Deton-8. Blastobox-3. Demo-1... One of these is the name of a SpaceX crew capsule test now due to launch in March

Reliable or not?

I don't quite understand why it is that NASA (and Russia, of course) have spent many years testing and pretty much perfecting their space vehicles (although tragic accidents, as we all know, have unfortunately happened) and yet these rising upstarts claim to have things ready, willing and able in very short order without the benefit of all that experience. All sounds pretty risky to me, with shades of running before they can walk!
