Product management and development discuss JMP 17 and the R&D process
Hosted by product managers Dan Valente, Mia Stephens and Sam Gardner, the second day of Kickoff celebrated JMP software. It’s a product that our users love, developed by brilliant people dedicated to its continuous improvement on behalf of those users.
As Dan Valente, Sr. Manager of the Product Management team, put it: “When you use JMP every day, your life gets better.” And Dan should know. He’s been using JMP since version 4 when he needed it for an earth science project in high school.

Product Management lays out the JMP roadmap, prioritizing broad value, high-impact features that “when you start using them…you never want to go back to the previous version,” explained Dan.
