<< Presentation purpose
Why should I not go with larger name brand companies?
Fair question.
You want the team that you are working with to pay full attention to you, don’t you? Larger name brand companies are more concerned about their brands and the top 20 clients, we are more concerned about you.
For many larger companies, the smaller projects are just training grounds for their employees. You don’t want your mission critical project to be a training ground for others, do you?
We will make sure that you get the kind of involvement that you expect for the investment that you make. Every member of our team, from the CEO to the very bottom is available anytime to take care of your concerns. It would be difficult to get that from a large name brand company, wouldn’t it?

What will happen to my IP?
We are as concerned, if not more, as you are about your IP. We understand what importance your IP carries
Rest assured we employ all tools at our disposal to take care of your IP. We agree to signing NDAs and other agreements to make sure that your IP that is most important to you, stays yours.
We will be happy to engage with you to find out what makes you most comfortable with your IP.

Does your team speak English?
Yes.
Each member of our team speaks, understands and writes fluent English.
English is the language of instruction and increasingly everyday communication in India. Most are taught English as their primary language since grade 1 of school. All technical education is in English.

What if there is an urgent issue in the middle of the day in the US and the team in India is not available?

That is why there will always be a US based person willing to assist you in such situations. If need be we can contact someone from the team in India to resolve critical situations.
We will do all we can to enable your business run smoothly.

Can someone be available in the US on short notice to work with me?

<< Outsourcing FAQs
Is it inconvenient and expensive to call India?
Not at all.
Rates to India are about 5 cents a minute. But we don’t want you to spend even that much. We have multiple VoIP lines with US numbers set up in all our offices. That enables you to call India without incurring long distance charges.
And you have tools like Skype and Gtalk to help you eliminate communication costs.

<< Outsourcing FAQs
Will the developers be working on other projects along with mine?
No.
If a developer is assigned to you, he/she will be fully devoted to your project full time. Unless, you specifically want to, we do not have a policy of putting in part time resources as that naturally creates a priority conflict that we want to avoid.
