outsourcing to China prepares you for the future
With a steady supply of highly-educated and technically skilled programmers,
China has already become the outsourcing destination of choice for Asian
countries C India included. Companies with strategic and financial interests
in China have already benefited from their early experiences cooperating with
companies in the world's largest market economy. Outsourcing is merely the first step.
At Exosoft, we employ some of China's most talented, detail-oriented,
and creative software engineers available. Our native English-speaking
management team plays an active role in ensuring the quality,
integrity, and cultural development of our workforce. The benefits
of which include increased productivity, security and confidentiality,
to provide a more productive, flexible workforce that understand
the need for transparency and clear communication in the development
process.
Exosoft is an integral part of China's open source community, helping spread the development of open source

software through active participation in the Beijing Linux Users Group, zope.cn and python.cn.

lightweight methodologies reign in heavyweight projects
Software developers have to be ready to respond to change in today's
fast-paced business environment. Previous engineering methods
have relied heavily on long-range, extremely detailed planning
to predict all the problems that may occur in the development
process. The bureaucratic nature of these processes lengthens
development time, which in turn increases costs and potentially
makes the project outdated before it becomes functional. Where
engineering methods are predictive in nature, agile methodologies
are adaptive and provide just enough process to keep the project
in control. The technique allows skilled software development
teams to thrive in today's changing environment.
Exosoft engineers have been trained to be the best in their
field and Exosoft has been proactive in installing automated
systems that reduce the weight of the construction and debugging
process and allow developers to focus on the design and delivery
of great software. Using an iterative approach based on XP and
SCRUM,
our software engineers focus on delivering timely, functional
software that clients can evaluate first hand to discover bugs
and point out misunderstood requirements. As a result, Exosoft
customers become equal partners in the development process,
and communicate via our online project tracking and reporting
system, VoIP-based conference call system*, instant messaging,
and of course, email.
Exosoft is located in Beijing, which operates on Beijing Standard
Time (GMT+08:00) and does not participate in daylight savings
time, putting it exactly 8 hours ahead of London and 12 hours
ahead of US Eastern Standard Time, making it a strategic location
for round-the-clock development operations.

"The project was very complex and market specific. With only five months to go, I knew it
would be hard to find a company capable enough to deliver the project on  time without sacrificing quality
and flexibility, but Exosoft really came though in a big way. They have probably the best team I've
ever seen assembled! Despite the difference in time and distance, our team managed to work very well with
the culture of the Exosoft team and deliver the  software to spec and on time."

open source, open standards, open communication
Open source is about creating a flexible, yet robust technology
platform that is not confined by the business strategy of any
one company and that does not hide the risk of bugs and other
vulnerabilities behind corporate 
trade secret law. Open standards compliment open source by providing
readily available data and communication formats that are unencumbered
by licensing fees and readily available for implementation into
many software applications. By using open standards, companies
are making future-proof decisions that improve backwards compatibility
in the years to come, and prevent software lock-in which results
in complicated and costly IT infrastructures.
Exosoft is an Open Company. We see open technologies as a solution to the patchwork of proprietary applications,
protocols, and file types that prevent companies from doing what they do best C tending to their core business.
Using the ingredients of open source, Exosoft is able to focus on the critical aspects of your project: who will be using it,
how they will use it and how the software will stress and scale over time. Ultimately, the code is yours and yours
alone - the choice to share or keep it to yourself should be based on your own company's culture and strategic goals.
