The key differences, explained
Here is what actually matters when choosing between Kandidly and Canny.
Feedback collection is just the beginning
Canny is excellent at capturing and organizing user feedback. But once you have the feedback, you're on your own — you still need a separate roadmap tool, a changelog, and some way to notify customers when things ship. Kandidly handles all of that in one connected workflow: feedback → triage → roadmap → release → changelog → customer notification.
AI that surfaces insight, not just votes
Canny's model relies on vote counts to determine priority. Kandidly's AI goes further — it groups feedback into semantic themes, weights votes by customer revenue, flags urgent churn signals, and produces weekly insight reports. You get a full picture of what matters most, not just what got the most upvotes.
Complete release management built in
Canny has no release tracking. Kandidly tracks every release from kickoff to shipped, linked to Jira or GitHub issues and automatically published to your changelog and in-app widget. Your team always knows what's in flight, and your customers always know what shipped.
