KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Best overall for globally distributed teams: Tequipy. Each order is bought inside the new hire's country, in any of 180+, at recommended retail price with shipping in the price. A single trial order where hiring hurts most commits you to nothing.
  • Allwhere suits teams hiring mostly in the US and Canada. It adds a 4% service fee to every transaction on its published price list, and fifteen of the 50 countries on its own service grid are Beta procurement only.
  • Quipteams suits teams hiring mostly in Latin America. It quotes devices at a local market price and publishes no ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certificate.
  • The two share their commercial terms, so decide on coverage and service prices. Ask both for one same-spec laptop, delivered, in the country you hire in most.

Allwhere vs Quipteams is a hard comparison to settle from the sales pages, because both vendors sell on the same promise. Each bills per use, without a contract or a minimum order, so the usual first filter removes neither.

The test usually comes later, when someone leaves. In Capterra's 2022 offboarding survey of 287 HR staff, 71% had seen at least one departing employee keep company equipment. So this guide compares the two where that risk lives: what each charges per service, how each handles support, and which countries each actually serves.

Allwhere's 8 G2 reviews are all incentivized and all from 2023. Quipteams gained 13 of its 32 between July and September 2026, every one rated 4.5 or 5, so read individual reviews before the average. Competitor figures were read in September 2026.

Who Is Allwhere Best For?

Allwhere homepage, the first vendor in this allwhere vs quipteams comparison

Allwhere's help center lists 15 of the 50 countries on its service grid as Beta procurement only, as of September 2026. The company was founded in New York in 2021 and opened a Canadian depot and entity in February 2026. Three kinds of buyer get the most from it.

  • Teams hiring mainly in the US and Canada: Allwhere publishes 4 to 6 business days for new devices there. One enterprise IT reviewer says "Our laptop retrieval numbers have increased by at least 60-70%" in an October 2023 G2 review.
  • Teams that want a price list before a call: the Pricing Guide in its help center gives a fee for each service in each region.
  • Teams already running Jamf, Iru or Intune: all three are named integrations.

The limit appears once the hiring map leaves North America. A sysadmin shortlisting vendors for the US, UK, India and Australia wrote that he was close to choosing Allwhere "despite them lacking true global coverage" (an r/sysadmin comment).

For Whom Is Quipteams Useful?

Quipteams homepage, the second vendor compared here

Nineteen of Quipteams' 32 G2 reviewers sit in Latin America, as G2's region filter showed in September 2026. The company is bootstrapped, small and Latin American by origin, and it sources each device from a reseller inside the destination country.

  • Teams hiring across Latin America: one customer keeps inventory "in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, the United States, among others", per a May 2025 G2 review. An Argentine reviewer calls Quipteams "our trusted vendor for laptops and other devices in Latin America" in a September 2025 Trustpilot review.
  • Teams that want one named person to call: its pricing page promises a dedicated account manager on every account.
  • Teams that buy laptops ahead of start dates: new devices waiting for a hire are stored free, so stock can sit in-country until day one.

Tequipy: An Alternative

Tequipy homepage, a third option beside Allwhere and Quipteams

Before Tequipy existed, its co-founder was Head of IT at Revolut. Headcount there rose from 100 people in 2 offices to 5,000 in 17, and not one laptop went missing. Tequipy turns that process into a service for companies that hire abroad.

  • Recommended retail price: an $1,800 MacBook costs $1,800, with delivery included.
  • Coverage: 600+ authorized resellers fill orders inside 180+ countries, with no cross-border shipping.
  • Published rates: every standard service rate sits on the Tequipy pricing page.
  • Certification: ISO 27001, with penetration test reports on request.
Cost line Allwhere Quipteams Tequipy
Service prices Retrieval $120 (US) to $250 (EU, UK); storage $6 to $8 a month; plus 4% Storage from $35 a month for used devices; retrieval quoted Offboarding $70 to $150; storage $12 a month; sellback free
Platform fee None None $99 a month flat at any fleet size, free for up to 100 devices
Minimum to start None None None

Competitor rows come from each vendor's own price pages as recorded in September 2026. The Quipteams side is broken down line by line in Quipteams pricing explained.

