Scope creep is the addition of requirements to a project in an uncontrolled fashion such that a project is at risk of missing deadlines and being overbudget.Feature creep is the addition of excessive features to a product or service such that it becomes less valuable to customers.
The DifferenceScope creep applies to projects and feature creep applies to products. The two terms have no relationship beyond the fact that they can theoretically occur at the same time. In many cases, feature creep occurs over many project iterations and is unrelated to scope creep. Likewise, a project that experiences scope creep doesn't necessarily produce a product that exhibits feature creep.|
