Legacy products can be quiet killers of SaaS momentum. They drain resources, dilute brand clarity, and distract teams from strategic growth. Yet many companies hesitate to sunset them, fearing revenue loss, internal resistance, or pushback from sales teams that want as many options as possible.
This guide is for anyone staring down a bloated product portfolio and wondering when to make the hard call. I’ve retired dozens of legacy solutions across multiple portfolios, and while not every exit was perfect, each one sharpened my understanding of what works. Emotional and operational inertia often stand in the way of making the right call, especially when that portfolio was assembled through acquisitions. That’s why I’ve distilled eight practical strategies to help you lead the transition with confidence. From defining product viability and aligning cross-functional teams to designing flexible migration paths and preserving customer momentum, this guide offers a clear framework for action. You’ll also find tactics for segmenting users, managing data continuity, and personalizing support.
If you’re ready to clean up your portfolio, refocus your roadmap, and assure strategic clarity, don’t let clutter distract you from what matters. Download the full guide and take control of the narrative. Your best products deserve the space to grow. Your customers deserve a roadmap that moves forward.
