Customer Spotlight: Qualifi
Qualifi is a cloud-based interviewing platform designed to streamline the recruitment process. It allows recruiters to pre-record interview questions and send them to candidates, enabling asynchronous phone interviews at scale. This approach accelerates the hiring process by eliminating scheduling conflicts and reducing time-to-hire.
As a feature-focused team, Qualifi faced two major obstacles:
- Too much time spent on DevOps - Managing infrastructure was slowing down product development.
- Ballooning Cloud Costs.
Qualifi needed a more cost-effective and efficient way to manage their cloud infrastructure. Their existing setup was leading to high operational costs, excessive time spent on DevOps, and inefficiencies in debugging and deployment.
Cloud Expenses
As Qualifi scaled quickly to meet growing demand, cloud costs were rising fast. They needed a solution that would significantly lower infrastructure costs without sacrificing performance or forcing them to completely overhaul their existing setup.
Time Waste
Second, their team was spending too much time on DevOps instead of focusing on product development. Managing infrastructure, troubleshooting deployments, and maintaining cloud environments were eating into valuable engineering hours, slowing down their ability to build and iterate on their core product.
Uncentralized Solution
Finally, debugging and monitoring inefficiencies were making it difficult to maintain a stable and reliable cloud environment. They needed a centralized solution that simplified observability, allowing them to quickly identify and resolve issues without adding extra complexity to their workflow.
