Best TestGorilla Alternative for Central Asia
Central Asia is one of the clearest examples of a market that global HR tech vendors serve on paper but not in practice. TestGorilla is available there the same way it's available anywhere with an internet connection — but availability isn't the same as being built for a market's languages, budgets, or hiring norms.
The gap in global platforms
Skills-based hiring is a genuine growth area across Central Asia's SMB and tech sectors, but most established assessment platforms are built English-first, priced for Western budgets, and supported on Western business hours. That leaves a real gap for companies trying to hire well without an enterprise-sized HR budget.
Where TheyTest fits
TheyTest already operates across 10+ countries with a base of B2B customers concentrated in Türkiye, Azerbaijan, and the wider Caucasus and Central Asian region — this isn't a new market entry, it's an extension of ground TheyTest already has some footing in.
- Monthly billing, no annual contract — Basic at $119/mo, Pro at $179/mo — instead of TestGorilla's annual-only Core plan at $1,620/yr, which matters for businesses operating on tighter, less predictable budgets.
- A product built for regional hiring realities: video interviews, AI-assisted cheating detection, and a broad test library, without requiring an enterprise-tier upgrade to access them.
- Support and sales conversations that don't assume a Western-market context by default.
Why this matters for growing businesses in the region
A company hiring its first dozen employees needs a tool that works for its budget and its timeline, not a platform designed around enterprise procurement cycles in markets it has never operated in. That mismatch is exactly what pushes regional businesses toward platforms that were actually built with markets like this in mind.
