Regarding the outcomes of working with Zipdev, Frank emphasized the consistency and talent provided, stating, "My experience with Luis, he has been working with us for a while now, I think consistency is one of the big factors: consistent attention to our projects by a talented person and that has helped us in building our culture." The options Haystack considered before Zipdev included outsourcing development, contract workers, and going directly to the Latin American market. Ultimately, they chose Zipdev, citing the convenience of working with a US-based company that has recruiting teams in the region, and a deep understanding of both cultures. Zipdev also successfully addressed their pain points related to recruiting, vetting, and candidate replacement, and quality.
