IT staff augmentation offers ultimate flexibility, reducing recruitment time and giving you access to a wide range of expertise tailored to your roadmap. We can ramp a team of 2–8 engineers in 1–8 weeks (vs 3–6 months of in-house hiring).
Most suitable if you need developers who will focus 100% on your assignments for a more extended period (6+ months). Our IT staff augmentation services provide skilled professionals focused solely on your assignments.

Hiring a nearshore software development company in Eastern Europe gives you immediate access to a senior, vetted engineering team without the cost and time of in-house recruitment. The benefits of nearshoring with Netcorp;
With Netcorp specifically, you also get 15+ years of European delivery experience, 60+ shipped projects, and project leadership based in an EU member state.
Onshoring (hiring in your home country) gives you the closest collaboration but the highest cost and the smallest talent pool.
Offshoring (Asia or Latin America from a European point of view) is usually less expensive but requires more management overhead, has higher communication friction, and the average coding quality is lower across large outsourced delivery centres.
Nearshoring (Eastern Europe for European companies) is the most productive of the three for European buyers. You get full working-day overlap, similar business culture, EU jurisdiction, GDPR-native delivery, and senior engineers at 30–50% less than onshore rates.
For simpler, well-defined tasks, offshoring works. For anything business-critical, anything that needs ongoing iteration, or anything that handles EU customer data, nearshoring to Eastern Europe is the right choice.
A good selection process protects you from the most common (and expensive) mistakes. The seven steps that work:
For each step, ask the partner to show you exactly how they handle it on a current client.
Software development costs vary widely depending on project scope, team size, and location. As a general guideline, a small web or mobile application typically starts from €20,000–€50,000, mid-size projects range from €50,000–€200,000, and large enterprise solutions can exceed €200,000. Nearshore developers in Eastern Europe (Estonia, Poland) typically cost €40–€80 per hour, offering a strong balance of quality and cost-efficiency. For a detailed breakdown of outsourcing costs, visit our full guide on Software Development Costs.
Treat them as if they were your own employees.
It really doesn't matter what contracts they hold or which company pays their salary — people are people, and if you treat the nearshore team as part of your own team, the attitude, loyalty, and ownership will follow naturally. In practice this means:
The geographic distance disappears within the first few weeks if you remove the cultural distance.
The best outsourcing regions combine close timezone alignment, strong technical universities, sufficient developer talent, and business-friendly legislation. Eastern Europe, particularly Estonia, Poland, and Ukraine, consistently ranks among the top destinations for software outsourcing due to high coding standards, cultural compatibility with Western clients, and competitive rates. For a full country-by-country comparison, see our guide on Best Software Outsourcing Countries.
Almost any part of software development can be outsourced today: engineering, QA, DevOps, design, even product management. But we recommend keeping a small in-house team that owns long-term knowledge of your business logic, customer relationships, and core IP. That in-house core makes sure your systems and services stay alive when an outsourcing engagement ends or changes shape.
A 30-minute software development outsourcing consultation with Netcorp can help you decide where the right line sits for your specific business; what to outsource, what to nearshore, and what to keep close.
Read Netcorp's Outsourcing Guide, talk to 4-5 people who have done outsourcing in a different way, get a free software development outsourcing consultation from us and you should be prepared to avoid the most expensive mistakes in outsourcing software development.
The five most expensive mistakes and how to avoid them:
Communication is the key. Set up communication structures which allow you to have close contact with each other and sync often. Physical meetings after a few months are also a great way to improve relations and productivity. A software development outsourcing consultation can help establish these communication frameworks.
Unlike traditional outsourcing, where an entire project or process is handed over to an external party, IT staff augmentation lets you retain control over the project while gaining access to specialised skills. The external professionals integrate with your team, work under your supervision, and let you quickly adjust team size based on project requirements, without the cost or delay of permanent hiring.
IT staff augmentation provides access to specialised skills and expertise that may not be available within your in-house team, offering scalability and the ability to quickly adjust team size based on project requirements. With our Eastern Europe teams in Estonia and Poland, you also gain time-zone overlap with the UK, DACH, and the Nordics, daily stand-ups at normal hours, not late at night.
A staff augmentation engagement often costs less than direct recruitment. Hiring an engineer through Netcorp removes the time and money spent on recruitment. The rate includes office expenses, equipment, holiday pay, sickness benefits, unemployment insurance, and pension payments; none of which you pay separately. Termination of the contract is typically with one month's notice, with no severance pay or complex employment law involved. Even when the hourly rate looks higher than a junior in-house hire, the all-in cost of staff augmentation usually proves more cost-effective.
Staff augmentation offers unparalleled flexibility; adjust your team's size and skill set to meet evolving project requirements. Whether you need to scale by 2 engineers or 10, our Eastern Europe talent pool means we can typically staff within 1–8 weeks.
Look for access to a niche and varied talent pool, flexibility to scale your team as needed, and time-zone compatibility for smooth collaboration. Ensure they offer quick onboarding, transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and that the engineers integrate seamlessly into your existing team. Our delivery hubs in Estonia and Poland tick every one of those boxes.
We typically place senior engineers within 1–8 weeks of an agreed brief. Replacement of any engineer happens on 24-hour notice — no contract renegotiation, no questions asked.
