Why not to go Offshore

In the last decade, QA and testing have been pulled into the growing trend of globalization. We can see a considerable rise in the offshore services to areas such as Eastern Europe and India.
The goal of offshore testing is to reduce the project cost by employing cheaper resources. However, this approach introduces significant complexities and difficulties to the development process creating an unforeseen burden. According to an independent 2007 study conducted by Forrester Research, almost 40% of the companies involved with offshore IT are dissatisfied.
Issues of offshore solutions

• Higher than expected management attention
• Cultural and language gaps fostering communication problems
• Lack of personnel stability
• Inadequate personnel quality and compatibility
• Time zone differences
• Geographically distant
• Immature processes

As a result, projects are seeing an increase in cost by as much as 30% per quarter.
