The idea behind every agile team is to set up their work flow to suit their needs. That usually means a customized workflow. I help teams with Agile transformations. Most teams are transitioning from some sort of waterfall process. So there is usually more granularity with those workflows. I can also see where the next-gen simplified model could be useful. But I don't know of 1 Scrum Master that would approve of "No Product Roadmap" and limited reports - only 2 in the next-gen Model. We need the Product Roadmap Back in the Classic Version! Does someone at Atlassian hate PMs and Scrum Masters? And since the word "Enable" is in the description, it looks like all that has to happen is making visible a few lines of code or a config on/off set to on.

Please "Enable this feature"!

Sorry to bother you but I would like to know the release date as I dont have access to the Calendly app.

Thanks

This is EXCELLENT news Erika. Thanks for providing us with an update on this. It would be a really valuable feature in classic and I look forward to hearing more about your plans for it soon.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for sharing your feedback and communicating just how important it is to connect what you're working on in Jira Software with your roadmap. We're also really happy to hear that the next-gen roadmap has resonated so strongly that people would like to see it in classic projects.

Given your input, we’re currently exploring options for creating a roadmap feature that is compatible with classic projects. We can’t comment on timelines or details of the feature at this stage, but promise to communicate more as soon as we're able.

Your feedback guides everything we do here at Atlassian so we'd love to hear your thoughts about what you'd like to see in the roadmap. If you have time, I'm setting up 1 hour calls [here|https://calendly.com/esa-3/jira-roadmap :  to inform our future roadmap.

Thanks again for your passion and engagement and I look forward to connecting with you!

Cheers,

Erika

Atlassian Product manager

Jennifer McVicker, same here.  We tried NG specifically for the Roadmap, but in the end had to move back to classic.  NG lacks all the other reports that we need.

I've just mailed the CEO's. Hopefully this will get a response!

Its very odd that this feature is released before basic Epic management in NextGen projects!!

Why why why doesn't EpicLink work in NextGen. Its been requested as a basic capability for many months now. And no sign of progress.

Ditto. This would be EXTREMELY useful for Classic projects. I tried to make the NG projects work for my team, but no. They're just awful.

+1 for Classic. This looks great, but NG aren't usable at this time.

Waiting for that for a long time 🙏

+1 Really waiting for it!

Ben Jackson (Atlassian Product Manager) posted a comment on this article yesterday: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-articles/Introducing-the-Jira-Roadmap-Macro-for-Confluence/ba-p/1123288/page/3?utm_campaign=immediate_general_comment&utm_content=topic&utm_medium=email&utm_source=atlcomm

"For those keen to see roadmapping in Classic I can only say for the moment stay tuned"

So I suppose this means they are considering it.

+1 for Classic. This looks great, but NG aren't usable at this time.

+1 Fully agree this feature is a huge help in keeping an overview.

Perhaps it could be implemented as simply as visualizing the "start date" and "end date" for the (selected) epics in the same timeline?

+1 We also would like this feature. All our projects are in Classic and, as it stands, NG is not an option.

I agree with @John Tolle word for word. 

+1 for classic projects.  We loved the look of NG projects, but they quickly fell flat because we needed so many features that only exist in the classic projects.

+1 for classic projects. we only use those and would love to be able to use this. 

We have encountered blocking issues when classic and next-gen co-exist when we tried creating a next-gen so we will only using classic projects. It's too much effort to migrate everything from classic to next-gen at this time. 

+1 - We would like this feature as well

We have everything configure in the classic project. Being able to leverage the new features in the classic project is more ideal then creating a brand new project, migrating everything over ans basically starting from scratch

We would like this as well since we do not use next-gen projects (we want to standardise our way of working) - and would like to share these roadmaps with our customers

+1 We use only classic projects.

+1 We would like this feature for Classic Projects too.

I would really like to see this for classic projects too

+1 definitely!

When can we enjoy the Roadmap for the Classic one?!

+1.   Solidly behind a roadmap feature based on themes and epics for Jira Cloud users with classic projects (which have significantly more capabilities).

Adding another voice and vote. Please add this for Classic Projects - Next Gen Projects lack the features and customization that the majority of your customer base requires. 

Give us the epic roadmap! It is insane that it is not available in the classic version of Jira.

+1 for this.

Why not enable it in Classic Projects?

The next gen project are so limited.

+ 1 ,

It seems like to trying an additional financial burn to the cloud user.

For only to sell more their add-ons.

it's sometimes very disgusting. 

