About the epics roadmap template

New features are exciting. But an individual feature does not typically have a big impact on your customers. It is the groups of related features — or epics — that truly create something special.

The epics roadmap template is ideal for showcasing when you plan to complete each epic by release. (Of course, the work required to actually deliver an epic might well span multiple releases.) Release dates are high-level in this view — indicating monthly targets.

Use this template to guide planning discussions and backlog prioritization — making sure that upcoming features or user stories align with top-priority epics. Adjust the roadmap to meet your needs. For example, you can change the background color of each epic to convey status or add a progress bar to track updates once work gets underway. Convert epics on your whiteboard into actionable work items in Aha! Roadmaps to make your plans a reality.
