How do you create a product roadmap template in Excel or Google Sheets?
-
Create structure: columns A–F = ID, Initiative/Epic, Owner, Priority (High/Med/Low), Start date, End date. Columns G→ = timeline dates (day/week/month) across row 1.
-
Populate rows with initiatives. Add Duration formula in a helper column: =C2-B2 (adjust columns).
-
Make a Gantt view: select timeline area and apply conditional formatting with formula (example for row 2, timeline starting at G1): =AND($B2<=G$1,$C2>=G$1). Set fill color to show bars. Copy down.
-
Add data validation for Priority and Status, and conditional formatting rules (red/yellow/green) for Priority or Status cells.
-
Add Dependencies column (IDs), freeze panes (View → Freeze), and enable filters on header row.
-
Create a summary sheet: pivot or COUNTIFS to show counts by owner/priority and upcoming milestones. To share, export to PDF or publish sheet.
Want a downloadable starter file (Excel and Google Sheets) with this template pre-built, or prefer a week-based vs month-based timeline?
