A product backlog is a running list of all the work that needs to be done on a software product. It’s used to prioritize work and serves as the go-to source for sprint planning on Agile projects.

Open-ended feature requests can bog your development team down and make it hard to focus on the things that move your product forward. A product backlog outlines all the requirements for a software development project in order of priority and time frame.

Anytime new work pops up over the course of product development, it’s added to the backlog in the form of a user story. That way nothing falls through the cracks.

Product development is an ever-evolving process, and a Scrum backlog should keep up with the changes. A well-managed backlog gives structure to your work so you can complete the most strategic and/or urgent tasks next.

We created a simple product backlog template to make developing and refining the backlog easier so you’ll be ready to dive into your next sprint planning session with a clear picture of your top priorities.

Customizing the template is quick and easy, thanks to TeamGantt’s drag and drop simplicity. And since everything’s online, your whole team can collaborate on activities in real time.
