+1 to Jason Priest's comment  - Seriously though, please up-vote instead of spamming. They don't read or care about your comments.

Dear baby Jesus (& all the other 'prophets'),

Please, inspire people to read the following earlier comment (from Esther Strom [ACP-JA]):

Could everyone stop with the +1 comments? Atlassian has indicated multiple times that they base their backlog on votes, so if you don't have anything constructive to add, just vote for the issue up at the top. All you're doing with the comments is spamming everyone who may be watching the issue.

If someone could add this into the description so many of us would be grateful.

Amen

P.S. Sorry for the spamming but I'm hopeful it might help.

Jira, you are probably hesistant due to the revenue stream received from 3rd party plugins for roadmaps... but please give your customers what they want! Practice what you preach

I'd encourage everyone watching this request to also vote for "parallel sprints" feature which will unblock switch to NextGen for a lot of us: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17195

+1. Roadmap is the most useful tool for communication between product manager and stakeholders, so it's highly important to have it in Jira

Need tis for classic projects, please!

Exact same issue as all. Currently lack of multiple boards block us from using next-gen projects.

Same problem, next-gen project are too simple to be used for our team : cannot create multiple board on a single project, cannot run our workflow.... 

Roadmap is a precious tools, and we would be grateful if you add it into classic project!

This feature would truly benefit the classic projects, can you please add? I am not sure, what is the rationale behind not having it for the classic projects, can someone pls elaborate?

Looking forward to using the roadmap feature in my classic projects soon!!

Thanks, this would be extremely useful!!! We tried using next-gen projects but they're just way too limited in functionality, so we're using classic projects. I've been using the Next Gen roadmaps for planning but they don't integrate with the classic projects so it's just not real useful. If this functionality was in classic it would greatly improve our planning process here, couldn't tell you how useful this would be for us!

Agree.  Please add this.  We are using complex work flows, custom filters that are not yet supported in Next Gen projects. It would be great if we can have this feature in classic.

The frustrating part is - I know ‘just’ is a hated word when specing an enhancement - it should just be a case of adding an epic start and end date to issues in classic projects and let it use the same screens. Next-gen projects just don’t work for ourselves, if they did I probably would save the monthly fee and use Trello with the custom fields power up.

Jira Product Manager - you have received significant feedback about the need for Jira Roadmap for Jira Classic Projects. I think it is time for Atlassian to provide direction and feedback regarding this request, and how Atlassian intents to handle this issue. 

Jira next-gen is not an option for us to move to because of the lack of administrative capabilities and ability to interact between next-gen projects. We have over 50 Jira classic projects.

If the idea is to force Jira classic customers to sign-up for Jira Portfolio then this is a bad strategy that is negatively impacting your biggest customers, due the the per-user pricing of Jira Portfolio or its competitor BigPicture.

Please provide us with the courtesy of a response to this ticket. 

We would also like this for classic projects. We have only starting using Jira 2 years ago and still are working on "spreading the word" across the enterprise. Also, as others have mentioned, while next-gen is more streamlined, it's not as robust as we need (and I suspect the same is true for many Jira customers). 

I waaaaaannnnnt this for classic product !!!!!!!!!  plzzzz.

I do agree with comments above, this needs to be replicated for classic projects, there are lots of functionalities missing in next gen, and it's risky to migrate or use it, so improve the classic one and do not waste time doing a new framework when that roadmap it would be more useful in the classic projects, and try not to ask for money for any simple feature you do.

This would be a great addition to the classic project!

I would like to have his feature in my classic projects.

we would benefit greatly if we can have roadmaps for classic projects. 

Don't have information on your business @Atlassian, but I imagine that:

• most of your clients are on Classic Projects
• Jira is used for task management but it's a lot of times used for product management as well

With these 2 assumptions it's unacceptable that the migration to new-gen projects (explained here https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/migrate-between-next-gen-and-classic-projects-957974933.html) is missing so many functionalities. Look, I have thousands of tasks, how exactly do you expect me to match all the relationships again? It's quite un-reasonable and feels again as a half-shipped feature.

Please Put Road Maps on Classic Projects

I would like to have this feature for the Classic Projects.

In our case BigPicture is just stuffed with a lot of features we don't need. And the costs are a no go. 

Also a upvote for the simple roadmap in a classic project.

Can BigPicture Add-In solve your use case? 

It's a shame that Atlassian doesn't support Roadmaps for classic projects.

Probably need to shift to some other tool that has builtin support for roadmaps.

is that roadmap the same roadman we are discussing here?   And why premium? I am already pasying for Jira Cloud, I have to pay more to use roadmap?? Then I think I would rather pay an addon instead? 

@Kenny Dickie @Jeff Fritz - I really hope this isn't the case, that would be terrible news

@Kenny Dickie - it seems a little disingenuous to take a highly upvoted/commented feature and place it into a higher tier premium plan (presumably at a higher cost)

since the next gen projects don't seem to support an enterprise implementation in terms of permissions granularity, I can't  use them. Frustrating to see this feature locked off.

2020 - Build a roadmap that incorporates work from multiple teams

First, will this new multi-team roadmap be supported in Classic and Next-Gen? Second, will customers be required to purchase Jira Software Premium to get this multi-team roadmap functionality? 

Would love to see Roadmap in Classic Projects... 

Would love to have Roadmap feature in Classic Projects. Classic Projects are still very relevant.

I do think this would be very useful for Classic Projects. 

I'll also throw out there it would be excellent if you could also use Releases or Epics as the basis for the roadmap. Releases have start and end dates already, it could be a roadmap view in the Release section. 

This is really needed for Classic Projects

Agreed, It'll be very useful to have roadmaps for Jira Classic projects.

Would love to have this feature in Classic. Seems like a simple integration considering its already been built for Interactive.

we need roadmaps for Jira Classic

Would like to hear some sort of update on this.  This issue should probably be converted to a Story as it's not really a subtask for Next-Gen Projects.

Strategic full stack roadmapping tool https://dragonboat.io/ that I've been using at my company.

Basically it is structured to align strategically, plan/forecast & manage, setting you up to do a cleaner quarterly planning. It lays on top of JIRA. The simple roadmapping tool is fine, but this adds in the layers that are necessary to actually work on the right epics. 

Dear Uncle Atlassian, I just want to express that here is another nephew that is super interested in the Product roadmap feature, but due to the nature of the business, we are still using a classic project, and moving towards a next-gen one would cause a lot of friction (customization and all that..and honestly, the fact that we are a small company and no one is really the Jira "admin" ina professional sense of the word). Looking forward to seeing this feature for classic projects

Did Atlassian really just let someone use their comment board for a new feature as a place to pitch and promote his own project? Hats off to you @chuckfoster - you deserve credit for leveraging a captive audience. #noshameinyourgame #getterdone #capitalizeonaneed

Just adding my support here. If we switched to next gen, we would lose a lot of additional configurability that we rely on. If we stay with classic, we can't have a great way of organizing roadmaps. There is already great versioning and epic support; this is the next step for portfolio management in classic projects.

This is key, as Next-Gen Projects will not work for us until well into the year 2020 - https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/whats-new/next-gen#result-b8046a15

I would like to know what the longer term plan of "Classic" project type is on the Jira roadmap.

This would be amazing... Our team loves the idea of the Roadmap planner, but are worried about the ever changing landscape of the next gen board!

It's could be great if you guys can enable this feature in the classic project, today I'm using Lquidplanner tool and integrate with Jira and it's a mess!! so I'm really exciting to see this functionality into classic project soon!  

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.
