Of course, where else could we start but with ourselves?
Founded in 2011, DECODE is a high-caliber, full-service software development company based in Zagreb, Croatia.

We’ve worked with some of the most ambitious companies out there, from established enterprises to plucky, energetic startups.
Our specialties are building tailor-made mobile apps (both native and cross-platform!) as well as complex, enterprise-grade web solutions.

How to choose the right offshore software development company?
Now that we’ve covered all of these offshore software development companies, you must be asking yourself an obvious question – how do I choose the right one?
Of course, this isn’t a decision you should rush or you might lose a lot of money.
Here’s what you should do:
Clearly define your goals and requirements
Read their case studies
Check their reviews
Review their development process
Evaluate their tech stack
Review their pricing
But, that’s just the process. And it doesn’t really answer the question.
To truly make the right choice, you should look for these 3 things in your offshore development partner:
Transparent and accurate communication
Flexibility and proactivity
Work ethic and cultural compatibility
The latter two are self-explanatory, so we won’t get into them.
The first tip is by far the most important – your offshore partner needs to communicate transparently and accurately.
We can’t overstate the importance of clear communication.
Here’s what DECODE co-founder and CEO, Marko Strizic, had to say on how it benefits you during development:
Poor communication will derail even the simplest tasks and put your entire project at risk.
But, if you hire the right company, it will be effortless.
And you’ll get a partner you can trust for the long haul.
Offshore software development companies: FAQs
Large offshore companies often have a broad range of expertise, access to more resources, and the ability to scale quickly if your project grows in scope.
However, working with a large company often means you don’t get personalized attention, as they typically have a huge number of clients simultaneously.
Smaller firms are often more flexible and can provide highly personalized service. They may specialize in a specific technology or industry, making them a great choice if your project requires niche expertise.
But, they might have limited resources, which could affect scalability if project demands increase significantly.
Project timelines depend on a number of factors like:
Project scope
Project complexity
Team size
Timelines can range from 2-4 months for simple apps while complex, enterprise-scale projects can take 9 months to over a year to build.
You should discuss a realistic timeline upfront and include buffer time for unforeseen delays.
To successfully manage your offshore development team, you need to:
Set clear project milestones and deliverables
Set up clear communication channels
Plan for time zone differences
