STREAMLINE YOUR APP - Why Your SaaS Product is OVERLOADED With Features
In this episode of the Building Great Tech podcast, hosts Simon Hook and Anastasija Krysa delve into a startling statistic: 80% of features in SaaS products are rarely or never used. They explore the implications of this phenomenon, discussing the common pitfalls that lead teams to overinflate their product roadmaps with unnecessary features. From relying on assumptions to building for investors rather than users, Simon and Anastasija outline the nine main reasons behind feature bloat and the consequences it can have on user experience and business performance. They also provide actionable insights on how to trim existing features, reset your roadmap, and focus on what truly matters for your users. Join them as they challenge the notion that more features equate to more value and encourage a more strategic approach to product development.
