We are interested in all sorts of internal "Suggestion Box" type ideas.
We've standardized to Jira tickets and a community forum built on Jive.
People submit topics in Jira or on the forum and others vote with their
comments. They can suggest or comment on just about anything related to
improve products, processes, and people.
Our docs team demoed UserVoice for doc-specific issues, because it has a
voting engine. But as priorities dictate our direction, we aren't so
concerned in the number of votes. We only need to find the interested
parties who could help build the requirements. The discussion oriented
forums provide better context, and are more meaningful.
