In my personal experience, complexity of the product.
Anyone can start a new product with 1/10th of the features of a competitor and feel that large corporations are slow and inefficient.
Hammering out all of the edge cases and flushing out a product is often what takes a lot of time and manpower. Not to mention dealing with a larger number of customers who probably use said product.
There are success stories of small shops who automate everything, or who offer a product that is so simple (not a knock, actually a complement) that it can be run by a small team. Complexity is the enemy to shops like this, and I think few know how to avoid it in the long run.
