When many companies develop software, they often hesitate to choose to develop with their own team or to find a professional development company to develop.
The enterprise believes that it will be more in place to control the project with its own team, but it takes a lot of time and energy to form a team. If software development can be outsourced, it will bring more benefits to the enterprise, and more efforts will be made to achieve the core of the enterprise Target.
Next, let’s talk about the benefits of software outsourcing development:
1. Cost
Some companies may think that outsourcing to a development company requires a huge amount of money, but after careful comparison, they will find that outsourcing actually saves more costs than organizing their own team. If you form a self-organized team, first, the salary of the technical staff is not a small expense; second, you need to set up a working space for employees; third, corporate taxation, and in some countries, in response to government policies, employers must provide employees with benefits , is also an additional cost expenditure (for example: Singapore’s CPF policy), these are long-term; fourth, to form an excellent team and find high-quality talents, it is necessary to pay a relatively high salary ;Fifth, after the development of the product is completed, there will be a period of time in which there will be no need for a lot of work, but the company must continue to pay salaries to the members of the self-organized team for subsequent maintenance, which will be the hidden cost behind it. The outsourced team members are all professional development talents with long-term tacit cooperation, and the enterprise does not need to bear additional costs. As long as the enterprise lists clear requirements and expectations, the outsourced software development company can provide professional services.
2. Time
If an enterprise organizes its own team, it will take a long time to find a suitable team, and it will take a period of time for the members to develop a team spirit and tacit understanding before they can start to execute the work. Time has caused companies to miss more business opportunities. With outsourcing development, companies do not need to spend time and energy on training their own teams. As long as the project is established, it can be implemented immediately. In this way, the development cycle is even shorter.
3. Improve quality
The developer’s practical experience is related to the overall fluency of development, so developers with less experience may make more mistakes than developers with more experience. Especially in the early stage of development, if the members of the enterprise’s self-organized team have little cooperation experience and choose the wrong software framework, this will greatly affect the subsequent development process and quality, and may require the entire group to start over again, causing the enterprise Big loss in cost. Compared with the outsourcing team, in addition to the professional background, the members have a lot of outsourcing experience is an advantage. Under the long-term tacit understanding, there is no conflict of ideas among the team members. In terms of development concept, due to the practical experience of cooperating with many cases, they can directly select the suitable framework. Streamline the development time and greatly reduce the occurrence of errors. In this way, more time will be spent to achieve the best quality.
4. Reduce risk
Teamwork is very important in developing software. Even the best talents cannot do it alone. However, at the beginning of the enterprise group, the members are not familiar with each other, and the level is not the same. It still takes time to adjust the communication. If the development is to be completed on schedule, the error rate and risk may be high. Relatively speaking, there is a long-term tacit cooperation between the developers of the outsourcing company. The members have rich experience in development and execution and professional background. They have their own set of standard development and division of labor process, which is not easy to make mistakes in execution, and the risk is also greatly reduced. .
5. After-sale maintenance
After the product is launched, if the company has no further projects to develop, the turnover rate of self-organized team members will increase. As a result, there may be problems in the follow-up maintenance of the product, which will have a great impact on the company. However, if it is developed by an outsourcing company, they have a complete after-sales maintenance plan, which can ensure the stable operation of the online product and solve problems in a timely manner.
In view of the above, if the enterprise chooses to let the outsourcing team develop, it can bring the greatest benefits in the shortest time. In addition to saving the development cost of the entire process and reducing long-term waste of resources, the practical experience of the outsourcing team can also help the overall product development and achieve rapid and accurate results. Enterprises require projects to reduce the chance of error, improve quality and shorten the development cycle, and after-sales maintenance also has its own set of procedures to ensure stable product development. If the enterprise is considering the pros and cons of both, outsourcing team development will be your best choice.
