments, a priority field and analytics of popular items.
Who can manage the roadmap?
Any WordPress user you give the roadmap editing capability. Editors can edit and delete items by default. The license counts sites, not editors.
Can customers see how an item is progressing?
Yes. Items show status, a progress bar and a target date. Voters and commenters with an account also get an email when the status changes.
Can I sync with Jira?
Not natively. Pro sends signed webhooks for status changes, votes, comments and suggestions, so you can connect your own automation.
Can I import my existing ideas?
Yes, from CSV with Pro. The columns are Title, Description, Status, Category, Priority, Target Date and Product. Votes and comments are not imported.
Can the roadmap be private or internal only?
Not today. Boards are public pages. Keep internal planning in your PM tool and share the public roadmap from WordPress.
When is Productboard the better choice?
When your team needs research synthesis, scoring and delivery sync in one place. Product Roadmap fits when the goal is a public roadmap and voting on your own site.

Share the roadmap with customers, keep the heavy PM work where it is.

One licence covers every Pro feature, every board and everyone on your team. Tiers differ by how many sites they cover, with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
