Focused on delivering value – whether building or buying software or implementing or configuring software, our engineers seek to meet or exceed organizational and performance objectives through strategic quality assurance services delivered by five distinct practice areas. These services are part of all engagements we execute across multiple industries, utilizing a variety of technologies, including custom dev, on prem, and SaaS/cloud, as well as latest innovations in support of AI, IoT, blockchain, and big data. Common outcomes achieved by our quality assurance services include:
Reduce Cost of Quality
Reduce Impact of Poor Quality
Increase Software Development Velocity
Performance Engineering
QA Consultants approaches performance engineering with the belief that value is achieved when changes can be made to software to improve the experience for the user. By improving the performance for one user, significant value can be achieved before load is applied. When performance engineering is implemented correctly, the performance test validates the hypothesis and the tuning that was performed versus using testing serving as the beginning of the process. The core part of performance engineering is to utilize observability and data analysis from lower environments and production, when possible, to drive performance tuning objectives.

Hello Fresh is a global, well-recognized brand in the meal kit industry. At Hello Fresh, we know the paramount importance that quality has on the customer experience and the reputation of the brand, especially in the eCommerce industry. One of the biggest challenges we were facing was that our teams and products were growing both in size and complexity, and our QA process was unfortunately not scaling well to keep up with the growth. We were looking for a QA partner that essentially had a proven track record of testing both mobile and web platforms. One of the main reasons that we chose [QAC] was the fact that they had a very wide variety of QA services and testing services, and they were able to provide processes that have helped our release processes ever since we worked with them. Ultimately, QAC decreased our project timelines, improved our QA process, and increased our confidence in future product releases.

At Apply Digital, we build digital products, and these days the products are part of our everyday lives, whether it’s an app on your phone, your TV, or your watch. QA Consultants are really good at Quality Assurance, and together we partnered on building great solutions for all our clients. At Apply, we pride ourselves on gaining our clients’ trust by delivering positive outcomes for their businesses. QA Consultants provided us test leadership in terms of planning the right test approach staffing the right resources and efficient execution of those test plans for our projects. Would I recommend QA consultants? Absolutely. It doesn’t feel like we’re two separate companies. We’re working very closely together for our clients’ best interests.

TEAM Software does enterprise-class ERP software for distributing workforce management. The problem that we were facing was a dramatic sudden scale in both data volumes and concurrent users on our platform. All the little steps we took along the way with QAC’s help and partnership culminated in us not having a bad event. The fact that we delivered our product on time, and the platform ran with an increase in load and customers and concurrent end-users…to me, the ROI speaks for itself.

Digital.ai is a one-stop solution for software development life cycles. We were having some challenges with our product – some bottlenecks and some scaling issues. With QAC’s help, we were able to see through testing where we were at, we had two members added to the team, and we were ready to take it from there. Even now, we reach out to QAC and still get their support. The one thing I really like about QAC is the people and their culture. For that reason, I would really like to work with QAC again.

Allcal is an event management solution for conferences, expos, and festivals. We have been working with QA Consultants to help with a lot of new features that we’re launching at big conventions. The quality of our product is very important, and we can’t just release a brand-new feature to thousands of people without feeling confident that it is going to work well. QA Consultants actually had an on-demand model that would work perfectly for the model we were going to launch in a few days, and we were able to get back a lot of valuable information from them in such a short turnaround. The biggest long-term value with QA Consultants is that we can go to clients with massive success stories that help us get our next run of business.
