When done correctly, offshore development provides many benefits. Software can be built, tested and maintained cost effectively. Resources can be quickly added and shifted between projects. Even small and midsize companies can often afford to maintain multiple development and QA pipelines allowing them to bring their products and services to market with unprecedented speed. Unfortunately, traditional outsource models often fail to deliver on these promises, especially when it's a company's first foray into the world of offshore development. Failed attempts can be very costly. Ikayzo can ensure you get it right the first time. How do we do this? Put simply, we've done this before, and learned a lot of important lessons along the way. A few key points include:
- Use a core team of professionals experienced in offshore development.
- Work only with proven outsource partners.
- Hand pick all your offshore resources using a proven interview and test process.
- Ensure you pay as much attention to architecture, testing, and maintenance as you do development.
- Do not accept any concessions in quality. Offshore development should allow you to improve quality.
- Pay a little over market rate for your people. This will actually save you money (remember: one great engineer is worth ten average engineers)
- Whenever possible, rotate people between your offices. Avoid the "us and them" syndrome.
- Maintain full control over the process from end to end.

Localization is more than translation. When localizing a website, web application, or desktop system you must consider everything from local preferences for colors and layouts to functional concerns, such as payment systems which vary widely from country to country. Our developers and consultants have experience dealing with localization of websites and applications to locales including the US, Spain, France, Japan, Korea, and China. All our translators are native speakers with industry experience.
Internationalization is the process of making a software system, website, or even an entire organization "localization ready". A properly internationalized system can be adapted to new locales with minimal effort. Call our internationalization experts to setup an assessment and receive a free quote for your system.
