Please describe your company and your position there.
I am CTO at a fashion e-commerce project. We offer discounted fashion items to our clients similar to outlets but online.
For what projects/services did your company hire CoreQ?
We started having app downtimes as the traffic went up and we decided to move to cluster. We hired Coreq for that.
What were your goals for this project?
Obviously we wanted to increase app availability and reliability and be able to scale as we grow.
How did you select this vendor?
They reached out to me when I opened the position and offered to interview their developer. I was happy with the results but hesitant about outsourcing the job. But I didn't find same quality guys for competitive price for onsite and selected Coreq.
Describe the project in detail.
We had a series of discovery meetings to discuss our goals. After that they proposed the solution. We finalized scope, team and budget. After that we had weekly or bi-weekly calls to discuss the progress and prioritize the needs. We had some delays on my side but they were understanding and we sucessfully finished the project.
What was the team composition?
I communicated with Lead Dev on the project.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
They redesigned the whole architecture and set up Kubernetes cluster after transforming monolithic components into microservices. They set up continuous integration aswell.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
I liked it. I didn't have to project manage them, they didn't just do tasks but they designed the solution.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
They are a self-directed team, and that saved me lots of time and effort. Also when their junior didn't know how to do something they didn't bill me for senior guy that helped him.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Not at this time.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I’m the CTO for a marketplace for automotive sales.
For what projects/services did your company hire CoreQ?
We decided to move from bare-metal servers to a cloud cluster. Since no one in the company had relevant experience, we chose to partner with CoreQ.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to improve reliability and achieve 99.99% uptime.
How did you select this vendor?
They actually reached out to us. We also talked to some other teams, but finally decided to work with CoreQ.
Describe the project in detail.
After we prepared and approved the technical task, CoreQ started working on the project. We established several milestones and had ongoing status checks, but we didn't have to dig much into their work, which I appreciate.
What was the team composition?
We communicated with their business development manager and CTO, who was also the leader of the project team. The team included two more junior teammates who we never spoke with.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
We successfully achieved a service level agreement (SLA) of 99.99% uptime, which was the main goal of the project.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
CoreQ managed the project smoothly. The team was open to communicating mostly by chat, which worked well for me.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
CoreQ did their job well and on time—a rarity in the IT field.
Are there any areas for improvement?
No, I can’t think of any areas for improvement right now.

the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I'm the owner of Ukrainian tour operator
For what projects/services did your company hire CoreQ?
We needed to optimize web platform for high availability, automate deployment and dockerize services.
What were your goals for this project?
We did this mainly to adapt web platform for high availability and make easier for the developers to further improve it.
How did you select this vendor?
We evaluated several companies and liked this company the most during negotiations.
Describe the project in detail.
Before we signed the docs they auditied our infrastructure and proposed the roadmap. Our dev team agreed and later CoreQ team implemented that roadmap. In a few words, they integrated CloudFlare, built GitLab CI/CD, dockerized services with Kubernetes, and implemented autoscaling.
What was the team composition?
Lead DevOps and one more DevOps Engineer
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Out uptime improved significantly and dev team is much comfortable with doing releases. So I believe for such a short project that’s a really valuable result.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
I wasn’t the person personally responsible for communication, but looks like everything was OK.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
They were always responsive, even during non-business hours. And they helped us A LOT when our mail server unexpectedly shut down.
Are there any areas for improvement?
It was a bit hard for a non-tech person to understand the details. But I guess that would be hard with any company.
The vendor successfully met stakeholders’ requirements. Coreq was an accommodating group that adapted to timeline changes. They took an accountable, fair approach to the partnership.
