There are a number of reasons companies choose to outsource to Moldova. While among the most obvious are the moderate costs, skilled professionals and top-quality project delivery, there are many other factors at play too. To make it easier to understand why to outsource to Moldova and why this destination is bound to be among the top IT industry trends in 2021, I invite you to go through those reasons.
I love to start with the nutshell cause:
Highly Qualified Professionals
Moldova has an impressive educational tradition especially having a very strong IT through industry academia agreements which allows the graduates to experience and strengthen their technical concepts.
Moldova has a number of technical institutions that provide quality education, creating professionals who have strong foundations and practical knowledge. The Technical University of Moldova and State University of Moldova, among others, are top-ranked universities. They produce talented engineers and developers every year. Most Moldovan professionals are fluent in 2 to 3 languages at least, the most common being English, Russian, German and French.
International giants like Hewlett Packard, Intel, Microsoft, and Oracle, offer IT certification and other programs that contribute to Moldova’s vibrant IT ecosystem. These certifications allow Moldovan companies to cater to a large list of clients from North Europe, Western Europe, Benelux, North America, and other regions. From the IT outsourcing perspective, Moldova, therefore, provides a huge variety of talent, while offering cost-effective solutions for a large diversity of IT needs.
Almost 80% of the ~22,000 IT specialists are software engineers, data analysts, software developers, and project managers, according to the IDC CEMA Research. This makes Moldova the perfect destination for those looking to access the talent pool for data analytics, UI design, development of software, application, mobile software development, and even data visualization. It also provides services to those looking at very industry-specific niches, and enterprise application development.
The Geographic Reason – the one that stands out Moldova from the crowd of outsourcing destinations
Moldova is located in the Eastern part of Europe, and is well-positioned from a geographic point of view to operate for western customers even with overlapping working hours. The UTC +2 time zone makes it convenient. In addition, it is only 2 to 3 hours away from the major European hubs. Citizens from over 100 countries, including all those in the European Union, have visa-free entry available.
Even pandemics does not affect this since business trips are allowed and the development process was never stopped.
In addition to the stated above, Moldova is the bridge between the eastern and western markets. With ICT services and product development increasing over 20 times since 2006, the rate of growth is on a rise in Moldova.
If the Well qualified reason is my favorite…our clients adore the Competitive Prices we offer
For regions with traditionally high operational costs and significant payroll costs, Moldova is a great destination with respect to the cost. It allows our clients to collaborate with a larger talent pool but keeping the costs at the level they would love to see. It is feasible to simultaneously optimize business strategy and better manage overall costs.
This is a surefire way to get ahead in this competitive market.
With cutting edge technology and an ever-growing workforce available for a very competitive cost, Moldova became the best option for IT companies benefiting from a unique tax policy of 7% from the turnover. This tax has replaced: Corporate Income Tax (CIT); Personal Income Tax (PIT); social security and medical insurance taxes; local and real estate taxes.
Global Recognition for Moldova
Moldova has been gaining popularity with companies seeking to outsource their IT projects. It has also gained global recognition for many of its initiatives, including the ease of setting up business and using the talent pool. With a very good technical education system and liberal rules and taxes, it is no wonder that Moldova is rapidly becoming the primary choice for companies looking for options to outsource.
The World Trade organization places the volume of it and telecom export growth to be from $58 million to $188 million over nine years.
Moldova has a network readiness index position of 77, and stands at 5th place for broadband availability, making it a prime destination to access talent from without the worry of connectivity issues. It has a Global Innovation index of 33, and a Network Readiness Index of 4 out of a maximum of 7. Their Current Ease of Doing business score is a 74.4, with a standard 1.03 percent growth per annum.
All this makes Moldova a popular IT hub for companies. You can get great employees who can work remotely without any issues, and can provide services regularly due to the convenient time zone and liberal laws, along with cost-effective work models.
