## What are feedback boards?

Feedback boards are one of the most popular ways for product managers to capture ideas at scale. If you're new to the concept, our [intro guide to feedback boards](/blog/what-feedback-boards) covers the fundamentals. They act as centralized hubs where customers, teammates, and stakeholders can submit suggestions, vote on existing requests, and follow progress over time.

## How do product managers use feedback boards?

Product managers typically use boards to:

- Identify recurring themes and high-impact requests.
- Understand customer priorities through upvotes, comments, and discussion.
- Organize incoming feedback using tags, filters, statuses, and custom fields.
- Communicate updates by marking ideas as planned, in progress, or shipped.

## What are the core benefits?

The core benefit of boards is **transparency and community engagement**. Instead of feedback disappearing into private channels, customers can see how their input shapes the roadmap. Tools like **FeatureOS** extend this even further by connecting boards directly to roadmap and changelog modules, closing the loop between customer input and product decisions. For a broader look at how these tools fit together, see our [feedback management software guide](/blog/feedback-management-software).
