Why do so many companies in Europe, North America, Australia, and other industrialized parts of the world turn to India as an outsourcing destination?
Young, talented software engineers are plentiful in the world’s most populous nation, and Coursera’s Global Skills Report found that Indian engineers excel in cloud computing and other cutting-edge technologies.
Combined with the lower costs of tech labor, it’s easy to see why companies in the USA and other places are tapping into Indian offshore software development to fulfill many of their tech-related business needs.
Of course, hiring IT companies overseas comes with a few risks. One way to mitigate risk is through proper selection, so we’ve put together this list of some of the best software development firms in India.
You’ll still need to do your due diligence before hiring any software development outsourcing partner, but this list is a good place to start if you want to save money and tap into one of the most impressive talent pools in the world to power your design and development efforts.

Pros and Cons of Outsourcing Software Development to India
There are pros and cons to outsourcing, just like every business decision. We want to give you a
realistic understanding of both the advantages and possible disadvantages to working with Indian
software development outsourcing firms.
Keep in mind that you can address all the cons by properly vetting any potential offshore or
nearshore outsourcing partners. With this in mind, begin your search with some of the firms on
this list, and don’t be afraid to have a frank conversation with any potential vendor regarding
your concerns.
Selection is one of the most important factors in outsourcing success, so choose wisely!
One thing to note about the time zone challenges is that some firms are willing to adapt their hours to synchronize with your internal staff.
We’ve done that with many clients here at Net Solutions, including Soaq (click to read their success
story). Other clients preferred to work asynchronously, such as Kitco, who hired us for QA
testing so their in-house engineers would wake up to full bug reports the next day.
Again, all of these cons can be addressed through careful vetting and asking outsourcing firms the right questions. Yes, start by reaching out to the top software development firms on this list, but follow up with challenging questions, clear project requirements, and solid contracts (including NDAs).
Keep in mind as well that while keeping outsourcing costs manageable is important, price shouldn’t be your only criterion. If you skimp on quality to save money, it may end up costing you in the end, due to downtime, poor performance, and lost business.
