"Companies across industries are rolling out new products faster than ever, and their development teams need to feel confident they can run tests more quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality or user experience. With Vista's investment and partnership, we hope to accelerate mabl's vision, support its continued upward trajectory, and further enable its customers to build the tools they need to compete in a digital world."
