When to opt for offshore software development

Offshore software development outsourcing can open new opportunities where in-house development falls short.
01
Development costs are high in your home country. You have a limited budget and are seeking a development partner with an optimal quality-price ratio
02
You are in a volatile market. Market demands constantly shift and you need the opportunity to scale your team up and down on demand to adapt to these changes
03
Your in-house capacity is limited. Your internal team is at full capacity and is unable to handle the increasing workload so you’re considering augmenting it
04
You have one-off projects. Temporary projects don’t justify the costs of in-house hiring and are better off being outsourced to offshore software development companies
05
You require specialized skills. You need rare expertise that is currently unavailable in your home country
06
You require 24/7 development. You need to ensure the development happens around the clock but don’t want to hire additional employees and pay night shift differentials

Offshore, nearshore, or onshore development: Which is right for you?

Offshore software development
Outsourcing to a company on a different continent. The most cost-efficient option of the three. Access to a global talent pool. Time zone differences. Language barriers occasionally arise.

Nearshore software development
Outsourcing to a company in a neighboring country. More expensive than offshoring, but with fewer time zone differences and language barriers. The talent pool is limited.

Onshore software development
Outsourcing to a company in your country. No language barriers and minimal to no time zone differences. The talent pool is limited. The most expensive option of the three.

FAQ

What is offshore software development outsourcing?
Offshore software development outsourcing is an outsourcing model in which a business owner outsources their project to a third-party development company, typically one located on another continent (hence the name). For example, if you’re in the US, outsourcing your project to one of the countries in Eastern Europe would be offshoring.

The offshore software development model is quite popular, as it allows businesses to dramatically reduce development costs by hiring software engineers from countries with lower labor costs. Aside from cost efficiency, it offers access to a larger talent pool: for example, if a business owner seeks rare expertise unavailable in their home country or neighboring countries, offshore app development opens access to a larger (and more diverse) pool of IT experts, which can solve this problem.
What is the difference between offshoring, nearshoring, and onshoring?
Offshoring, nearshoring, and onshoring are all outsourcing models that involve delegating projects to third-party development firms. The difference between them lies in the geographical distance of the outsourcing destination. This distance impacts the development cost, communication, and time zone differences.

Let us briefly describe each model so that you better understand the difference:
  • Offshoring is when you outsource your project to a development firm located on another continent. For example, if you’re in the US, hiring developers from Ukraine would be offshoring.
  • Nearshoring is when you delegate product development to a third-party developer from a neighboring country. If you’re in the US, outsourcing your project to Mexico would be nearshoring.
  • Onshoring involves outsourcing your project to a team located in another city of your country, usually one with lower labor costs. For example, if you’re in New York, hiring a team from Portland would be onshoring.
All these approaches have their pros and cons, which should be thoroughly analyzed before making a decision.

As a company with 18 offices around the world, Helpware Tech supports all three models, allowing you to choose the one that best fits your business needs.
Can I face language barriers with offshore software development?
Facing language barriers during offshore development is theoretically possible. However, most IT companies that target international clients have a good command of English, so it’s unlikely.

If you choose Helpware Tech as your offshore web development company, you won’t encounter any communication issues because:
  • We pay attention to the level of English when hiring candidates. All our developers and IT experts possess a B1 level of English or higher.
  • We assign a project manager to every project. They have excellent communication skills and keep our customers updated at each development stage.
  • We provide customers access to a centralized project dashboard with regular progress reports. You always know where your investment goes at any given moment.
We value transparency and clear communication, so you can rest assured that there will be no misunderstandings with our offshore software development team and that your project will be delivered within budget and on time.
What challenges can your offshore software development firm help me overcome?
By choosing us as your offshore software company, you save yourself a world of trouble:
  • Recruiting difficulties. It takes 41 days on average to find a software development engineer (even longer if you require rare expertise). With us, you’ll receive your first CV within 5 days. Once you approve the candidates, they can start working on your project within 10 days or even sooner.
  • Hiring and overhead costs. When hiring in-house, you have to deal with salaries, employee benefit packages (medical coverage, dental insurance, etc.), recruitment services, taxes, and other overhead costs associated with managing full-time staff. Offshore software development with HW.Tech, on the other hand, allows you to avoid all that, saving up to 60% of overhead costs.
  • Limited pool of candidates. Many businesses struggle to find the right expertise in their home countries (especially, when it comes to rare specialties). With HW.Tech, you will have access to 5000+ global tech talents, so you can find the perfect candidates even for the most specialized roles. Whether you need AI, LLM, data science, or other expertise, we have you covered.
How does HW.Tech deal with time zone differences?
As a trusted offshore software development company, we ensure time zone alignment is seamless and efficient. Our team uses a variety of communication tools and strategic planning to minimize the impact of evening and early morning calls on both sides. With 18 offices around the globe and expanding, we can source developers from countries with overlapping working hours to ensure seamless collaboration with your home country. So you don’t need to worry—even though offshoring naturally comes with time zone differences, we can work things out to minimize them.
How do I find the best offshore software development company?
In order to find the top offshore software development company, we recommend taking into account the following factors:
  • Outsourcing destination. The company’s location directly impacts development costs, communication, and time zone alignment. While choosing a country with the lowest labor costs may be tempting, it's important to consider these other critical factors as well. For US companies, some of the most popular outsourcing destinations are Ukraine, India, Brazil, the Philippines, and Romania.
  • Case studies. Dedicate some time to exploring the company’s finished projects. Ideally, it should have experience in developing solutions similar to the one you want to create. Look for real results, client feedback, and any challenges they’ve tackled—it’ll give you a clearer picture of what to expect.
  • Reviews. Check reviews on specialized portals such as Clutch, Capterra, GoodFirms, and the like. This will give you an idea of the company’s reputation and customer satisfaction.
  • Expertise and skillset. Ensure the company has the technical expertise and experience in the specific technologies required for your project (AI, computer vision, LLM, etc.). Check their tech stack and past projects to see if they’ve worked with similar tools before. A team that’s up to date with the latest trends will bring more innovative solutions to the table.
    • We suggest selecting a few candidates and conducting demo calls to get to know them better. That will help you choose the right software offshore provider.
What factors influence the cost of offshore development?
The cost of hiring an offshore software programmer or a development team is influenced by the location of the offshore development team (more specifically, labor costs in their country), developers’ experience, your project’s complexity and scope, technology stack, engagement model, and numerous other factors. If you would like to receive a cost estimate for your project, please feel free to contact us using your preferred communication method. We will get back to you within one business day to answer all of your questions.
Can I trust Helpware Tech with a sensitive project?
Naturally! We will sign an NDA before collaboration, so your project will be legally protected. What’s more, you retain full intellectual property rights to your product after offshore software development. That means you have complete ownership and control over the code, data, and all related assets. We also follow strict security protocols to ensure your sensitive information remains fully protected throughout the development process.
What experts can HW.Tech provide?
With 800+ seasoned software developers and 5000+ tech experts worldwide, we can provide you with any expertise you require:
  • Software developers
  • QA engineers
  • Data science experts
  • Project managers
  • UI/UX designers
  • DevOps engineers
  • Cloud engineers
  • Cybersecurity experts
What if I want to change a developer you provided?
If at some point you decide that a provided developer isn’t the right fit for your project, you can replace them with another expert for free. However, it generally doesn’t happen with us because we provide a free 14-day trial period during which you can assess each developer and confirm whether they align with your requirements. You don’t need to make any payment until the talent is approved. That way, we ensure you’re satisfied and confident in your choice before moving forward with the project.
