GlobalVision selects DX to drive developer efficiency

GlobalVision develops advanced proofreading software that ensures the accuracy of packaging, labels, and regulatory documentation for regulated industries. In a field where precision is critical, GlobalVision recognized the importance of embedding developer productivity into their culture early.

“We had a strong team and solid systems in place, but we wanted better visibility into where developers were losing time and how we could help them work more effectively,” says Alex Vados, Engineering Manager at GlobalVision.

Before DX, GlobalVision relied on manual reporting tools and anecdotal feedback, making it difficult to confidently identify and focus on the most critical areas. “We wanted a solution that gave developers more control and provided clear, actionable data to improve workflows,” Vados explains.

GlobalVision evaluated several vendors for engineering intelligence, and selected DX because it offered the most comprehensive solution combining developer sentiment data with in-depth metrics on developer workflows. With DX, managers could also get real-time visibility into work progress and blockers. “As a manager, DX gives me a quick, clear view of what’s getting done, what’s blocked, and where we need to focus our efforts,” Vados notes.

Combining their input with system metrics helped teams identify blockers and implement targeted improvements. “With DX, we could show developers that their feedback mattered by addressing pain points like review delays,” Vados shares. “That kind of visibility and responsiveness wasn’t possible before DX. The engagement has been exceptional.

Looking ahead, GlobalVision plans to build on this momentum and continue using DX to empower its developers. “DX makes it easy to create any metric we need, even if it doesn’t come out of the box, and that flexibility is invaluable,” Vados adds.
