Nowadays, Russia is increasingly considered one of the most attractive outsourcing destinations. SAP, Microsoft, IBM, Google, Boeing, Motorola, Reuters and IBM are only a few of the many global companies that employ local engineers and set up development centers in Russia. eWEEK named the Russian outsourcing industry as one gaining maturity and showing promise. The Indian outsourcing industry has to watch out, Business Line warns. Russia attracts technology outsourcing buyers, global companies and start-ups for a number of reasons.
The most substantial reason is a wide pool of talent with a high level of proficiency in diverse realms. “High-level thinking, strong English skills among key staff and executives, and a desire to break new ground on leading-edge projects are intrinsic to the Russian developers," says the eWEEK columnist Stan Gibson. This benefit is successfully combined with the lower cost and attrition rate that Russia offers.
There are also secondary factors that influence tech directors’ decision to outsource software development projects to Russia. Among them is cultural affinity of Russians with Americans and Europeans, the individual approach of Russian companies toward clients, the creativity and collaborative thinking of Russian developers, the Russian government’s new positive attitude toward offshore software development.
These factors can greatly influence your choice of where to assemble your offshore software development team. To make your choice easier, here, in our blog, we will publish a series of posts casting light on the reasons for outsourcing to Russia.
