Did anybody ask you this question? WHAT IS A FEATURE? Well checkout different perception of people in different department within the same Company ..... One Product doesn't fit all :)
productmarketing.com: "What's a feature?
When Daniel Shefer asks, 'What's a feature?' the answer depends...
Marketing - A feature is what we need to increase market share.
Sales - A feature is what we promised the customer to close the sale.
Business Development - No idea what a feature is but we?re sure we can partner with someone to find out.
QA - If we can't auto test it, it's a bug.
Development - That's not a bug, that's an undocumented feature.
Support - A feature is a rope given to customers to hang themselves with.
Services - A feature is one more thing to customize.
The CFO - A reason to increase the price of the product.
The VC - A feature is a barrier to entry that you set up to prevent competition from entering the market.
Customer - The feature is what I asked for but not what I really needed."
