Ideation is the creative process of generating, developing, and curating new ideas. Better ideas lead to innovation and innovation leads to market leadership. Every organization wants better ideas, but it's tough to actually capture them in a manageable way. Aha! allows you to collect, curate, and promote ideas into features or initiatives to ensure that key feedback and requests are seamlessly integrated into your product planning and development processes.
Through our integrations with Salesforce and Zendesk, sales and support team members can search for and link to existing ideas or create new ones to help add extra value to the ideation process in Aha!
Ideas is a dedicated section in Aha! for product managers to create and manage new ideas and feature requests for consideration on the product roadmap. However, to capture any new ideas from users you will need to create a custom ideas portal.
Create a custom ideas portal
The ideas portal is configured through your account and product settings. Both are accessed by clicking your name in the top corner of Aha! and selecting Settings. This will allow you to configure a portal and add the Ideas tab at the top of the screen when you are viewing that product.
You may configure multiple ideas portals types per product, e.g.: Private portal for partners and a public portal for customers. You can also configure one portal for all of your products, e.g.: when customers use more than one product they will only need to remember one idea portal, but be able to choose between products. When you create a portal, there are three different types to chose from:
Submit only: Create a form that users can fill out to submit new ideas. You will need to share the location of the form with users and they will not be able to see other submitted ideas.
Private: Create a forum that is only available to registered users of specific, pre-defined email domains. These users can submit and view ideas submitted by other registered members of that forum.
Public: Create a forum that is visible and available to anyone who knows the link. Both public users and registered private users can submit ideas to this forum. Public users' ideas will be visible to everyone. Private users' ideas will be visible to only other registered private users.
