They are usually delivering better results in a shorter time frame. Which is beneficial for the client. Let’s elaborate on what exactly offshore development is. And why it has become the best cutting cost option for business owners in eCommerce website services niche across the world.
Offshore Development Cooperation
Offshore development – is a process of hiring outside of the country expert company to solve your existing business problems i.e. if you want to create an e-commerce website but don’t want to be charged an arm and a leg for local company services. There’re a bunch of cost-saving countries to choose from such as the Philippines, India, Ukraine and much more.
The offshore development model is used not only for website development services but also for multiple purposes. List of the most common ones:
- Website development
- eCommerce development

Onshore Development Cooperation
As mentioned before this might be a beneficial option as well. Hiring local companies gives you the convenience of the same time zone. It enables an easy way to meet face to face and not dealing with cultural differences.
Basically, the price is the main difference between onshore and offshore development. The expenses will be much higher to use a local development company in the US, UK or Australia compared to previously mentioned countries.
Final conclusion
It really depends on what type of budget is available to be invested. Just because you work with an onshore or local partner doesn’t mean that you will be happier or by any means your experience will be better. If money is not an issue and you have a true need for someone to understand your local culture, then the onshore development model is what you need to go for. If you don’t have a huge budget and being local is not a must, then the offshore development model is the right choice for you.
