    Idea moderation improvementsNew Idea

    We recently launched the Ideation module in our community and have been gathering feedback from our Product Managers on ways the moderation experience could be improved. Moving Ideas into our community has created a more unified customer experience, but there are several moderation and workflow capabilities our PMs relied on previously that would help streamline Idea management within Gainsight CC.Below are the enhancements our team would most like to see:Filtering & Idea ManagementIn our previous Ideas platform, filtering and reporting capabilities made it much easier for PMs to identify trends and customer activity. Our team would love to see additional filtering options such as:View all Ideas voted on by organization or email domain View all Ideas created by organization or email domain View all Ideas commented on by organization or email domain Easier workflows for identifying and merging related IdeasLonger term, our team would also be very interested in AI-powered Idea management capabilities to help:Identify duplicate or related Ideas Surface Ideas tied to similar topics or themes Analyze customer sentiment across submissionsWe realize AI functionality is a more forward-looking request, but wanted to share it as a future enhancement opportunity.Easier Idea MergingOur PMs would also love to see a more streamlined workflow for merging Ideas. Ideally:Click “Merge” Search for the related Idea using a type-ahead search (Idea name or URL) Complete mergeAdditionally, we’ve noticed that when Ideas are merged in Gainsight, the merged Idea currently only receives an automated comment at the bottom of the post. Users are still able to vote and comment on the original Idea, which can create confusion and fragment engagement across duplicate submissions.It would be helpful to improve the front-end experience and moderation controls for merged Ideas by:Displaying a more visible banner or notification at the top of the merged Idea Restricting additional voting and commenting activity on merged Ideas More clearly directing users to the active Idea threadModerator NotificationsWe would like the ability to assign PMs as moderators for specific product areas within Ideas. This would allow them to receive email notifications whenever a new Idea is submitted in the areas they oversee, helping them stay informed without needing to manually monitor the system throughout the day.Product Area PermissionsOne additional enhancement that would be valuable is the ability to restrict Idea submissions to specific product areas based on customer licensing. Ideally, licensing information could be used to create segments and we could give certain segments the ability to post in certain product areas. We recognize this is a complex request but would appreciate the consideration. Our customers are regularly posting in the wrong product area and it take a lot of time to manually sort and move posts.
