You can hire Indian programmers in different ways, depending on your requirements and the commitment level you expect from them.

Although some businesses decide to employ freelancers, most companies use two engagement models: outsourcing or offshoring.

Outsourcing means engaging individuals or agencies to remotely complete a fixed-term project, similar to working with freelance professionals. These developers have no ownership over the project. Since the main attraction for businesses that outsource engineering is low prices, the quality they get is frequently below par, and sometimes the output is non-existent.

Offshoring involves relocating business tasks or operations to a different country. When done right, offshoring allows you to build a team of high-quality engineers who work as your in-house team. In other words, you get permanent employees that extend your local workforce.

When you offshore software development, you guarantee to engage serious and committed developers looking for a career in your team — something that's impossible with outsourcing.
