A lot of businesses try to ensure successful software development with all the wrong methods – overpaying home based engineers, bringing foreign talent from overseas and outsourcing projects for pennies on the dollar. In our experience, a better solution is hiring smart developers to work remotely on a single project and establishing a communication pipeline with project management. If properly organized, a combination of local management and remote development does not only save money for everybody involved, it is a better way to deliver software products.
