DeviQA vs Global App Testing

QA Rating is published independently, and its publisher owns no company listed in this catalog.

DeviQA meets the conditions for Embedded team model and Device lab coverage and Automation first and Security focus; Global App Testing meets the conditions for Crowdtesting at scale. The catalog has Frameworks, Published rates, Device lab only for DeviQA, and Client stages, Certificates, Crowd tester pool only for Global App Testing. Neither publishes Signs a BAA / GDPR DPA, Onboarding, so the table cannot answer those.

Who each one fits

DeviQA fits a buyer assembling a dedicated engineering pod for automation-heavy work that also carries a security testing line extending into penetration testing, with case material built around coverage and regression metrics. Global App Testing fits a buyer who wants to route ad hoc, exploratory work through an outside network of testers rather than staff an in-house pod, particularly where the work needs many device and locale combinations checked at once instead of a long engagement.

Signing a BAA or a GDPR data processing agreement, and what onboarding involves once a contract starts, carry no answer on this pair's profiles. A buyer bringing patient records or EU personal data into a project has to settle that point through direct conversation rather than from the published fields, no matter which delivery approach otherwise looks like the fit. Put the request for a data processing agreement in writing before any statement of work is signed. Afterward, weigh that written answer against a published case study naming a client in a regulated sector such as fintech or healthcare, since that case work is the clearest public evidence either vendor currently offers for handling sensitive data.

A tag is attached when the company's published fields meet its condition, never by judgement. Both lists come from the same closed vocabulary, so a tag missing from one side means the condition was not met, not that nobody looked.

Both meet the conditions for Nearshore for the EU, so those conditions do not separate them.

Where the data runs out

Completeness against the 14 fields of the comparison checklist is 79% for DeviQA and 79% for Global App Testing. A field is counted as filled when a source confirms it, so a gap means nobody published it.

Neither company has a value recorded for these fields: Signs a BAA / GDPR DPA, Onboarding. The table shows those rows empty rather than estimating them.

Field definitions and the completeness checklist are on the methodology page. The sources behind each field are listed on the DeviQA profile and the Global App Testing profile.

Questions

What does Global App Testing publish about the crowd it draws on for crowdtesting, and does DeviQA publish anything comparable?
Global App Testing publishes a crowd tester pool of 145,035 people, sourced to its own platform page and checked 2 September 2026. DeviQA's list of engagement models carries no crowdtesting option, so no pool size applies to its profile at all. A buyer weighing device and locale coverage through an outside tester network is comparing a published figure against a service that DeviQA simply does not list among its engagement models.
How does DeviQA's published team size compare to Global App Testing's for a buyer planning to embed a dedicated pod?
DeviQA's profile lists a team size of 201 to 500 people, checked 2 September 2026. Global App Testing's profile lists a team size of 51 to 200 people, checked the same date. A buyer planning to staff an embedded, dedicated pod for the length of an engagement draws from a larger published headcount at DeviQA, and should ask on the first call how many of that headcount are free to allocate to a new account rather than already assigned elsewhere.

Every fact about a company comes from a listed source. A field without a source stays empty. A certificate counts as confirmed only when a registry, certificate or auditor report backs it; a certificate the company only claims about itself is published separately, under that label. Vendors can request a correction at hello@qa-rating.com. A correction is applied when it comes with a public source.
