Offshore development teams for UK SaaS companies

In short
SaaS companies live or die by release velocity and gross margin. A dedicated offshore team in Sri Lanka lets UK SaaS businesses add engineering capacity for new features, integrations, QA and platform work at a fraction of UK cost, while UK engineers focus on architecture, security and customers. Developers start from £1,695 a month all-in.

Security

Security and compliance for SaaS

Customers ask about SOC 2, ISO 27001 and GDPR in every security questionnaire. Offshore engineers work on managed devices with MFA and least-privilege access to your repos and cloud; production access can be restricted to UK staff or break-glass procedures. We sign a UK GDPR data processing agreement and international transfer safeguard, and IP is assigned to you.
