How We Stay Productive Across Different Locations

  • We keep our distributed offices aligned through instant messaging and videoconferencing daily and weekly.
  • We have a flexible working hours policy to achieve the maximum overlap in business hours (our offshore offices start at 10–11 am and that creates a 5-6 hours overlap with our Dallas-based division).

  • All developers from Ukraine work from safe locations.
  • We extra resources in the development process of our customers’ projects as a backup free of charge, so you can rest assured that the work is progressing forward even in case of force majeure.
  • All clients’ sensitive data and code are encrypted and saved in the cloud.

Our IT Outsourcing Success Story

 

Today, Ascendix Technologies is a diverse, multinational, and multicultural community of skilled software developers, Salesforce consultants, and admins speaking different languages but united by a shared passion for technology and innovation.

But we weren’t always like this. Remember the old hair club for men commercials where the guy would say, “I’m not just the owner, I’m a member”? That’s us when it comes to Ascendix Offshore Development Services!

As a professional services company first and foremost, we realized that local US-based resources were either not enough or too costly or not qualified enough for the continued evolution of our consulting project and support of our products.

So 10 years ago, we undertook our first steps toward outsourcing. That was a long way that took us to 7 locations across 3 continents until we finally landed in Ukraine, Portugal, Luxembourg, and Poland.

We had many roadblocks and barriers along the way, among which was our tough decision to leave Ukraine – our first outsourcing destination and a unique milestone on the company’s growth roadmap. We relocated to Poland, which lured us with its untapped potential for managed IT services and eventually buoyed our commitment to set up an Ascendix office there.
