What To Look For In A Vietnam IT Outsourcing Companies?
Technical expertise
Technical expertise is, after all, the core of any IT outsourcing project. Setting all other factors aside, the outsourced team has to be first things first qualified to handle given projects. Skill sets, competency in the latest technologies, certifications, etc. undoubtedly need to be taken into consideration.
Relevant experience and domain knowledge
Experience is the second most important factor when weighing up Vietnam IT outsourcing companies. If the chosen company has little to no experience, even with extensive technical experience, the project will have no procedures to follow and unexpected issues stand little chance of being tackled efficiently.It should also be noted that there should be a good match between Vietnam IT outsourcing companies’ experience and customers’ business needs. When the company thoroughly understands the customer’s industry, the collaboration is likely to deliver better results as the outsourced team would (1) be able to support further and advise on what is best for the customer and (2) have developed niche skills relevant to given requirements.Testimonials, previous clients’ reviews, and case studies are some of the reliable approaches to checking on a company’s experience.
Data security
It can never be too cautious with data security when it comes to IT outsourcing. The customer would somewhere along the project have to share sensitive information with the outsourcing company. It would be best, therefore, that the chosen company is aware of the information privacy and guarantees no data leak will take place. Should there be various candidates that need to be shortlisted, privacy certifications can be a criterion to take into account.
Customization
There is no one-size-fits-all solution, whatever the problem might be. An IT outsourcing company that offers custom-made services will hence be a potential partner. Integration with other systems, scalability, and business expansion always prove a plus point in this case.
Agile process and flexibility
Today’s market fluctuates greatly with tons of always-changing requirements every day. An ITO company that follows an agile development process can quickly adapt to the market’s demand and therefore accommodate more efficient deliveries. Agile methodologies provide a highly collaborative environment and give quick results.Flexibility is also necessary when it comes to choosing an ITO company. The chosen partner should be flexible enough to respond to urgent requirements or spontaneous issues.
