We’re a fearless group of design geeks that love a good challenge!

It’s so easy to be seduced by the idea of outsourcing your web development project to cheap developers overseas. If you’ve tried the cheap offshore outsource web design experience, but your website just doesn’t work (and you don’t want to start from scratch) we can review the project, help you correct any critical coding errors or security issues and help you to plan a new way forward.

Sometimes it’s not easy, or even fun work. But unfortunately it’s necessary.

All of our services are done in-house… and that’s something that will never change

Why Offshore Rescue?

Time and time again, we’ve had new clients come to us (once in tears!) with a poorly written, badly coded web project that was in desperate need of help. We can often recover and reuse parts of it, rebuild others, lock down and ensure security, and get the project functioning as it was originally intended. We find that some of the most common problems with offshore developers include:

Over Promise & Under Deliver

Often the biggest problem is when an offshore developer simply doesn’t understand the scope of the project, and then ends up over promising and then doesn’t fully deliver.

Low Budget = Low Result

Unfortunately it’s often a case where you get what you pay for. A low budget might be fine for a proof of concept, but don’t expect high quality, polished results.

Endless Communication Loop

Due to time-zone differences, and throw in some cultural communication challenges, the endless communication loop can be torture even with effort made on both sides.

We’re a New York City based web development agency, experienced with delivering online solutions ranging from simple websites to heavily customized projects serving complex business requirements. We work with WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify and many other frameworks to build heavy-duty web projects. We’ll take a look at your existing offshore project to see if we can take it over and get you some real results.

We don’t offshore… Ever

We receive calls or e-mails almost every week from offshore development companies offering web design and development services for a low hourly rate. To some agencies, the potential profit margin might initially seem tempting, but we always pass on this “great opportunity” every time. Here’s why…

Quality Control

We always guarantee quality to our clients. Our experience is that the quality of the code delivered by offshore channels is often severely lacking. Commonly these companies deliver applications which use large blocks of procedural code and no centralization of reusable components.

We specialize in redesigning and rewriting web applications which have been outsourced to developers overseas where the delivered applications are unreliable, unmanageable, not secure and/or full of bugs.

We’re a passionate, highly skilled group of web geeks with real industry experience. We’re more than qualified to get it done… so why would we trust someone else with our reputation and our client’s deliverables? We just don’t.

Keep It Simple

By using our own trusted in-house resources and knowing that our products are built the right way, we don’t have to worry about incurring ongoing technical issues.

Using outsourced resources increases security and privacy concerns while introducing potential technical problems that will require extra work to fix. There are extreme cultural differences that result in a huge gap between how other cultures work and how you might expect them to work. Communication problems, misunderstandings, and rework is the norm, not the exception. Sure, there might be some good offshore developers out there… but we only ever hear about the bad ones.

Having developers in-house makes it quick and easy to make changes, or speed up a project. Also, having late night conference calls during dinner time doesn’t help the home-life.

We Don’t Do ‘Cheap’ Work

We like to build trusted relationships with our clients, and a lot of effort goes in to the quality of our projects – like good design, smart user-interface design, quality assurance, and project management. As well as solid, sturdy and secure coding that we can be proud of.

We don’t wish to just churn out development projects. We take the time to understand the project from the outset, to make good development decisions early on, and to build in a way that any developer (e.g. new developers we hire over time) would be happy to come along and understand the coding processes used in a project.

But cutting corners more often than not means cutting quality, and we don’t ever want to cut quality – we like our clients too much!
