Outsourcing instead of having in-house software developers is, more than anything, a business choice. It helps you solve issues regarding time, money and skills. If it is well-organized, it can provide you with easy access to talented developers and hire good professionals at reasonable costs. But, like any business endeavor, first, you need to find the right partner.
What does “the right partnership” looks like? There are many different things, like for instance, we’re thinking that it looks like money, professionalism, and work ethics. Albania’s market can give you all that and more. So, let’s have a quick look at what this country in the middle of Europe, has to offer.
GREAT LOCATION
Remote working turns communication within teams into a real challenge. That is why you have to make sure you’re outsourcing developers from countries that share acceptable time differences with you.
Albania is situated in the southeast of Europe and is only a couple of hours away by flight from any country in Europe, Britain, and Israel. The country shares the same or similar time zones with these areas. The difference in time with the USA is approximately 6-9 hours. So, with this reasonable difference in time and proper remote team management, you can have full control over the implementation of the project.
A GROWING MARKET
There is a significant rise in software companies in the last years with several of them expanding internationally. The market is opening to foreign opportunities and it’s pushing more and more young Albanians to pursue a career in software engineering.
SIMILAR WORK ETHICS
Regardless of certain cultural differences, the country is in the center of Europe and has close ties with the United States. So, Albanians, especially those working in the software development industry are very familiar with western work ethics.
Companies in Albania organize their daily tasks and manage their time and work relations the same way as any company situated in the west, making any kind of collaboration move on flawlessly.
EXCELLENT ENGLISH
Communication, the number one requirement of working with an outsourced remote team, is based on speaking a common language. Thankfully, young people in Albania, especially those into software and coding, due to their professional training, are usually fluent in English. This way there are no language barriers, and you can easily speak with your team and understand them.
BEST VALUE FOR MONEY
Everyone wants to hire the best developers, however not all companies can afford to do so. Outsourcing comes as the solution, although a good entrepreneur knows that outsourcing is not about hiring the cheapest developers. Outsourcing it’s about hiring the best with the money you have.
Like many western countries in Albania, you can find highly qualified professionals, but unlike other countries in the west, outsourcing in Albania can be profitable and inexpensive. Here you can find developers that offer top services at favorable prices.
