Have you ever wondered if it was possible to increase staff size without spending more? The idea of saving money while hiring more competent staff might sound strange to you. But trust us, it’s not. This can be achieved with offshore development.
If your company is in a rut because you can’t find the perfect people to work for it, we know it can feel frustrating. We understand.
But that’s what we did for QTEGO – we helped them save on costs while expanding their software developer team through offshore development.
Read more below to learn how we did it and how you can jump on the bandwagon!
A Tough Predicament
QTEGO, a dynamic crowdfunding and event platform started by two visionary brothers, began a journey to develop their software application.
Initially, they sought top-tier development talent but faced a common challenge: high costs. They decided to work with a developer from TopTal who, despite delivering impressive results, was costing them $120,000 a year for just 20 hours of work per week.
As a result, as QTEGO grew, they needed a more cost-effective solution that didn’t compromise quality. Scaling their business became impossible—at least in their minds.
Let’s look at the challenges they were facing and why they needed to solve their problems.
QTEGO’s Initial Challenge
QTEGO’s reliance on an expensive part-time developer from TopTal was a double-edged sword, and this was the company’s challenge.
This was a challenge because while the developer delivered valuable work, the cost of keeping them was significantly high. This high expense led QTEGO to face a critical decision: continue with their current arrangement or explore alternative options that could offer both quality and cost savings.

QTEGO’s Decision to Explore An Alternative
In July 2023, Lovely from our SDR team contacted QTEGO, introducing CoDev as a potential alternative for them.
Initially, QTEGO was skeptical. After all, their current developer had set a high benchmark, and switching seemed risky. To put it in another way, their current developer was killing it.
However, in September 2023, QTEGO decided to give CoDev a shot. They agreed to a “trial” period to test the capabilities of our developers against their existing solution.
Here’s how CoDev helped them solve their problem.
CoDev’s Tailored Offshore Development Solution For QTEGO
During this testing phase, we assigned two highly skilled developers from CoDev to QTEGO. These developers were tasked with critical projects and responsibilities similar to those the previous TopTal developer handled.
Our team quickly made an impact. They matched and exceeded expectations, efficiently delivering high-quality work. The feedback from QTEGO was overwhelmingly positive, and it became clear that CoDev’s developers could provide exceptional value at a more competitive rate than their competitors.
As a result, QTEGO brought in more of our developers because of their value to the company.
Here’s a detailed look into how we helped them succeed:
Impact and Results
The results of our collaboration were impressive. QTEGO was not only pleased with the performance of CoDev’s developers but also experienced significant cost savings. The high-quality work provided by our team of offshore developers led QTEGO to make a decisive move: they discontinued their previous arrangement with TopTal and fully transitioned to CoDev.
In addition to the initial two developers, QTEGO expanded its team with three more positions filled by CoDev’s talent. This growth in staff size shows the success of our partnership and our ability to meet QTEGO’s evolving needs.
The Role of Customer Success to Client Success
Our Customer Success team played a crucial role in this success story. Our team ensured that QTEGO was consistently satisfied with our services, promptly addressed concerns, and maintained open communication lines with the leadership. Our Customer Success Team’s proactive approach was vital to keeping QTEGO engaged and confident in our capabilities.
