Zephyr Partner Solutions

Zephyr Solutions with BDQ

We partner closely with Zephyr for QA and Test Management solutions, offering implementation and training services. BDQ have been working with Zephyr since 2015 before Cloud even existed - we wrote one of the very first training courses for Zephyr! Zephyr’s products are excellent—they have solutions for small test teams but range up to sophisticated enterprise-level testing for the largest enterprises. The latest features on their enterprise product are very strong on automation, dashboarding, and data analytics.

We think that communication and transparency are key to the success of any IT project, and Zephyr’s reporting and analytics provide great support.
