Afterward, we offer the most suitable cooperation model, finalize the budget, and agree on the deadlines. Then, Binary Studio provides the required engineers for your project, supplying them with all the necessary equipment and an office space for comfortable work. They work as a dedicated team or extend your in-house engineering capabilities.

Does custom offshore software development cut engineering expenses?

Yes, offshore software engineering is usually cheaper than in-house and nearshore development for several reasons: you hire developers in a remote location with lower hourly rates; you spend less on recruitment services since an offshore software development firm has a large talent pool; you save on administrative and HR expenses as the team works remotely.

How much time does it take to start a project?

The time we need to start a project depends on its complexity and the number of engineers we staff. On average, it takes us 3 to 6 weeks to analyze your requirements, plan the software development process, provide you with suitable tech talents, and onboard them.

The dedicated team model implies that we assemble a separate remote team of engineers, designers, testers, and other tech experts, and they are fully focused on your project.

How do you ensure IP rights protection?

We sign an NDA agreement before you share any confidential information and train every team member on data security practices. Once we complete the specified engineering tasks, you will get the full scope of intellectual property rights on the developed software.

Benefits of hiring an offshore app development company

Access to top engineers

When hiring remotely, you can find Senior-level specialists with decades of experience more effortlessly. While in the US and Western European markets, FAANG companies take the best talents, remote destinations provide them for outsourcing.
Cost-efficiency

Lower hourly rates are one of the main drivers and business benefits of software engineering outsourcing. Engineering costs in locations like Eastern Europe are 30-50% lower than in the US, which considerably optimizes engineering budgets.
Faster time-to-market

Outsourcing to an offshore development center increases your engineering capabilities and allows you to release the product faster. You can also quickly implement critical changes upon the release with external help.
Ultimate flexibility

Offshore development companies have both large internal teams and well-established recruitment pipelines to hire tech talents quickly. You can also downsize your team without legal or employment complexities related to hiring internally.
Enhanced risk management

By diversifying resources geographically, you minimize the risks related to local market fluctuations, which become more frequent as the world goes through a period of unrest. It ensures business continuity and higher stability.
Access to innovations

Implementing innovations gets easier when you have a reliable engineering partner who can provide you with rare tech talents. Offshore software development is a fast lane for AI, machine learning, blockchain, and IoT adoption.
