Mobile App Development Review from Peter Curtis
It’s comfortable and pretty easy to work with Cogniteq. The company offers competitive prices and a good quality of services. We’ve managed to establish solid ways of working but I believe that for our future project we will move forward in making all the processes even more comfortable for all of us.

Mobile App Development Review from Jan-Willem Luijters
The quality of their staff and their reliable honest management are impressive. Thanks to the contribution from the highly talented Cogniteq staff we implemented the Native Mobile Application on both iOS and Android platforms. On top, Cogniteq helped us increase knowledge of swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android).

Web Development Review from Bahador Katouzian
Cogniteq team helped us with Web development, and we're completely satisfied with the result. Cogniteq is a team of professionals who were clear, responsive, and competent during our work. The team worked ahead of the schedule, we could see the progress during calls and all the feedback on the project status from the PM was clear and comprehensive. Should there be a project that we can’t cover with our internal resources, we will definitely reach out to Cogniteq for a quote again.

Ruchi Hansaliya Review from Google
1.0★
Ruchi Hansaliya's Review Sourced from Google
The worst experience I have had with this company. When a candidate comes for an interview, she/he will not provide a proper PC screen. So how can a candidate complete his interview?And also the hiring process is too slow.

TUSHAR KANJARIYA's Review Sourced from Google
As a full stack developer at Redlio Designs, I can confidently say that this company is an absolute dream to work for. The working environment is top-notch, providing the perfect balance of professionalism and comfort. What truly sets Redlio apart, though, is its incredible team. From day one, I've been surrounded by colleagues who are not only talented but also incredibly supportive. Our seniors lead by example, offering guidance and mentorship that has been instrumental in my growth and development. Working here feels like being part of a family where everyone is genuinely invested in each other's success. If you're looking for a workplace where you can thrive both personally and professionally, look no further than Redlio Designs.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About IT Outsourcing Companies
What services do IT outsourcing firms provide?
IT outsourcing companies provide on-demand services for network security, infrastructure management, disaster recovery, cloud services, data storage, general technical support, and sometimes, software development. The service entails hiring an external managed service provider (MSP) to handle various IT-related tasks and operate as an extension to the in-house team.
The following IT services are commonly outsourced:
Technical support
Data security (security audits, malware protection, data backup and recovery)
Tech infrastructure planning
Helpdesk
Application, software, database, and custom platform development
Network management
Web development/web hosting
Telecommunications
Infrastructure – hardware, software, network installation and support
Data center management
Data storage
What are the different types of IT outsourcing?
When considering IT outsourcing service providers, businesses can choose based on location or collaborating model.
Location-based IT outsourcing
Offshore outsourcing: Relaying IT tasks to IT providers in distant countries to take advantage of lower labor costs.
Nearshore outsourcing: Sending IT-related work to a company that shares a similar time zone or is geographically close.
Onshore outsourcing: Outsourcing a third-party service provider located in the same country.
Model-based IT outsourcing
Staff augmentation: Hiring external IT specialists to join the in-house team temporarily and fill skill gaps without full recruitment.
Dedicated team: Assigning a dedicated team that works exclusively for the contracting company.
Managed services: Contracting a third-party company to provide network management services including call centers, network monitoring, and more.
How much do IT outsourcing service providers charge for their services?
IT outsourcing service providers charge from $15 to $200+ per hour, depending on the services and the provider's location. When considering the cost-to-quality-ratio, businesses commonly hire Eastern European IT outsourcing firms, particularly from Poland, Lithuania, Romania, and Bulgaria. Here’s how other regions compare:
Region
Average hourly rate
North America
$100 to $200
Western Europe
$80 to $150
Eastern Europe
$30 to $70
South Asia

Southeast Asia
$15 to $40
Latin America

What is the difference between IT consulting and IT outsourcing?
In simple terms, the difference between IT consulting and IT outsourcing is that consulting helps you decide what needs to be done, while IT outsourcing companies do it for you.
An IT consulting firm studies the IT infrastructure, identifies problems, checks for vulnerabilities, and recommends what systems, tools, or processes you should use. By contrast, an IT outsourcing company takes over specific work, such as managing infrastructure, maintaining software, handling support, or running day-to-day IT operations.
What industries hire most IT outsourcing firms?
The BSFI (banking, financial services, and insurance) sector outsources IT services the most. The majority of institutions in this vertical have a dedicated IT outsourcing firm that handles their software and cloud maintenance.
Following as a close second are healthcare, retail, and eCommerce verticals. Businesses across these sectors hire IT specialists to accelerate their omnichannel, mobile, and personalization initiatives.
