It is a common and effective form of cooperation between companies from different parts of the world.

Why Outsource Software Development to Eastern Europe
Large IT talent pool
An Eastern European offshore development company has a lot of skilled professionals to choose from. For instance, there are more than 900 thousand engineers and ICT specialists in Poland, Romania, Ukraine, and Georgia, and the labor market grows by 20% annually.
Cost-effective relationships
In Eastern Europe, hiring a skillful developer may cost you less than in other regions. According to our research, the average hourly rates for such professionals there are roughly 30-40% lower than in Western Europe, US or Canada.
Time difference
Outsourcing hubs like India and Southeast Asia have a large time difference with North America. It may hinder cooperation. Eastern Europe has up to 4h overlap with North America and may work in the same time zone as Western Europe.
Profound data security
As well as other Eastern European companies, we follow logical, physical security, and data protection security policies to safeguard the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of the customers’ data.
Similar mindsets
Being a part of the Western Culture, Eastern Europe has a lot in common with Western Europe or North America. Offshore development companies in the region employ the best business practices of their western counterparts.
Good command of English
The EF English Proficiency Index 2021 report ranks the population of Eastern European countries as ‘moderately’ or ‘highly’ proficient in this language. The developers from this region are proficient English speakers, so no language barrier will hinder your communication.
