I guess it just depends on your needs , but it does get to be a bit outlandish , if you ask me . According to the Merriam - Webster dictionary , a beta is " a nearly complete prototype of a product . " In other words , a not - yet - finished product . Google is known for keeping their products in beta ( much ) longer than most other companies .
