Beta Testing
Beta testing which is right after Alpha testing is considered one of the most important parts of the development process. It's usually when public users can to use the product developed and provide feedback and depending on the project how the project scales when lots of users are using the application and sharing data. It's usually in this phase that many "bugs" appear and many of them unexpected by the developer team. In my experience I've been a part of beta tests usually when it pertains with the gaming industry. Usually the product is very well into the development and is practically ready to launch but companies want to get a small sample size for feedback. It's one of the most well known phases of development since now a "buzz" word for modern development.

Don't forget to include sources on image. I think beta testing for startups is very different than well established companies. Startups will have very little alpha and pre-alpha testing (if any). Well established companies will often have a QA team as well as a group of individuals outside the company that perform automated and actual testing before releasing to public beta.
