Hi Sheels,

If you opt to work with several roadmaps, I would also use several product backlogs, one for each variant. I also recommend that you focus on the users and their needs to decide if and how many product variants are right, not the stakeholders.

Good luck!

Thanks for the prompt response, Roman.
For variants of a product, I like the idea you have suggested. Yes, the target groups are largely identical although some features are beneficial to one group compared to the other across stakeholder base. However, the overall goal is the digitization journey of the product.

Even if I create multiple product roadmaps, can I still have one product backlog that is derived from variants of my product?
Shall experiment and keep you posted on the outcome.

You’re welcome Rizki!

Thank you for sharing your feedback and question Sheels. It’s great to hear that you have found my contents helpful.

Form what you told me, it sounds to be as if you are experimenting with creating different variants of your product. If that’s the case, then I would recommend using an overarching product vision and strategy and create a separate product roadmap for each variant, assuming that the target groups and needs are (largely) identical. If that’s not the case, use a shared vision but separate strategies and roadmaps.

Does this answer your question?
