Google was a search box. Yahoo was a directory. YouTube let you search and play videos. Many of the best applications started with humble beginnings, simple user experiences, and demonstrable value to end users. So why is it that many product owners over engineer their minimally viable product with too many "must have' features, data integrations, user interfaces with an oversupply of bells.

However, in practice the suite-style solution doesn't really pan out as planned because it’s difficult for a vendor to be the best solution in all of those areas.
