Cons	Brightidea The backend project management portion could be easier to utilize and connect idea from inception to execution. In a large organization having multiple approvers and viewers of the prioritized ideas can be challenging. Would love to see a robust report and measurment tool that connects the full story of the idea. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	BRI No answers on this topic
