Thankful for our Community and our Clients

The oven is blasting out heat. The smell of turkey fills the house. Faint sounds of football can be heard downstairs, drowned out by third-cousins arguing over politics. These familiar sensations can mean only one thing: Thanksgiving is upon us.

Applause has a lot to be thankful for this year. We were recently named a leader in crowdtesting by NelsonHall, and ranked as one of the fastest growing companies in North America by Deloitte. We also put together our first ever user conference, DigitalXChange ’17, which was a resounding success.

Still, there are two things that stick out to all of Applause when thinking about what we are most thankful for: our community and our clients.

Applause has the crowdtesting category’s largest community. With more than 300,000 people using more than 2.4 million devices in all corners of the globe, our community works every day to make software humanly possible.

Our testers are experts in a variety of testing fields. Seasoned QA professionals, digital natives, usability experts, and security specialists all combine to make our community the most professional and well-vetted crowdtesting unit in the world.

Our community enables us to deliver the best product possible to our clients.

We work with some of the world’s biggest and most recognizable brands. Companies like Google, Walmart, eBay, Uber, Ford, and PayPal all trust Applause to help deliver seamless user experiences across both the physical and digital planes.

At our recent DigitalXChange user conference, many of these brands showed up to hear about our latest announcements, and learn how other clients leverage Applause throughout a variety of industries. Some even presented at the event.

To all our clients and community, we say thank you and happy Thanksgiving!
