The best feature voting tools and software in 2026
Last updated 16th May 2026
Why use a feature voting tool?
Feature voting tools let your users surface and prioritize what matters most to them — rather than relying on whoever happens to email you loudest. With feature voting software, product teams can make roadmap decisions backed by data from their actual user base. The better options in this list also bundle a public roadmap and changelog, giving you a complete customer feedback loop in a single tool.

Detailed look at each feature voting tool
1. Noora
Noora is at the top of this list not just because we built it — we genuinely believe it offers the best value for money for SaaS teams that want feature voting, a public roadmap, and a changelog in a single tool. Unlike the enterprise options, Noora lets you start collecting feedback, segmenting users by revenue or plan tier, and automatically closing the feedback loop, all from $29/month. Unlike the cheaper options, you're not giving up the features that actually make feedback useful.

Noora benefits
- All three core tools included: feedback boards, public roadmap, and changelog — no add-ons or separate subscriptions required.
- Anonymous feedback on all plans, so you capture votes from users who haven't created an account in your portal.
- Advanced user segmentation on Growth and above — filter feedback by MRR, subscription plan, location, or any custom attribute you pass via the API, Intercom, or Segment.
- Automatic email notifications when a feature ships — every user who voted gets notified the moment you mark something as Shipped, with no manual effort.
- SEO support — your portal and changelog are indexed by search engines, and a sitemap is automatically generated when you connect a custom domain.
- Integrations with Slack, Intercom, Zapier, Jira, and Segment on paid plans.
Noora pricing
The Startup plan is $29/month ($14/month billed annually). The Growth plan is $59/month ($29/month annually) and unlocks user segmentation, private boards, a custom domain, Jira integration, and Segment. Enterprise is $129/month ($64/month annually) and adds custom CSS and white-labeling.

2. Canny
Canny is one of the most established names in the feature voting category and has continued to invest in its product. The biggest change in recent years is Autopilot — an AI layer that is included on every Canny plan, including the free tier. Autopilot automatically captures feedback from customer conversations, deduplicates similar requests, and generates smart replies. If your team receives a high volume of support conversations and wants AI to do the heavy lifting of feedback triage, Canny is a strong option.
Canny benefits
- AI Autopilot on all plans including free — automatically discovers and deduplicates feedback from conversations, generates smart replies, and summarizes comment threads.
- A generous free plan for small teams (up to 25 tracked users).
- Paid plans start at $19/month — more affordable than it used to be.
- Mature integrations ecosystem with 50,000+ companies using the platform.
Canny pricing
Canny offers a free plan for up to 25 tracked users. The Core plan is $19/month and the Pro plan (most popular) is $79/month. Business pricing is custom. Pricing scales with tracked users — anyone who posts, votes, or comments counts toward your quota.

3. UserVoice
UserVoice is built for large enterprise organizations — teams where feedback flows in from thousands of customers across multiple channels and requires a dedicated program to manage. Microsoft uses UserVoice for products like Teams and Excel. If you are a startup or growth-stage SaaS company, UserVoice will be overkill in both features and cost.
UserVoice benefits
- Purpose-built for enterprise-scale feedback management with compliance, security, and audit features to match.
- Volume-based pricing model — you are never charged per seat, which works well for large internal teams.
- Dedicated customer success manager and a structured 4–6 week onboarding program.
UserVoice pricing
UserVoice pricing starts at approximately $16,000/year (~$1,333/month), billed annually. There is no self-serve signup — all plans require a sales call. This puts UserVoice squarely in the enterprise tier alongside Salesforce and Zendesk.

