Traditional MVP development can drag on for months and months… or even longer

“What I liked about working with MetaCTO the most was that they worked really fast, so they didn't let me be a roadblock to my own success. They listened, they made recommendations and they worked with little guidance. They were able to take a small vision and turn it into something much greater."
