Frequently Asked Questions

What does nearshore mean?
The meaning of nearshore refers to the practice of engaging the services of companies or individuals in nearby or neighboring countries. This strategy takes advantage of geographical proximity, similar time zones, and cultural similarities to enhance collaboration and efficiency, making it a preferred option over offshore alternatives.
What are nearshore teams?

Nearshore teams are made up of professionals located in neighboring or nearby countries who work delivering software services, or as an extension of your in-house team. These teams offer the benefits of close proximity, such as easier communication and similar working hours, while providing high-quality services at more affordable costs than U.S. onshore teams.

What is nearshore development?
Nearshore development is the practice of leveraging software development resources for your software projects that reside in nearby countries. This approach combines the advantages of geographical closeness, cultural affinity, and similar time zones to ensure seamless collaboration, faster turnaround times, and cost-effective solutions.
What is nearshore staffing?
Nearshore staffing refers to working with talent agencies that enable you to hire professionals from nearby countries to fill roles within your organization. This model (also known as nearshore staff augmentation) offers the benefit of having skilled talent in close proximity, which facilitates better communication, similar working hours, and easier management compared to offshore staffing.
What is the difference between offshore and nearshore development?
Offshore development is the practice of outsourcing projects to distant countries, often in different time zones, which can create challenges in communication and coordination. Nearshore development, on the other hand, involves outsourcing to nearby countries with similar time zones and cultural backgrounds, resulting in smoother collaboration, faster response times, and better alignment with your business needs.
How much does a nearshore development team cost?
The cost of a nearshore development team varies depending on factors such as the team's size, skill level, technology stack, and the specific nearshore location. Generally, nearshore development is a cost-effective alternative (40-60% cost savings) to onshore services, providing high-quality work and efficient collaboration.
