FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Software Company Expands to Latin America
Austin-based TESTCo adds same time zone services with new testing services sourced from Mexico
Austin, TX - August 26, 2009 - As businesses start to recover amid signs of the recession ending, Austin-based TESTCo, a premier On-Demand Software Testing company, is seizing an opportunity to build infrastructure in Latin America where growth is expected to continue for a number of years, the company announced today.
"Our presence in Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico City will put us in a position to service many more cities and countries with the lightning fast service our clients have come to expect from us," says Jeff Hotz, president and CEO of TESTCo. "The time is right for expansion and Latin America offers a lot of unique opportunities for us in addition to maintaining our current method of operating from Eastern Europe."
Hotz acknowledges there are lots of outsourced IT companies already in Mexico, but TESTCo Latino America will be one of only two companies whose focus is exclusively on software testing. Mexico, he says, is a growing market demanding higher quality each day as it’s premier companies expand their competition on the world stage. TESTCo has recognized that ambition all across Latin America and will bring its expertise to the table in an additional market which promises to serve even more clients and in their current time zone.
TESTCo Latino America will serve Latin American and US-based clients who want same time zone services and/or want on-site help from test engineers. Now, testers can even work at the same time the developers are working across the United States and Latin America.
"Of course, we remain committed to our mission overseas with our partners in India and Eastern Europe," Hotz says. "This new branch simply allows us to continue the growth of our company while providing even greater customer satisfaction. Mexico is making it clear that software and product quality is paramount. We recognize this effort and we’re ready to seize the opportunity with top-notch technical talent who have English as a second language."
Hotz estimates more than half to two-thirds of the businesses in Latin America currently work with outsourced IT companies in and around Mexico – mainly because of the convenience. And, that’s something TESTCo will be able to directly handle with its new Latin American connection.
"Our On-Demand Software Testing skills are second to none and now our expanded reach will help us deliver to even more businesses in a new environment in addition to our work in India and Eastern Europe," says Hotz.
Recently named to the Austin Business Journal’s Fast 50 list, TESTCo has seen incredible growth even amidst some of the worst economic conditions in history. The On-Demand Software Testing company prides itself on the ability to meet the needs of fast moving businesses and companies that find themselves with too few people to complete their software projects on time. With the new TESTCo Latino America, the company hopes to continue the trend of year-over-year growth and unmatched customer service.
"We have the opportunity to build the premier On-Demand Software Testing company in Latin America," says Hotz. "We have been literally overwhelmed with the level of interest that Mexican companies have for increasing their software quality and productivity to drive business and we look forward to servicing those demands."
Known for its ability to streamline the turnaround time for software testing, TESTCo simplifies a burden businesses shouldn’t have to worry about in the midst of keeping afloat during the economic downturn or in times of growth as the economy recovers.
Along with meeting the demand in Latin America, Hotz expects overall growth in the company to continue year-over-year growth while maintaining the staggering statistic of 80% client retention. The On-Demand Software Testing Company prides itself on achieving excellence quickly and maintaining its clients through impeccable customer service.
"We’ve found that growth is directly related to not just finding new clients but in keeping current customers happy. Latin America presents us with a new audience and a new market to grow in and we’ll do so with the same successful business model that continues for us with our partners in India and Eastern Europe," says Hotz.
