80/20 rule for Good Enough products

If that 80 percent number rings a bell, it's because of the famous Pareto principle, also know as the 80/20 rule.  And it happens to be a recurring theme  in Good Enough products.  You can think of it this way: 20 percent of the effort, features, or investment often delivers 80 percent of the value to consumers.  that means you can drastically simplify a product or service in order to make it more accessible and still keep 80 percent of what users want - making it Good Enough.
