  • Well, there are many of our customers who have outsourced their projects to us because of the following reasons:

    Why do they outsource to us?
    • Groundbreaking design & development concepts.
    • Technically & creatively strong developers.
    • High-Quality deliverables.
    • Incredible UI/UX.
    • Well-tested Products.
    • Guaranteed On-time delivery.
    • Flexible approach.
    • Convenient communication channels.
    • Exclusive PMS for time-tracking.

    What prevents them from outsourcing?
    • Fear of business loss.
    • Past bad experience.
    • Time zone issues.
    • Quality disputes with developers.
    • Improper communication.
    • No transparency in working.

    However, a report from Gartner said that "As businesses begin focusing on their core competencies, outsourcing will gain even more traction and emerge as a key growth industry in 2015."

    Hope this makes sense.

  • If you outsource your projects to a freelancer, you might end up doing the task on your own. So always make sure you outsource to a well-established and experienced company from Ukraine or India.
