The starting point

About this template

A product feature vote form brings structure to one of product management's oldest challenges: figuring out which of many possible improvements will deliver the most value to the most customers. Customer requests pour in through support tickets, Twitter mentions, sales calls, and NPS surveys — and without a systematic way to aggregate and rank them, the loudest voices tend to drive the roadmap rather than the most common needs.

More about this template

The design of this template solves a key problem with feature voting: the difference between 'I'd use this' and 'this is my top priority.' The checkbox section captures broad interest; the single-choice radio forces a true commitment. Pair those two signals with the use case field — which surfaces the specific job a customer is trying to accomplish — and you have everything you need to evaluate not just what customers want but why they want it.

formformform makes distributing a feature vote simple whether you're a three-person startup or a 200-person product team. Share the link in your release notes, your customer community, your support portal, or a dedicated feedback email. Results accumulate in real time, and the optional email field lets you reach out to power voters for follow-up discovery interviews.

Best practices for your product feature vote

Mirror the options exactly in both questions

the checkbox and single-choice radio should list the same features so customers can narrow from broad interest to top pick without confusion.

Segment results by plan tier

free users and enterprise customers often want different things. The user type dropdown makes it possible to see which features matter most to your highest-value segment.

Weight votes by customer value

a vote from your enterprise customer carries different strategic weight than a vote from a free-tier user. Export and annotate results accordingly.

Use the use case field for discovery

the open text field often surfaces problems you didn't know existed. Read these before your next discovery sprint.

Close the loop

email voters when the feature they requested ships. This builds loyalty and increases future vote participation dramatically.

Re-run quarterly

roadmap priorities shift. A feature vote from six months ago may not reflect current customer needs. Make this a recurring practice.

Frequently asked questions

How is a feature vote form different from a general feedback form?

A feature vote form is structured to produce comparable, rankable data. Instead of free-text suggestions that are hard to aggregate, voters choose from the same set of options — making it straightforward to count, rank, and segment responses.

Should I include features I've already decided to build?

Avoid it. Including committed features inflates their vote counts and skews the relative ranking of genuinely undecided items. List only features where the vote results can actually influence the decision.

How many feature options should I include?

Six to ten options is the sweet spot. Fewer than six limits the value of the forced-choice question; more than ten makes evaluation fatigue set in and reduces the quality of responses.

Can I use this to validate a completely new feature idea?

Yes. Add the new concept as one of the options alongside existing requests. Its relative vote share tells you how it compares to things customers are already asking for.

What do I do with the willingness-to-pay question?

Use it to prioritize features that could unlock upsells. If a feature gets high votes and strong 'yes, I'd pay more' responses, it's a candidate for a premium tier rather than a free upgrade.

Is there a limit on how many customers can vote?

No. formformform collects unlimited submissions at no cost, so you can share the poll with your entire customer base regardless of size.
