The advantages of the offshore web agency Bocasay
In general, companies that decide to outsource their web development to us do so to benefit from several advantages, which are detailed in the table below.
Advantage | |
1. You save on Costs | The primary benefit of offshore outsourcing is the reduction in your IT development costs by relocating your production to a foreign country where rates are lower. In Bocasay’s case, these destinations include Madagascar, Mauritius, and Vietnam. The cost savings you achieve cover: Human resources and recruitment expenses Administrative overhead Training-related costs Costs associated with managing turnover Indirect infrastructure costs: hardware, network, licenses, software, supplier management, etc. |
2. You boost productivity and speed up product launches | Thanks to our agency’s capabilities, you accelerate your IT projects and improve its quality. You’re surrounded by experts in cutting-edge technologies. This gives you the opportunity to enhance your responsiveness and become faster at: Bringing your applications to market, making you more competitive in the long term than your competitors Releasing new features online |
3. You reduce your opportunity cost | Offshore outsourcing allows you to carry out IT work at a lower cost. You free up the budget by avoiding internal hiring or using more expensive local providers. These savings can be reinvested in other important areas of your business: growth, innovation, strategic intelligence… By allocating fewer resources to offshorable tasks, you can better assign your internal teams and reallocate them more smartly to other strategic opportunities for your company’s development. |
4. You gain unmatched flexibility while keeping control over supplier costs | Today’s market conditions require companies to rapidly adapt to changing events. Success no longer belongs to the fastest, but to the most agile and adaptable. Recent years have only confirmed this fact. Offshore outsourcing offers flexibility and agility in resource management: Developers Project managers QA testers Technical architects When your production increases, you ask us to add more members to your offshore team under our management. Conversely, when your needs decrease, we scale the team down accordingly. This prevents you from being financially stuck. This is the strength of our model: adjusting the size of the developer team to match your evolving needs. Such agility in resource management is only feasible with an external provider—internally, it’s more difficult to part ways with staff during slow periods. |
5. You gain access to strong and diverse technological expertise | Keeping up with the accelerating pace of tech innovation (AI, IoT, VR, AR, Big Data, etc.) is no small feat. By working with us, you gain access to a wide range of technologies: front-end, back-end, full-stack, technical architecture. You’re never short on talent when new skillsets are needed. With solid technical support, you’re no longer limited. You gain expertise in today’s most in-demand technologies: Python (AI, data)JavaScript, TypeScript (web, mobile)Java (business apps, Android)C / C++ (embedded systems, software, video games)Rust (cybersecurity)Go (Cloud)Kotlin (Android)Swift (iOS)SQL (databases)PHP (Web, CMS) With Bocasay, you have the expertise to harness both classic and emerging technologies. |
6. You Integrate AI into Your Business at a Lower Cost | As a CTO or CIO, you’ll inevitably be required to integrate AI into your company, which comes at a cost. Adding AI to your existing applications can range from thousands to several million euros, depending on your needs. A turnkey solution may be sufficient, but if your expectations are specific to business processes, off-the-shelf tools won’t suffice. To justify your AI investments to management, offshore outsourcing becomes a major asset, as it allows you to present significantly lower costs than local alternatives. With the offshore model, you stay in the race, and even gain an edge, by choosing to relocate AI project development at reduced costs. And you remain on the cutting edge, since AI expertise abroad is just as strong, if not better, than what’s available locally (e.g., in France). |
7. You improve data governance and strategic decision-making | As your IT partner, we are experts in data handling. Beyond daily web development, we support you in defining a robust strategy to build a scalable, integrated data infrastructure. This holistic approach helps you better manage your information system and fine-tune strategic decisions. In your day-to-day operations (new project launches, bug fixing, urgent business requests, incident management), you’re often overwhelmed, and struggle to find the right partner to build a data-driven, AI-enhanced infrastructure. |
8. You overcome the talent shortage | HR challenges are now more critical than ever. Between the COVID crisis, changing employee expectations (remote work, flexible schedules), and the talent shortage, managing staff efficiently and flexibly is a major challenge. This is compounded by high turnover and evolving generational expectations. When you work with Bocasay, you offload a large part of these HR challenges, at least for the roles we provide: Functional project managers Technical project managers Lead developers Front-end, back-end, and full-stack developers Technical architects Scrum masters Product owners UX/UI designers QA testers By outsourcing these skills, you gain the flexibility to refresh your teams without bearing the associated risks and costs. We handle the HR side, we have a talent pool of over 200 professionals. You’ll never lack qualified resources in new technologies again. |
9. You strengthen your company’s cybersecurity | As of February 2025, 69% of CIOs reported cybersecurity and technology risk as their top priority for the coming year, according to Gartner. We can work with you to improve these areas. Our cybersecurity experts collaborate with your team to enhance and unify your company’s security program, or establish one if it doesn’t yet exist. We assess risk exposure, align with your business goals, and identify the most suitable processes to meet your cybersecurity needs. |
You can rely on Bocasay, and by extension, offshore IT outsourcing, to handle your daily IT challenges and help you reach the long-term goals your company has set.
Similar to a local IT provider, an international partner is a mutually beneficial partnership that supports the expansion and development of your business.
About Bocasay
Bocasay was founded in 2012.
Since then, the company has expanded and enhanced its IT development skills over the course of 13 years, especially in the development of online applications and custom software solutions.
The project was initiated by a duo: Julien Goumet and Romain Juillet, who founded Bocasay with a strong conviction to transform the way IT projects are outsourced. Choosing countries from the Global South was a natural decision, as it provides French and international companies the opportunity to outsource IT development while benefiting from numerous advantages.
Driven by a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to build a meaningful connection between people and their environment, Bocasay was founded on humanistic values, emphasizing respect for individuals while striving for a results-oriented culture.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
To wrap up this article, here are some of the most common questions we receive regarding outsourcing to an offshore agency.
Are my data safe if I work with an offshore company?
Yes, they are. The infrastructures we use are secure (certified servers, automatic backups, data encryption…), and we adhere to international standards, including GDPR compliance.
Your data are doubly protected: contractually, on one hand, and technically, on the other.
Can cultural and language differences hinder the success of offshore projects?
When we recruit team members abroad, we place equal importance on technical skills and soft skills. This selection process helps minimize potential cultural gaps.
As for language differences, this isn’t an issue in Madagascar, where all our talents speak fluent French.
In Vietnam and Mauritius, where English is the primary language, we assign bilingual project managers to act as intermediaries between you and your teams.
We are experienced in handling such situations.
What type of contract is best suited for working with an offshore IT provider?
That depends on your needs. If you have a fixed budget and a clearly defined project scope, we recommend a fixed-price contract. This model secures your budget and timeline, with deliverables clearly set from the beginning.
If your needs are evolving, long-term, or flexible, we’ll guide you toward a time and materials (T&M) contract where you’re billed only for the actual time the offshore team spends on your project.
This is ideal when your requirements change frequently or when you’re in a test-and-learn phase with your features.
