At home, I have Verizon FIOS for TV and the Internet and that was after having my cable provider, Optimum for about 13 years. A few months back, I was enticed to re-sign with Optimum and their new Altice converter box/router. When it came the day of installation, the Altice system failed during installation and the installer told me that the Altice system was buggy and wouldn’t be great for another 4 months, so I canceled the installation.
As a plan provider, you can’t afford something buggy that won’t work. Whether it’s your website or an app or any type of system where plan sponsors have an interface, you can’t afford to look bad in front of clients and other providers. You only get one chance to get it right and that’s what beta testing is all about.