Hi @Alvaro Munoz,
Sorry. I haven’t seen your submission. Do you mind submitting again? https://classyroadmap.com/sign-up-for-beta

We’re still deciding the pricing, but it will be very affordable around $5-$10 per user per month.

Hi @Chuck Foster, I signed up for Beta but didn't receive any e-mail or so. How can I start using it ?  Also, what will be the price? I cannot find it in the web. Thanks. 

Sorry all, I thought I was commenting directly to certain users first.  You are all welcome to sign up for the beta of Classy Roadmap at http://classyroadmap.com.

It's very simple to use....

1) Create filters in Jira Cloud for your epics that represent your roadmap projects.

2) Select your Jira "roadmap filter" in Classy Roadmap

3) View, present, share your roadmap in real-time from Classy Roadmap.  Updates in Jira can be viewed in Classy Roadmaps in real-time.

Hi Adam,
I noticed you were interested in the request for the Roadmap feature on Jira's Classic Projects. I am tired of waiting on Jira to add the roadmap to classic projects, so I've started working on a small project that works similar to the Roadmap on Next-Gen projects by labeling and filtering epics. As opposed to other similar 3rd party tools, we are planning on pricing our tool by user of our tool, not by active Jira users. If you're interested, you can sign up for the beta at http://classyroadmap.com.

+1 don't think I can add anything more than is already said. This is needed.

+1 We are having to have a roadmap that's completely disconnected from our projects. Would be great if we could tie them together.

I'm conscious there have been a lot of comments and votes for this feature. Atlassian responded very early on in the conversation but we've not heard anything else since. It would be good to have further dialogue with Atlassian around this particular suggestion given the interest in it. Are there any moderators keeping an eye on this who can give someone from the company a nudge? Otherwise, this is going to have been open for a year come October with no further direction on whether this can or can't be achieved. In some respects, I'd rather this be closed down rather than spending an eternity receiving emails with +1 in them for no real action or response from Atlassian.

+1 Would be great to have the roadmap on classic projects. There are 3rd party alternatives, but it's so much better to have all the tools in one box! Next-gen is nice and easy, very lightweight and flexible. But some powerful features of classic projects are missing, so it feels quite limiting, especially search & filtering options, reports.

+1
Just started looking into next-gen but seems very limited still

Please add this ASAP! Or at the very least, provide a template on confluence!

Agree with all previous comments, please add Roadmap to classic projects.

Both next gen and the classic fall short in major ways over the simplest features. One won't let you see the roadmap, the other won't let you filter properly. Please consider adding the roadmap feature to classic or open up the filtering capabilities in next-gen.

This feature would be extremely useful to have on existing projects

Christian, I can't speak for everyone but I'm certainly aware of Portfolio. However, for us it's a bit of a sledgehammer of a solution to crack a walnut of a problem that the next-gen roadmap would be perfect for in classic projects.

Atlassian - you are ruining your product.  Please implement the roadmaps for your classic product.

Roadmap is extremely important in any project. It articulates the direction of a project. 

In my view, Customisable Roadmap feature integration to Class Projects should be consider high priority in Jira. This will improve customer experience and increase efficiency in using Jira.

Need this in my classic projects.  Happy to be part of early access for Jira cloud premium, but in the meantime this feature would help alot.

I 💖Roadmap so much! Just started a new team and would love to add it to their existing project.

+1 - how many plus one does it take Atlassian?

+1

This should be added immediately

Roadmaps for classic epics seems like a no brainier. Dumbing down a product so many have grown to use and rely on, seems like a slap in the face to the customer. It's like having to learn a new platform and wastes customer time and efficiency.

This seems like a no brainer to me.  Are they are concerned with impacting their app marketplace / partners?  Please make this a global feature so I can stop searching for a roadmapping tool integration.  If you don't want to make it available in classic, at least make the roadmap feature in Confluence as good or better than it is in the next-gen projects.

+1 

Probably the best feature Atlassian has released on the UX side. Feature gap is currently way to big between classic and next-gen to convert to next-gen with an established project.

Would be thrilled to see roadmap UX integrated with classic epic structure.

+1

@Will, Same experience.

Atlassian, can you please provide some feedback / status update on this issue?

Is there anyone has the same experience like me? I watched this issue and got a lot of email with "+1", But no response from Atlassian at all!

+1

@ccowley - given the continued interest in this are we likely to hear an update from Atlassian soon? Thanks.

It’s not available on Cloud either for Classic projects. Next gen only.

It's a big miss that it's not present in Jira server product. Please add it.

Why is not present there? Is it on purpose to force people to use the Cloud version?
