The short version of the story is this. At about 9:15 p.m., I pulled into one of my favorite fast-food restaurants. There was one customer ahead of me in the drive-through lane. I assumed he was placing an order. After several minutes, I realized something else was going on. I wasn’t sure what, but the amount of time he spent talking to the person on the other end of the intercom took much longer than it should have.

“ Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so ”, wrote Douglas Adams in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Recent news from the CDP world might leave some CX leaders questioning whether “real-time” as advertised by some CDPs might actually be an illusion. The reality however is clear: customers expect brands to personalize their experience in real-time, and the brands that can not satisfy this expectation will get left behind.

Beta testing is often dumped on the plate of an already busy product manager during the hectic weeks before a product launch. To make matters worse, companies rarely have the tools and processes in place to run an effective beta test. As a result, beta ends up feeling more like a necessary evil that needs to get checked off of the list, rather than a valuable contribution to product development.

Product launches are often shrouded in secrecy, with a focus on making a big splash when the product is launched. Teams often devote months (if not years) to developing a new product, and as you get closer to the release, you get more and more nervous about confidential product details going public. In those final weeks, putting your product into the hands of a group of complete strangers for a beta test can feel like a huge risk.
