How to set the development effort of a feature
Want to uncover which features are your quick wins? Big, important features? Or the features you should definitely avoid?
All you need to do is dial in the development effort of features to plot them against the value:
Here are two ways to set the effort in Receptive:
1. Bulk editing from the Reports page:
Just go to "Reports" in the top navigation, and select "Chart" from "Report View".
Any new features needing an effort level will be populated one-by-one for you to dial in the estimated effort.
Scroll down a bit further to bulk edit the effort level of features:
Click "Back" to save the features.
2. From the individual feature request page:
Open the feature you'd like to set the effort of.
Click the "Edit" button in the top-right corner and scroll down slightly to find the "Feature Effort" slider and dial in the estimate there, making sure to click on "Save Changes" before you leave.
Creating a feature
You probably know that Receptive gives your customers a dashboard to vote & prioritize their requests. But as a team member you also have needs from your product. You can create a new feature request by clicking the "Suggest" link in the top navigation.
Add a title and a description, including your use case and why this would make your job easier:
Updating your priorities
Once you've voted/created 2+ features you can update your priorities. This way your product team will know what's most important to you and your team:
Requesting Receptive features
Have ideas for how our software could help you and your team work faster or smarter? We'd love to hear them!
Just login to your account from the Receptive.io homepage.
From the dropdown menu in the top right corner, select "Request Receptive feature":
You're now in our customer view (we call it "Meta-Receptive") and you can suggest, search, vote & prioritize features you'd like to see us build.
Tip: Remember to include your use case so our product team can understand the problem you're having when considering your feature.
