About the eBook
This comprehensive eBook, "The True Cost of Software Development," explores the often-overlooked factors that significantly influence the True Cost of Development (TCOD) when working with offshore teams.

Hidden costs can accumulate throughout a project, impacting both timelines and outcomes in ways that may not be immediately apparent.
