Frequently asked questions
How do you compare to Mumbai IT companies?
We offer CET timezone alignment (vs 4.5h offset), native GDPR compliance, and European quality standards at competitive nearshore rates of $25-40/hr.
What is the timezone advantage?
Morocco GMT+1 gives full-day overlap with Europe. Mumbai IST (GMT+5:30) creates a 4.5h gap that limits real-time collaboration.
Is nearshore more expensive than offshore?
Slightly higher hourly rates ($25-40 vs $15-25), but lower total cost when factoring in fewer bugs, faster communication, and reduced management overhead.

Yes. Enterprise security standards, native GDPR compliance — not retrofitted.