Tequipy pricing calculator estimating a year of device costs

Seven new laptops a year cost a 100-person team $14,560 with Allwhere, before shipping, and $14,000 with Tequipy, delivery included. Neither rival charges per user: Allwhere adds a 4% service fee to each transaction, and Quipteams quotes a local market price per order. Tequipy's platform is free for up to 100 devices, then $99 a month flat at any fleet size. Our pricing calculator puts the team's Tequipy services at $2,856 a year, or $5,244 with the optional $199 a month HRIS sync. Allwhere publishes its service rates too, so price your hires and leavers on both.

Price

Both vendors charge per use, so the real bill is the sum of the service lines. Here they publish very different amounts of detail.

Allwhere Pricing

  • The device passes through at vendor cost: the Pricing Guide adds shipping, tax and "Service Fee: 4% on all transactions".
  • Every core service has a regional price: deployment from a depot costs $75 in the US and $115 in the EU or UK. Retrieval costs $120 and $250. Storage is $6 a month in the US and $8 elsewhere.
  • Crossing a border is expensive: only the US depot ships cross-border, and a retrieval to the US costs $525 from the EU, UK or Australia.
  • Prices move: one customer wrote that "Recent price increases are the cause for some concern" in a February 2023 G2 review.

Allwhere charges no platform fee and asks for no minimum, terms Tequipy offers too.

Quipteams Pricing

  • No platform fee and no setup fee: the same terms Tequipy offers, so neither side wins here.
  • Devices at a local market price: the pricing page now says the price is "in line with what you'd pay locally". An earlier line promising "no intermediary markups" is gone.
  • Storage is the one published service rate: free for new devices waiting to be assigned, and from $35 a device a month for used ones. Retrieval, buyback and repair are quoted per device.
  • Custom quotes can arrive as one total: a project manager asks for "cost breakdowns on custom quotes" in a September 2026 G2 review.

A team using Quipteams across the Americas told us the intermediary adds a per-laptop logistics cost, which it judged worth paying there. Most G2 reviewers call the pricing fair.

Verdict on Price

Allwhere wins on transparency, because a buyer can total a year before talking to anyone. Quipteams wins for a team that stores new stock, which costs nothing there. On used devices, Allwhere's $6 to $8 storage beats Quipteams' $35 by a wide margin.

Pro tip: send both vendors the same three-line test order. Write one laptop model, one destination city and one delivery date. Ask Allwhere for the device cost, shipping, tax and the 4% fee as separate lines. Ask Quipteams for the same lines, which its own reviewer had to request. Then add one retrieval in the same country and compare the two totals, not the headline terms.

Ease of Use

Both platforms handle ordering, tracking and returns from one screen. The difference is how fast a new buyer can get a real answer.

Allwhere Ease of Use

  • A tracking dashboard reviewers like: one helpdesk engineer praises the "dashboard to track orders" and the account rep in a January 2023 G2 review.
  • Kits by role: admins pre-approve equipment by team or region, and employees pick from that list.
  • A retrieval with no sign-up: a one-time return can be ordered without creating an account.

Quipteams Ease of Use

  • A quote request with no login: the guest tool takes a device and a country without an account. Its own text says the team confirms "exact pricing and stock within 24 hours", so it is a request, not an instant price.
  • A rebuilt interface: a support specialist wrote that "the old UI was my main complaint, but most of those issues have been resolved now" in a September 2026 G2 review.

Verdict on Ease of Use

Quipteams is quicker to start, since a quote needs no account. Allwhere is quicker to price, since the numbers are already published.

Customer Support

Support is where both vendors earn most of their praise, and where the gaps show once a fleet grows.

Allwhere Support

  • Slack and email: reviewers on G2 single out fast replies on both channels.
  • US hours elsewhere: in Beta regions, the help center says support runs on EST hours, "so replies may land the next business day".
  • Parallel vendors: some teams run Allwhere beside a second supplier to fill the countries it does not serve. A team running Allwhere next to Deel IT told us Allwhere "can only do part of the job".

Quipteams Support

  • Named people: reviewers praise account managers by first name, and the pricing page promises "A real human, available 24/7".
  • Slower tickets as volume grows: one customer writes that "support tickets can get a little slow sometimes, with you having to check up constantly" in an August 2026 G2 review.
  • A thin Trustpilot record: the profile shows 3.3 from 3 reviews in September 2026. The one 1-star review describes two booked sales meetings that were both canceled, and Quipteams replied that it found no record of the reviewer.

