Good Filipino developers at affordable rates

We had always thought of Philippines as place for call centers and back office operations, not software development. We actually have relationship with a few local BPOs, however, when inquired about software engineers, profiles they shared were very low quality, so our Tech team decided to push though.
Working with Angat team was actually surprisingly good.
They are a start-up, so they actually deliver twice as good output for the same price as other people. We had to interview 7 candidates to hire 3 devs, as two of them were not as good, while rest were just fine. Time to hire was actually quick, since their team already pre-vetted all the candidates themselves for both technical and soft skills.
With a bit of fine tuning, these guys are capable of providing really high quality service which will help many businesses who struggle to find quality Tech talent in their country.

Positively impressed with our remote Tech Hub

With teams in Amsterdam and Barcelona, we knew that we did not want to outsource, but keep all tech in-house. However, as getting Tech talent in Europe is each time more difficult, we decided to give a try to hiring people in Asia. We talked to a few agencies in India, Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia, but we decided to work with Philippines given that they were easiest to communicate with, despite slightly larger time difference.

The founders are actually from Europe, which made us feel more confident about their ability to execute according to our Dutch standards.

We also wanted to make sure that our hires have proper working conditions, which was very specified since their beginning, as Angat's facilities seem to be at par with Tech companies offices.
Our remote Tech team currently has 3 people, they are working well, so really happy about it, actually planning to visit them in a couple of months.

Angat is your go-to for remote developer teams

I've collaborated with developers in distributed locations on various occasions over the years. What Angat provides is undoubtedly the most remarkable experience working with remote teams by a mile - both in terms of price-for-value and ease of communication.

Quality tech team from Philippines

Based in Korea, our teams are based in Seoul, LA and London. We were considering to grow our Tech team via a remote Tech hub somewhere in SE Asia to be able to scale our Tech faster, and decided to go for Philippines since has best English speaking professionals.
On technical side, Angat provided us profiles of people which matched 100% requirements (Ruby on Rails with ReactJS), so we hired 3 out of the 5 candidates presented. Having reliable partners on the ground made us feel confident that scaling our Tech team in the Philippines is something we can comfortable about.

Stable, high quality tech hire with good customer service.

We are a VC, and most of our invested companies have problems with scaling because of tech talent shortage. Through a referral, we got to know Angat. They appeared to be very keen to help. After evaluating how the process works, we found that their tech talents are stable and high quality and their pricing is very transparent.

We went ahead and introduced them to a few of our portfolio companies. In less than one month, the needs of two portfolios are met - founders mentioned that the tech hires commented high on the environment and community, and it seems like the developers are more collaborative than freelancers.

The only thing is that Angat is limited to the Philippines right now... They did, however, offer high-quality programmers and take very good care of them for the companies. Guess this is the value proposition they offered. Besides which, they have been so supportive and proactive that they even gave free workshops to our portfolios on tech management.

I hope they will keep on having such good service after they scale up. Good luck, Angat. Hope to see more success from you.

Highly recommended!

Angat is a great option if you need to scale up your engineering capacity or if you are looking to deploy your entire development in the Philippines. You do not have to worry about hiring developers or the operational burden of setting up a company there.

We are extremely satisfied with the entire experience end to end. Communication is easy as Filipinos speak excellent English and delivery is on point. Working with Angat has been extremely beneficial to our company and we do not regret our decision to develop in the Philippines!

Start-up which delivers quality service

I met the two co-founders a year back in Singapore. Our company usually works with tech teams either in Malaysia or India, however we decided to give Philippines a try.

We liked their pricing model, since we know how much is each team member is paid and we can clearly project our cost structure.
Within a few days, they provided us with many profiles with JavaScript experience, some were good, some not so much, so we hired only 3 of them. Our Philippines team works well together as they are located in the same room, while communication is easy, since Filipinos speak best English in Asia. Time difference is very easy to manage and we even flew them to our HQ for a couple of weeks.

Overall, good service with a strong team that actually delivers on what they promise. Quality is key, but, otherwise, keep up with the great work!

Easy way to set up a remote tech team

We were looking into setting up a team from Philippines, since we found a few good engineers here. They were working for us as freelancers, but to make them more productive and more sustainable for us, we decided to set-up an office there.
When we saw the list of 10+ business permits required to operate in the Philippines, we were like "Maybe we should re-consider this"
But, then, while in Manila, I met Daniel from Angat, who mentioned to us that they run the office for us and hire and source more people.
We asked them for one additional Swift developer for our Mobile team. They gave us two very good profiles (people on their platform are pre-vetted), he passed our interviews, so we hired him.
As we were happy with them, we asked them to place our who team in one room, while working under their umbrella, which made our freelancers happy, since they got all full time contracts, with local taxes paid, benefits, etc. They also run cool events from time to time, so our Filipino team is really happy!

Exceeded expectations!

Working with Angat team was absolutely delightful! The team exceeded my expectations by delivering exceptional results in timely manner. I am particularly satisfied with the communication flow during the process, which is normally struggling point when it comes to remote projects. Without any doubt I would contact Angat once I have the need in external tech team again.
