What do you think of listing missing features?

Interested in hearing what others think about listing missing features, in the sense of here are the features we provide and here is a list of features we don't currently support.

Have you seen any examples of SaaS companies doing this?

    Are you ever going to support said features?

    With Portabella I sometimes grey out things or put a BETA flag next to buttons...

      I like the idea of greying out the features that I will support going forward but haven't implemented yet.

      Portabella looks really interesting, and especially like the feature comparison table here: https://portabella.io/comparisons/trello/ refreshing to see that you have listed features that portabella doesn't currently support and not just listed the ones you do in the comparison.

        Ha I had forgotten about that table. I guess that post is a better answer to your question.

        In the end it's a balance of not wanting to BS people and not wanting to sell yourself too short.

    I’ve seen a lot of companies with public product roadmaps, which is perhaps a more elegant way of doing what you are suggesting. Unless the goal is to filter out some non-ideal customers.

      I think I want to highlight both features that I probably will never implement as well as features I have in the pipeline, hadn't considered public product roadmaps, good shout.
      Thanks
