You can get a free account that will let you use our idea management tool as you get started. For teams with a more complex idea management process, we offer several plans on our pricing page that offer powerful features and integrations with other tools.
Lots of ways! Once you've set up your idea management platform in Canny, you can invite people to visit and add their ideas. You can also add ideas on behalf of your users — either directly or through one of our communication tool integrations.
Your users' feedback is a great way to drive ideation and innovation. By capturing that feedback in a new idea, and having other users discuss it and vote for it, you can discover new opportunities that your competitors haven't thought of. While brainstorming, mind maps, and other innovation activities are valuable, learning from your users is the most insightful innovation effort you can do.
Canny's prioritization tools let you decide which ideas are most important to your business. You can create your own prioritization formula that scores your ideas based on the criteria you set. Common factors are vote count, effort required, and associated revenue.
