In Producter, documentation is an essential component for every team. With only one documentation, Producter took its first steps. It all started with just a few words written down on paper for many products that have become indispensable in our lives. A blank white page and a few ideas are all you need to start creating a product.
Documentation isn't just necessary at the beginning. As your company progresses, documentation denotes your status as a business enterprise or small business. This means that product-related processes should be documented at the point when they begin and end. A lack of documentation will lead to the ideas becoming trash, and they will never be reunited.
The ability to write a document has always proved to be beneficial to us in the future, no matter how hard it may seem. Without documentation, it is difficult to make decisions and plan ahead. The single source of truth is found in the decisions that arise in the documentation, as well as the things that these decisions lead to.
The saying "spoken words fly away, written words remain" has a certain ring to it. Everyone in Producter has adopted it and we keep documenting any critical changes. Due to this, we never let anything slip through the cracks, and most things remain in order. In Producter, we also believe all the processes should be as frictionless as possible. This is why we keep all our product documents close to where our product decisions are made, Producter.
Having documents in a different location than your workspace leads to friction and poor compliance. For example, let's say you're trying to create feedback from the action points of last week's meeting that you have documented. The conversion can be completed in perfect harmony since the feedback and documents are in the same workspace. You can also create tasks from a document for better understanding.
Creating templates of the documents used frequently in your team also reduces friction. When creating a document you have never created before, templates make your job easier and allow you to write an accurate document.
Producter is a product management tool designed to become customer-driven.
It helps you collect feedback, manage tasks, sharing product updates, creating product docs, and tracking roadmap.
