Your business scenario is: Technology-enabled companies as yours are intensive in the use of Application Development and DevOps. However, the software is not a piece of the core business and the company has specifics in complexity, backend operations, finance, people management, sales, etc.

On the one hand, not having a remote workforce in technology that works could become a money drainer of your CapEx/OpEx in local hirings. On the other hand…

Growing remote in technology on your own can be overwhelming, that is why you should think about hiring a Nearshore Application Development company.

The good news is Nearshore Agile Software Development and DevOps companies come to fill the gap. Putting all the capabilities in technology, process, and people of a “tech-focused” company available to “tech-enabled” companies like yours.

Nearshoring enables your company to grow remote safely in control of Productivity, predictability of results, team size flexibility, technical skillsets, quality, ownership, and time-to-market for your Software Products avoiding the risk of Labor costs, lack of know-how in technologies, complexity, and infrastructure.

Even if you plan to invest in Nearshore Software Development, having your remote team or a mixed formula. The following 2 funded global tech-focused companies of different sizes with a majority remote workforce will show how your business can benefit from remoting in Software Development and DevOps.

The other half of our Hubbers work remotely in 18 countries across the globe. Additionally, we enable Hubbers who are not based in HQ, to have the flexibility to work in ways that are most effective for them (at home, in a workspace, etc).”

Trello vision about remote workforce

In their own words in a Remote.co Company Q&A interview with Stella Garber, VP of Marketing at Trello. June 2015.

I want to highlight the main points at interviews:

• How important is remote work to your business model?
  Allowing remote work is an essential element of our ability to hire the very best people, regardless of where they happen to live, to build the best possible product.
• What do you consider the biggest benefits of a remote workforce?
  Having a remote workforce gives us the ability to have the most talented workers, and also the ability to focus on productivity. Being in an office means being surrounded by distractions, whereas remote teams can focus on getting projects done. It also empowers people to get work done at times when they are the most productive- not necessarily a 9-5 schedule for a lot of people.
• What were the main reasons to integrate remote work into your workforce?
  We wanted to recruit the top talent without worrying about geographic barriers since most work can be done collaboratively via tools like Trello and Slack these days.
• What is the hardest part of managing a remote workforce?
  Ensuring a consistent company culture and keeping everyone feeling connected.
