Developer rates in the US and Western Europe have long exceeded $50–100 per hour, and for many companies an in-house team has become a luxury. Outsourcing to Eastern Europe has grown more expensive along with demand. Against this backdrop, in just a few years Uzbekistan has gone from a “non-obvious option” to a destination that startups and mid-sized businesses from the US, Europe and the Middle East take seriously.
The economics
The rate difference is the first thing you see in the numbers: teams on par with Win to Win work at $10–30 per hour. That’s 2–3× lower than international studios at comparable quality. On a $30–50k project, the savings cover the entire next stage of development.
The IT Park ecosystem
The state technology park IT Park Uzbekistan has created a preferential regime for residents and clear legal mechanisms for working with foreign clients. For the client this means a transparent contract, official payments and a contractor whose status can be checked in the register of residents.
Time zone and communication
Tashkent (UTC+5) conveniently overlaps the European working day and the morning on the US East Coast: questions asked in the evening US time are resolved by the start of the client’s next business day.
How to choose a contractor: a short checklist
- IT Park resident status and verifiable documents
- Live projects you can open and try
- Timeline and budget fixed in the contract, NDA
- Access to the task tracker and regular demos
- Warranty support after release
You can easily check us against this checklist too: documents are in the “Documents and certificates” section, projects in “Projects,” and we’ll set out the terms in a proposal after the first call.