Verdict on Support

Quipteams wins on the relationship, because its account managers are the most praised part of its review base. Allwhere is the safer pick for a team that needs answers during US business hours.

Tequipy shared Slack channel where a customer raises a device request

Tequipy runs a shared Slack channel for every customer instead of a ticket queue. Gigs calls the team "hands-down one of the most responsive and solution-oriented teams I've worked with" in its case study.

Integrations

Integrations decide whether a new hire triggers an order on its own or waits for someone to type it in.

Allwhere Integrations

  • MDM: Jamf, Iru (formerly Kandji) and Microsoft Intune. Iru went live in February 2026.
  • Identity: Okta, Microsoft Entra ID and Google Workspace.
  • HRIS: a marketplace of 150+ connectors, including BambooHR, Workday, ADP and Gusto, plus a Customer API expanded in January 2026.

Quipteams Integrations

  • HRIS: Rippling, Workday, BambooHR, HiBob, Deel, Gusto and Personio, among others, plus a public API.
  • What users confirm: G2's review-based tag lists four tools: Jira Service Management, Okta, Rippling and Slack. The same project manager quoted above asks for "Broader Native Integrations" in her review.

Verdict on Integrations

Allwhere has the deeper MDM list, Quipteams the longer HRIS list. Tequipy syncs with HiBob, BambooHR and Workday for $199 a month and enrolls devices through Apple Business Manager or Windows Autopilot. That is how zero-touch deployment works with Jamf, Intune and Kandji alike.

Coverage and Delivery Speed

Both vendors publish a country count larger than the service they confirm in each country. Each also publishes the detail that shows the gap.

Allwhere Coverage

  • 54 countries listed: none in the Middle East, Africa or Central Asia.
  • The Beta grid: 15 of 50 countries are Beta procurement only, with no retrieval, deployment or storage. Japan is listed as "Coming soon" for every service.
  • Published lead times: new devices take 4 to 6 business days in the US and Canada, and 7 to 10 in the EU, UK, Latin America and Australia.

Quipteams Coverage

  • 155 countries claimed: its coverage page, checked on 1 October 2026, grades 107 as full lifecycle and 44 as everything except buyback. Four more are limited.
  • Speed: Quipteams states a 4 business day average. A retail customer delivering to "Europe, Asia and South America" reports "7-10 days" in a July 2026 G2 review.

Verdict on Coverage

Quipteams covers more of the map on paper and sources locally. Allwhere is faster in North America and slower everywhere it publishes a figure outside it.

RemoFirst runs a team across 30 countries, including Kazakhstan. After moving deliveries, repairs and retrievals to Tequipy, it recorded about $2,000 per employee in prevented losses.

How to Choose a Device Lifecycle Platform

Three checks separate vendors with identical terms, and all three fit into one week.

Ask for the Service Grade in Each of Your Countries

A country on a list is not a country with retrieval. Send each vendor your top five hiring countries and ask which services run there today. Allwhere's grid and Quipteams' coverage page already hold the answer. Tequipy runs the same service set in each of its 180+ countries, with procurement, retrieval, storage and redeployment tracked on one dashboard.

Price One Laptop, Delivered, in Your Hardest Country

Average prices hide the countries that hurt. Ask for one quote where your last order went wrong, and check the delivery route it takes. Booksy tested Tequipy in Latin America first, and its IT director says in the Booksy case study: "They managed it perfectly, which gave us the confidence to start using their services for other geographies as well."

Ask for the Security File Before the Pilot

Neither Allwhere nor Quipteams publishes an ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certificate. Quipteams describes its encryption on its FAQ page, which answers part of a questionnaire. Ask both for their documents before a first order. Tequipy is ISO 27001 certified and shares penetration test reports on request.

Alternative to Both: Tequipy

Key Features

Tequipy handles the physical side of the device lifecycle for teams hiring in several countries. It works beside the MDM and HR systems you already run.

Local Sourcing in the Employee's Country

Orders are filled from stock already in the destination country, through one of 600+ authorized resellers. No laptop crosses a border, so no order waits in customs or picks up duties. Delivery averages 3 business days, and 10 business days is the maximum anywhere. Next-day delivery is available in most of the UK and the US.

