“The strategic innovation of the topcoder community enabled us to go hard and go fast out-of-the-gate, executing our vision to simplify and enhance everyday experiences on a modest budget. The quality of work was top notch and everything that was promised was delivered, if not exceeded,” said Lee Odess, general manager of Brivo Labs. “As we look to expand our business, the crowdsourcing model will allow us to scale quickly and produce more applications that ultimately improve our customers’ quality of life.”

“TopCoder surpassed expectations: a two-week competition led to code that was just as good but almost three orders of magnitude faster for a few thousand dollars. Hard to imagine beating that.”

“Our Product Testing solution empowers brands with an interactive environment to get product feedback quickly from a cross-segment of testers. The work that TopCoder completed in three months was equivalent to approximately 15 full time developers, and the community delivered a platform at nearly half of the estimated cost.”

“We needed to have a single place to collect data on all of the people that support us. We need to make sure all of our donor records are centralized into a single repository in our Salesforce app. We're finally at a point with the cloud technologies—with the way they're all designed—where we can have fully integrated systems and still have a single record per customer. Nothing upsets people who support nonprofits more than seeing us waste money on sending them multiple mailings or emails. Having a single record per constituent is critical. [TopCoder] provided a way for JDRF to create the support application quickly and at a lower cost.”

“I came away from this project very impressed with the TopCoder Platform. The contests produced high-quality deliverables and the project was run efficiently and professionally. Where other vendors might have resisted the frequent changes to scope and requirements that we endured on this project, the TopCoder members and methodology were able to embrace change and deliver the final solution we really needed.”

“The new codebase is cleanly written and we can modify it to best fit into our new pipelines for proton relatively easily. Delicato was easy to work with and his documentation on his method was first rate and very helpful.”
