Switching

Moving over from Dovetail

You don’t have to switch in one go. Most teams run both for a few weeks and compare the results.
  1. 01

    Connect your tools

    Connect the tools your customers already talk in: your CRM, help desk, Slack, app stores or calls. No exports and no taxonomy to set up first. Dovetail keeps running meanwhile.

  2. 02

    Let it read the history

    Roadmappy reads the records in each source, filters the noise and groups the real problems into one ranked list. The first prioritised feedback is usually ready the same day.

  3. 03

    Turn feedback into plans

    Turn a feedback item into a Now, Next or Later card in one click. The card keeps the quotes and signals behind it, so the reason stays with the work.

  4. 04

    Compare side by side

    Put the top of Roadmappy’s ranked list next to what Dovetail shows you. Keep the one that tells you more about your customers.
