Hi forum members, my colleagues and I are starting a new project and we need a reliable IT-partner for application development. We are considering different options, but we can’t make up our mind yet. Can someone share their experience? What factors should be taken into account when choosing an IT solutions provider?
I think the first thing to consider is whether the provider understands the specifics of your business and is prepared to offer customized solutions. When we were choosing an it solutions provider, we settled on UKAD. They offered us a whole range of services, from strategy development to technical support. It is very important that your IT partner is in touch and ready to solve problems promptly.
Another point has to do with the development team. Sometimes when firms claim to have cool specialists, you end up being served by young inexperienced employees. In this respect, I suggest that you discuss in advance whom exactly will assume the supervision of your project, and how frequently the progress of the work will be reported.
