What is Product Value?

Product Value is the benefit that a product provides to a customer to increase their satisfaction and needs. It can also be considered as the benefit that the organization gains from the product represented in terms of money, or benefit to society. When a team and organization deliver value, they are contributing to aspects like customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, brand reputation and the longevity of a business - business value.
