Challenges and Benefits of Offshore Software Development

Have you ever heard about Offshore Software Development? And, are you eager to know what Offshore Software Development can do to your business? Let’s dive into the same for more information and details.

Offshore Software Development

(OSD) is a business process where a company takes up various services from another software development company which acts as service provider but this service provider company in this particular situation is located in another country i.e. on foreign land. In today’s scenario, OSD is a rapidly growing sector which deals in niche market.

Presently, IT software development companies are ruling the OSD market. The prominent offshore software development has a wide spectrum which varies from building basic code to highly exclusive & customize software development. Not only OSD provides software development but also offers reliable support & maintenance services for the developed software.

The concept of OSD brings several crucial questions to one’s mind & these are also the real challenges while dealing with them.

  • Does the physical distance between the client and the OSD company will influence cost-effectiveness of the software?
  • Does the possible difference in time zone will create any harm in work efficiency or quality?
  • Is the client’s OSD coordinator reliable in keeping the proprietary knowledge safe?
  • Does OSD brings risks to the business?

One would always expect excellence nothing else, and excellence can solely be measured on the basis of the end product quality and this can be simply achievable through owning an expertise Team. So, client’s prime objective is to get the best software developed by the best of the exceptional industry professionals.

In offshore development methodology, the Team which is developing the software is located abroad, so the tangible distance between the two parties is higher making the two parties miles away from each other. Even if you hire the best Team, then also the most important thing is the communication process involved in the project. Building a new software requires high level of interactions within the offshore and onshore Team, so that one can share multiple, miscellaneous ideas and concepts with each other in a flawless fashion. In turn, proper communication will ensure the easy grasp of the project by whole Team (Onshore and Offshore).

In OSD model, the client needs to invest from their resources on the process of initial project training. This training is necessary because service providers needs to understand the project details with respect to client’s existing architecture & system.

On the other hand, latest trend clearly depicts that OSD is the one of the rapidly growing sector. So why companies are moving towards OSD, if there are so many challenges already known?

To answer this, firstly one should know the various key advantages of OSD solutions. You get the privilege to acquire highly skilled talented professionals under one roof with bigger time window to work on the project. This increases your overall productivity of the project with onshore and offshore as the Team is working around the clock.

One can completely lower the operational cost and also can save on technology and infrastructure.

Once you delegate the work to reliable resource you can have your in-house Team to focus on bigger picture like faster growth of the organisation through application of strategic decisions. Not only this, you can also increase your footprint on other countries.
