While adding new features can sometimes add value, feature creep often carries significant risks:
Increased Costs: Each new feature requires additional resources, which can inflate the budget. Extended Timelines: Adding new features can delay the project timeline, impacting time-to-market. Quality Issues: Overloading a product with features can introduce bugs and reduce overall quality. Customer Confusion: Products with too many features can become difficult for users to navigate, leading to poor user experience.
