Work with usWhat Is Software Development Outsourcing?
Essentially, software outsourcing is the process of handing the responsibility of software development to someone outside your company, like a software team. Traditionally, software development outsourcing is divided into three branches: onshoring (outsourcing within your country), nearshoring (outsourcing to a country nearby), and offshoring (outsourcing to a different continent).

The Challenges of Software Development Outsourcing
Having doubts? Find out what obstacles & challenges you may face with software outsourcing and learn how to tackle them with best practices.
Keeping The Control
An understandable threat of software outsourcing vs. in-house developmentis the project slipping through the owner’s fingers. By introducing simple measures, you can minimize the risk.
Make sure your outsourcing company uses agile processes and has transparent communication channels for constant updates, feedback, and guidance. This way, you’ll solve any likely issues before they can compromise the outcomes.
Expectations vs. Reality
The fear behind moving your software development offshoreis often that the outcome won’t meet your goals. Keep those monsters at bay with a clear plan.
Software development companies work closely with their clients to set specific goals for the final product and its features. Thanks to fine-tuned project management and continuous testing, together you’ll achieve the results that you sought after.
Methodology Difference
In-house software development lets you stay inside your comfort zone, use familiar tools and practices, and get things done faster instead of yet another training. But are you sure this is what you want?
One of software outsourcing services’ greatest benefitsis teaming up with companies using modern, efficient methodologies every day. Keep an open mind and look for a middle ground.
Cultural Gap & Communication Issues
The farther you outsource, the bigger the concern that your software development outsourcing partner will feel distant from you at many levels. Look for these green flags when choosing your dedicated software development team:
A high level of English proficiency and a similar cultural circle reduces the risk of misunderstandings along the way. Identify potential friction points and address them early, making sure to establish clear communication patterns and meeting times to stay in sync.
Security Risks
Many projects require confidentiality. Data safety is a delicate matter and should always be handled with caution. Outsourcing your IT services can turn this aspect into a challenge.
Outsourcing providers use non-disclosure agreements to take legal measures against security breaches or violations. They utilize top-notch technologies to share & store sensitive information.

Usually, we start a setup sprint while the design team works on the visual aspect of the product. This is done to bypass potential holdups at a later stage and to cut down on redundant work: the design team has time to work on visuals that developers will base on, while the tech team can set up the necessary environment and infrastructure. At this point, we will also meet you for the first refinement and agree on the technical scope for the product.
Outcome: the visual side of the product’s core + the environment ready for future development.

How can outsourcing software development reach my goals?
Find answers to the most commonly asked questions before deciding to pick a software outsourcing partner:
Essentially, software development outsourcing is a service allowing you to work with an experienced team of software developers, product designers, and QAs much faster when compared to employing an in-house team.
Due to differences in prices around the world, outsourcing might also be cheaper than an in-house team. Popular companies often choose this model to deal with rapid growth and to reach their goals with best price to value ratio.
Outsourcing allows you to start the development of your product faster, as you don’t have to rely on the talent pool of your local market. Software development companies often have a track record of projects similar to yours. Thanks to robust development process, they are able to deliver results faster in comparison to building your own IT team.
However, you should pay attention to choosing the right outsourcing partner that will understand your vision and has a similar culture. Those factors might be crucial for the success of your project.
The key difference is the client’s involvement and the share of responsibility.
If your vision is very clear and precise, and you don’t want to be involved in the development process, then you should go with project-based outsourcing where the entire responsibility is on the vendor’s side.
In this case you should pick a “dedicated team” outsourcing model, which gives you the chance to be a part of the development team as the Product Owner.
Our Project Manager will guide you through the entire life cycle of developing your software product.
We have a track record of successful projects in outsourcing. Thanks to our transparent processes and assistance, our clients have managed to reach their goals.
Saying that you can’t sucessfully outsource if you don’t have any previous experience with it is just a software development outsourcing myth.
The cost of software development outsourcing will depend on the chosen pricing model. Products built in project-based outsourcing model tend to be up to 30% more expansive than those created in the time&materials model, where you pay exactly for the work done.
The price will also vary based upon the complexity of the project and the size of the software development team needed to materialize your vision.
