1. Introduction
More and more businesses are choosing offshore development in Vietnam to build their matching services, and NKKTech Global has become a trusted partner for such projects. This article explores the advantages and disadvantages of developing a matching platform offshore, and why NKKTech Global stands out as your ideal development partner.
2. Advantages
2.1 Cost Efficiency
Vietnam offers highly competitive labor costs, saving businesses 60–80% compared to hiring locally in Japan, the US, or Europe.
2.2 Access to High-Quality Talent
Vietnam has over 530,000 software engineers, with ~57,000 graduates annually. Many are skilled in modern technologies and fluent in English, making collaboration seamless for global projects.
2.3 Scalability and Flexibility
Offshore teams allow you to easily scale up or down depending on your project’s phase without the overhead of hiring and managing in-house.
2.4 Faster Time-to-Market
Experienced teams using Agile/Scrum frameworks help accelerate development cycles and shorten product launch timelines.
2.5 Focus on Core Business
While NKKTech Global handles recruitment, team management, infrastructure, and security, your company can stay focused on core business strategies.
3. Disadvantages
3.1 Time Zone and Cultural Differences
Although Vietnam’s time zone is close to Japan (+2 hours) and manageable for US-based teams, scheduling meetings and ensuring clear communication require proactive planning.
3.2 Communication and Quality Control Challenges
There may be challenges in maintaining consistent quality, especially during UX/UI phases, if communication is not clearly established.
3.3 Security and Intellectual Property Risks
Working offshore requires strict NDA agreements and robust security measures to protect your intellectual property.

As operations are handled by the offshore partner, businesses may feel less control without regular monitoring.
