Recently we have seen a lot of online fraudulent behavior come to surface, especially in the field of outsourcing Java development. Having felt strongly for the issue, below we have enlisted a checklist of criteria which you should follow before you Hire Java developers for your project. Please read ahead to know more:
Freelance versus outsourcing company
One of the major decisions that you have to make in order to opt for secure Offshore Java Development India services is to decide between freelance service providers or for an established offshore service provider. Since we are talking about secure offshore development service, we would like to share our concerns about opting for freelancers. Although we do not intend to put a generalize statement here, but an established offshore development company is far more trustworthy and secure, than opting for freelancers. An established center is reliable simply because you can easily locate them. Besides, they have well laid out plans and processes and hence render justice to the development needs to the project. And now, even if you intend to go with freelancers, do ensure that you have a long standing and trustworthy relationship with the same.
Check the credentials of the development center
Before you opt for the offshore development company or freelancer, it would also do you good to check their credentials. There are certain specific portals and sites which exist only to bring the enterprises and organizations looking for meticulous software and web application development services, closer to the outsourcing companies and service providers. These websites also contain the reviews which the others users have submitted. You may log on to various such websites and learn more about the service provider or the company that is in question. Also, do go through the ratings and testimonials which the company has received and based on that, make a much better informed choice.
Do not make cheap rates the number one factor
While opting for outsource Java and web applications development services providers, there are several factors which one should consider. The set of factors includes - total experience that the company has in providing efficient Java development services, the portfolio / indicators of past success, the technical expertise that the company has, the value added services offered by them and the pricing, etc. Pricing can only be a part of the entire mix and not the most important aspect out of the same. Instead of being overtly conscious about pricing, it is best to just pay a little extra in the beginning, than to regret it at a later stage. The cost of developing Java based web applications is pretty standard in the web world and if a service provider is offering a price which is shockingly lower (or higher) than what the others are offerings, your red flags must go up. Be very wary about the uncanny pricing mix.
Seal the deal with an NDA and always keep a check on the developer
Lastly, a legally binding non disclosure agreement is a must, as this contract gives you the intellectual and proprietary rights about the entire development project. If you intend on to reselling the application, or offering it as a premium service, a NDW is again a must. So, before starting with the development project, sign an NDA with the development company and in the due course of the completion of the project, keep a close eye on the progress of the development, via project reports, regular Skype or phone calls etc.
