SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

An ideal software development outsourcing partner comes with a dynamic industry presence. As someone who has been around, they should have a robust in-house team, a diverse global clientele, an unbeatable portfolio, and some flattering testimonials. They must deliver consistent, scalable, and secure solutions for any browser, OS, or device. To top it all off, they must have a flexible and transparent pricing module.

Are you striving to cut back on software development and support expenses? Then, the thought of outsourcing must have run rampant on your mind. It's only understandable, however, if you have some inhibitions too. But did you know that cost-cutting is not the only direct benefit of outsourcing?

Sure, with a reliable partner, you can easily save up to 40% on costs. The more important thing is, instead of losing control of business operations, you get an opportunity to focus more on core functions that drive revenue! Other benefits include -

• Enhanced scalability
• Greater flexibility
• Improved business continuity
• Access to the latest technology
• Reduced time for development

Is it your first stint with outsourcing? Or did the last round, your partner ruin the experience for you? Either way, we believe you've got this! Start by doing an incessant background dig. Here is a comprehensive questionnaire to help establish trust. Make sure you tick off all the boxes before you proceed with the partnership -

• How do you find, train, and hire developers? Could you give us an overview of their combined skill set?
• What software methodology do your developers use?
• Where is your team located? How do you deal with the challenges of remote functioning?
• How involved will you be in the development process?
• How much visibility will my organization have into the project?
• Do you specialize in any specific industries?
• How do you balance technology with business strategy
• How do you communicate with clients in case of an emergency?
• Do you have any testimonials from previous clients?

Your business website or app is only as good as its ability to run uninterrupted. An extended breakdown can cause you a substantial loss. So, ideally, software support and maintenance are a crucial part of software development outsourcing. It is an important piece of the puzzle; it should come embedded in any end-to-end development package.

One of the prime risks associated with software development outsourcing is business continuity or the lack thereof! What we mean by this is, sometimes due to external factors (like the pandemic), the outsourced project may not take off! To avoid losses, a trustworthy partner will provide you with professional liability insurance to help manage and plan for risk and continuity factors.

The most popular development methodology is Agile; most developers are inclined to stick to it. Some may choose more traditional ones like Waterfall, Prototype Model, Lean Development, and so on. But before delving into the pros and cons of each methodology, one must first consider individual project requirements, project size, and the time required.
