Innovator: a high risk profile, tries new things as they come up even if he knows they aren’t so stable yet. Accepts some flaws as “necessary steps to prune the product”. Loves to get involved by giving feedback, appreciates when he gets answers to his feedback because he feels listened to.
Early adopters: usually wait first stable release, are among the first to implement stable changes. They have a plethora of valid reasons not to risk trying out an unstable product but want to benefit as much as possible of all new stable features as they get released. He thinks being early adopter helps him stay on top of his industry for he has the best technology available at any given moment. Gives feedback in case he finds something he needs the product to do, he is eager to help in developing the new features he needs for he will be the first to benefit from that when those features become a stable part of the product.
