Roadmap Detalization – Now, Next, Later, Discovery

[Sergey Yanovskiy]

We are using Trello to keep track of our roadmaps and have Now (next 2 weeks), Next (2-4 weeks), Later (over 4 weeks) columns as well as a Discovery column (something similar to ProdPad structure). 

We want to bring it to Jira because it feels like a lot of admin work to maintain it across several places. 

In Jira, there is an opportunity to split between Now and Backlog, but it is not clear whether we could split Now into Now - Delivery and Now - Discovery, and Backlog into Next and Later.

We tried to build it using Next Gen board but it has its limitations. What are the workarounds might be?

We're experimenting with this too. Currently have a separate board for Product team to create Epics in Now, Next, Later - then sending stories to the working team boards. Everything maps back to the Epics and is visible in Portfolio with roll-up.

We also looked into Glidr.io

Interested to know if anyone else has a better set-up for this framework.
