Coder customer spotlight: Kazoo

Kazoo, creators of an employee experience platform for human resources, has adopted a cloud-based development environment called Coder. The company's Director of Infrastructure, Joe Mainwaring, found that the previous onboarding process for new developers was time-consuming and inefficient. After discovering Coder, which allows developers to spin up their own workspaces within minutes, he decided to implement it across the organization. Lead Engineer Ryan Poe reported increased productivity due to the cloud-based solution's ability to handle resource-intensive tasks more efficiently than local development environments. Additionally, Coder has helped Kazoo transition away from a homebrew system for testing feature branches that was difficult to maintain after its creator left the company.
