Why Outsource Magento Development to Vietnam: Top 3 Reasons with Statistics

Vietnam has gained popularity as a new outsourcing paradise for software development (including Magento, Shopify and other emerging headless technologies) in recent years, as it ranked:

  • #1 in Global Outsourcing Destination by C&W – 2015.
  • #5 in A.T. Kearney Global Services Location Index (GSLI) – 2019.
  • #13 in the Top 50 Digital Nations (Tholons Services Globalization COUNTRY INDEX – 2019).

Why do more and more successful companies choose to outsource Magento development to Vietnam? 

Costs

In Vietnam, labor costs are 90% less than those in the U.S. (Statista, 2018), which brings significant cost savings for your company. Compared to other outsourcing destinations, Vietnam’s labor costs are attractive. 

Vietnam’s outsourcing rates are 25% lower than those in India and even lower than countries in Eastern Europe. Furthermore, living costs in major cities in Vietnam, such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, are still lower than in major cities in SEA or Asia in general. All of these make hiring developers in general and Magento developers in Vietnam a lot more cost-effective.

Trained Techies

Another important reason to choose Vietnam as an offshore location is that the young generation of skilled workers is highly motivated and technologically advanced. This dynamic and young generation provides a great pool of skilled software developers required to meet the growing demand for offshore development in general and specifically for Magento development. Today the country has a 97.75% literacy rate (GlobalData, 2021), and 80% of the country’s college graduates hold degrees in the sciences. Each year, more than 55,000 technical engineers graduate from universities (TopDev, 2021). The reduction in prices and the fast pace of development, therefore, are not achieved at the expense of lower-quality projects.

Language

Regarding communication, in contrast to many Asian languages, Vietnamese uses the Latin alphabet, just as English does. This makes it relatively easy for Vietnamese people to learn English. English is the second most popular language in Vietnam, and the majority of college and university graduates have high proficiency in English. Consequently, most IT developers in Vietnam are able to communicate easily with companies from English-speaking countries during the implementation of projects.

There are plenty of other reasons, such as socio-economic stability, ethnic or religious stability, political stability, and business environment.  Several of the world’s largest IT companies, including IBM, LG, Samsung, and Intel, which have the highest overall standards, have outsourced work to Vietnam. Without a doubt, Vietnam is a wise choice to put into consideration for software development services or outsourcing Magento development in particular.
