Comparison
We're an offshore team too. Here's the difference.
Renga is based in India, so the honest comparison isn't location. It's how the work is sold: hourly estimates with open scope versus one fixed price, written acceptance criteria and money back if we're late.
Where offshore projects usually hurt
- "200 hours at $30" turns into 400.
- Specs get misread across time zones, then reworked.
- Code doesn't follow conventions your next developer knows.
- Nobody owns the launch date.
How we work instead
- Fixed price per build, agreed before kickoff.
- Daily async updates and a staging link, so you see progress without waiting for a meeting.
- One or two live calls a week in your working hours. We overlap with US, UK and EU mornings or evenings.
- Standard Laravel code, tests and docs.
- Late = 25% back. Not as agreed = full refund.
| Renga | Typical offshore shop | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Fixed per build | Hourly estimate |
| Scope | One page, signed | Open |
| Launch date | Guaranteed (25% back) | Estimated |
| Communication | Daily async + weekly calls in your hours | Varies |
| Code | Your repo from day one | Often handed over at the end |
