Texas-based mid-market PEO peer to G&A
Our take
Questco is a credible Texas mid-market alternative to G&A Partners for buyers in Houston, DFW, Austin, and San Antonio. They typically come in at competitive pricing and the Texas local relationships are real. The ESAC gap is worth flagging: if your CFO or auditor specifically asks about ESAC, G&A or another ESAC-accredited option may be the better recommendation.
