Before, our process was simply to ask, listen and create. Now, as a part of Planview, we\u2019re taking things a step further. We want more than just our customers\u2019 opinions. We want them to be our partners in development.<\/p>\n<p>With the release of <a title=\"Troux 12\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/planview-enterprise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Troux 12<\/a>, we have reached a new milestone for customer success: the adoption of Planview\u2019s Inner Circle community for joint-customer development. With the Inner Circle program, we have the opportunity to directly connect to our customers \u2014 the people who know the use cases and capabilities of our product \u2014 and incorporate their feedback during the development process itself.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Typically, an Inner Circle convenes for each release.<\/li>\n<li>The Inner Circle focuses on specific features of the Troux product line, working directly with our product managers to hone requirements for enhancement areas.<\/li>\n<li>Members meet with our product management and development teams once each month to preview specific features related to the Inner Circle subject area.<\/li>\n<li>Members\u2019 comments are incorporated into the development process.<\/li>\n<li>Changes are then incorporated into the software, available for Inner Circle members to review during the next monthly meeting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In developing Troux 12, we convened an Inner Circle of 20 customers around application portfolio management. These users came from our broad customer base, in industries ranging from aerospace and retail to health care and banking. We combined their years of field testing with best practices of our consulting team, resulting in customer-driven enhancements that will accelerate time to value.<\/p>\n<p>It was exciting to take part in this process and see new developments firsthand. Our customers said what makes the Inner Circle program so valuable is its focus on one particular area at a time. They get a feeling of real accomplishment, knowing what they\u2019re developing with us isn\u2019t some abstract feature for future products. It\u2019s happening now, in real time, and they are just as committed to seeing it through as we are.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, version 12 marks a change in the release cadence for Troux, from annually to biannually. Now, we\u2019re better able to more frequently incorporate customer feedback and accurately prioritize the changes and additions that need to be made. The end result is a cycle of continual improvement and an optimum product for our users.<\/p>\n<p>The answer is 12 \u2013 <a title=\"Troux 12\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/planview-enterprise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Troux 12<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Check back for additional information on APM and visualizations in Troux 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my 15 years with Troux, we\u2019ve stood at the forefront of enterprise architecture software development and we\u2019ve never done it alone.