Devices That Arrive Enrolled

Each Mac is registered in your Apple Business Manager before dispatch, and each Windows laptop in Autopilot. The device enrolls into your MDM when the employee first turns it on. Automatic enrollment is free with the device. Manual configuration, where a country needs it, is quoted separately.

Returns, Storage and Resale on Any Device

When someone leaves, Tequipy books the courier, then wipes and inspects the laptop before it goes to storage, to a new hire, or to a cash buyback. All of it works on laptops bought elsewhere, so a trial needs no migration. Cycling a stored laptop to a new hire costs about $180 to $240, against $1,500 to $2,500 for a new one. The laptop retrieval service runs in every covered country.

Tequipy Pricing

Item Price
Platform $99 a month flat at any fleet size, free for up to 100 devices
Hardware Recommended retail price, delivery included
MDM and ABM enrollment Free with a device
Offboarding $70 to $150 per device
Storage $12 per device per month
Redeployment $70 to $150 per device
HRIS sync (optional) $199 a month for HiBob, BambooHR or Workday
Sellback 20% to 70% of the original value, paid in cash

Where Tequipy Shines

  • One service set wherever you hire: a leaver in Kazakhstan gets the same return process as one in London, and deliveries have reached a war zone in Ukraine.
  • Retail price, delivered: hardware is benchmarked against the local Apple Store, and the price already includes shipping.
  • A certificate to send: ISO 27001 and penetration test reports go to a security team on the first call.

Where Tequipy Falls Short

  • SOC 2 is not finished. If your vendor review asks for SOC 2 by name, check its status with the team before the questionnaire goes out.
  • There is no approval flow by order value. Any admin can order directly; quotes for internal sign-off are the workaround for now.
  • The review base is small. Four G2 reviews cannot carry an average, so ask for reference calls in your regions.

Tequipy Customer Reviews

Tequipy's four G2 reviews averaged 4.9 out of 5 in October 2026. A mid-market IT manager writes: "I find Tequipy's platform extremely intuitive and simple." That line comes from an August 2026 G2 review.

The published case studies carry more weight. Dimitrios Stergiou, who runs IT and security at TapTap Send, credits "the transparency of their pricing and process" in the TapTap Send case study, written after three purchasing processes became one.

Who Tequipy Is Best For

  • Globally distributed teams of any fleet size: a company with 50 devices in three countries gets the same rates and process as one with 5,000 across fifteen or more.
  • Teams making their first hire outside the home country: the first contract signed where you have no office and no supplier is usually when ordering from home stops working.
  • Teams that want proof before commitment: one order in the hardest country answers the coverage question, as it did for Booksy.

CONCLUSION

What Will You Choose?

Choose Allwhere if most of your hires sit in the US and Canada and you want a price list before a call. Budget for the 4% fee and the EST support hours. Choose Quipteams if Latin America is your main hiring region and nobody yet asks you for a certificate.

If you hire across several regions, or expect to, test one order with the Tequipy team in the country that is hardest for you. The full fields are mapped in Allwhere alternatives and Quipteams alternatives.

FAQ

Can You Use Allwhere and Quipteams at the Same Time?

Yes. Neither asks for a contract, a minimum or exclusivity, so a team can split countries between them. The cost is two portals, two invoices and two support teams, and gaps can remain in countries neither serves fully.

Which Delivers Faster in Europe, Allwhere or Quipteams?

It depends on whose figure you trust. Allwhere publishes 7 to 10 business days for new devices in the EU and UK. Quipteams states a 4 business day global average, while one customer delivering to Europe reports 7 to 10 days.

Which Is Cheaper for Storing Returned Laptops?

Allwhere, on published prices. It charges $6 a month per device in the US and $8 elsewhere, before its 4% fee. Quipteams stores new, unassigned devices free and charges from $35 a month for used ones.

What Does a Laptop Return Cost With Each?

Allwhere publishes it: $120 in the US and $250 in the EU or UK within a region, plus 4%. Quipteams prices each retrieval by country and shares the figure in a quote. Ask both for your countries before comparing.

Which Option Covers the Middle East and Central Asia?

Neither has much proof there. Allwhere lists no country in either region, and no Quipteams reviewer names one. Tequipy sources locally across 180+ countries, and global device procurement reaches Kazakhstan, Georgia and the UAE.