4. ProductBoard
ProductBoard sits closer to a full product management platform than a simple feedback board. Beyond voting, it supports a detailed product hierarchy with epics, features, and objectives, plus custom prioritization scoring and deep integration with engineering tools. In 2025 they launched Spark — an AI-native PM product in public beta — as a separate companion tool aimed at PMs who want AI-assisted workflows for writing PRDs, analyzing feedback trends, and generating release notes.
ProductBoard benefits
- Free Starter plan for teams beginning to formalize their feedback process.
- Product hierarchy — create features, epics, and objectives so your roadmap reflects the actual structure of your product.
- Custom prioritization scores — rank requests by business impact, not just vote counts.
- Spark AI (beta) — AI-native companion for drafting specs, analyzing feedback themes, and generating acceptance criteria.
- Used by 6,000+ teams including Autodesk, Zoom, Salesforce, and Coca-Cola.
ProductBoard pricing
ProductBoard platform plans start at $19/maker/month (Essentials, billed annually) and $59/maker/month (Pro, billed annually). There is also a free Starter tier with limited usage. Enterprise pricing is custom. Note that pricing is per internal "maker" (team member), not per customer contact — costs can add up quickly for larger teams.

5. Upvoty
Upvoty is a focused feedback voting tool with a clean interface. It includes unlimited boards and users on all plans, custom domains, custom SSO, and user segmentation — a solid set of features at a mid-range price. It does not include a changelog or a standalone roadmap tool, so it is best suited for teams that already handle those separately.
Upvoty benefits
- Unlimited boards and users on all paid plans.
- Custom domain and custom SSO included on all tiers.
- User segmentation available without needing an enterprise plan.
- 14-day free trial, no credit card required.
Upvoty pricing
Upvoty plans start at $25/month (Power, 1 project), $49/month (Super, 1 project), and $99/month (Hyper, unlimited projects). No permanent free tier is available.

6. Nolt.io
Nolt is a lightweight, opinionated feedback board that does one thing simply. It is a good fit for teams that want a quick, no-fuss public feedback portal with minimal configuration. The tradeoffs are that it does not include a changelog, and its per-board pricing model becomes expensive if you manage multiple products.
Nolt.io benefits
- Extremely simple to get started with — minimal setup and configuration required.
- Clean, distraction-free UI that users find easy to navigate.
- Dark theme and customizable branding.
Nolt.io pricing
Nolt uses a per-board pricing model at approximately $25/month per board. No permanent free tier — a trial is available. Check nolt.io directly for the latest pricing as their pricing page has limited public availability.

7. Feature UpVote
Feature UpVote has been on the market since 2016, making it one of the longer-standing dedicated feature voting tools. It covers the core use case well — anonymous feedback, private boards, SAML SSO, and Jira integration are included on all paid plans. Like Nolt, it focuses purely on feedback voting without bundling a changelog or full roadmap.
Feature UpVote benefits
- Private boards and SAML SSO on all paid plans.
- Anonymous feedback without requiring user accounts.
- Unlimited contributors and team members on all plans.
- 30-day free trial with nearly all features enabled.
Feature UpVote pricing
The Indie plan is $49/board/month ($39.20 billed annually). The Standard plan is $99/board/month ($79.20 annually). Enterprise is custom. Per-board pricing means costs can add up quickly if you manage feedback across multiple products or teams.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a feature voting tool and a product roadmap tool?
Feature voting tools let your users submit and upvote ideas and feature requests. Product roadmap tools let you communicate what you are planning to build and when. The best tools — like Noora — combine both, so there is a direct connection between what users ask for and what appears on your roadmap. A changelog completes the loop by notifying users when their request ships.
Do I need a feature voting tool if I already use Jira or Linear?
Jira and Linear are internal engineering tools — your customers cannot submit ideas or see your priorities there. A feature voting tool is the customer-facing layer that sits in front of your internal backlog. The two work best in combination: Noora, Canny, and ProductBoard all offer Jira integrations so that voted requests can flow automatically into your engineering workflow.
Can users vote without creating an account?
It depends on the tool. Noora supports fully anonymous feedback on all plans, which removes friction and typically results in more participation. Canny, UserVoice, and ProductBoard require users to authenticate before they can vote, which reduces spam but also reduces response rates.
What about AI-powered feedback tools like Kraftful or Dovetail?
A newer category of AI-native tools like Kraftful, Dovetail, and Zeda.io has emerged that focuses on passively analyzing feedback from support tickets, call transcripts, and app store reviews — without requiring a public voting board at all. These tools are better suited to teams processing large volumes of unstructured feedback who need AI to surface themes automatically. For teams that want structured, community-driven feedback with a public roadmap and direct user engagement, the tools in this list remain the right choice.
