The trend of offshore software development has gathered pace in recent few years. Due to increase in the facilities as well as infrastructure, more and more work is getting outsourced to other countries where the costs are less. With offshore software development, one can understand it as the development of software or other applications in other country or outside the shores of the native countries. Offshore software development has been the major principle behind the increase in the competition in software market all over the world as now clients have direct access to individuals who are capable of giving the same results at lesser prices which is being offered in their respective countries. Offshore software development costs less as due to conversion factors involved in currencies of different countries. The work is outsourced to those countries which have weaker native currency when compared to US Dollar or Euro or Pound and lower wage costs.
