DeRisk IT Inc.: A Safe Bet For Assured Quality

In today’s fast moving world, speed is a crucial factor in all facets of human existence including the technology industry. In this life

QA testers play a crucial role here in by assisting organizations in delivering products that meet the market standard. DeR-isk IT Inc. is one such software testing company that specializes in delivering these standards to the end consum-ers.

A few years after its inception DeRisk IT Inc. extended its operations to the United States and eventually set up base here. According to DeR-isk IT Inc. President, Lann Stewart the expansion into the offsite model was prompted by the company’s ambition to compete and stand out amongst off-shore companies through its low cost outsourcing model. “We wanted to be a champion of a completely offsite, rural, onshore model designed to keep costs low in order to compete with offshore companies,” said Lann. Another reason for the shift was the cultural, linguistic, and time zone issues many American com-panies have with off-shore software testing companies. All of these issues are eliminated when working with DeRisk IT Inc. which is in the

central time zone and convenient to both East and West coast clients.

Solving these issues has a whole new level of hurdles that companies need to surpass to deliver software that meets the standards that the consumers expect. DeRisk IT Inc. mitigates the risks involved in software development by analyzing the prod-uct throughout the lifecycle of its pro-duction.
