What clients think about us

  • “NetRom Software employees stay in their positions relatively long. This ensures continuity and knowledge retention; moreover, these are highly educated staff. This gives us the freedom to focus primarily on creative aspects, while NetRom Software takes care of the technical realization. ”

    Jochem Beek
    Former Head of Product DevelopmentTransdev
  • “Quality delivery and commitment to our product vision. ”

    Joao Borges
    Program LeadVodafoneZiggo
  • “In my opinion, cultural fit is a very important success factor. NetRom developers in the team are perfectly capable of indicating whether something is a good idea or not – we are familiar with such directness in the Netherlands, where it makes no difference if someone is your colleague or the client. This means the difference in the way of working between Dutch and Romanian developers is minimal. This is not always the case in other locations, as you can see when working with developers from Germany, for example.”

Frequently asked questions

What is your vision on a software development services partnership?

The key to a successful software development services partnerships is a true integration of the development staff on both customer and supplier side. High-output development teams operate optimally in a carefully balanced environment in terms of defined roles & responsibilities and skillsets with a comparable and/or complementary level of experience, expertise and commitment on both sides.

Other essential elements are maintaining very low attrition rate/staff turnover, frequent personal meetings and the presence of a skilled and professional product owner. We mention the productowner specifically since we feel that the importance of the role of the productowner in successful product development in a nearshore setting can hardly be overstated.

Being a business partner instead of just a supplier means we play a strategic role in achieving the jointly defined product development goals by operating highly motivated and committed development teams willing to go the extra mile, and where team members on both sides take pride in being part of the team effort to create superb products.

What is your vision on co-creation when it comes to software development services? 

In delivering software development services, it is essential for partners like NetRom to be able to ‘forge’ high-output development teams with (very) low employee turnover. A true co-creation collaboration model is needed, in which the development teams not just follow instructions but have a deep understanding of the desired end-goal and pro-actively challenge and improve decisions of product management. 

The right software development services partner supports, assists, and feeds its dedicated or hybrid teams with relevant knowledge and information whenever this helps improve output. Not just the skillsets of the members of the development team are key to the successful collaboration, the overall technical knowledgebase of the nearshore vendor and the ways this is made accessible to the client is equally important.

What technology stacks do you support in your software development services? 

Please see our technology overview for the complete set of technologies, frameworks, platforms, and cloud-infrastructure solutions we support.

How will the development teams be structured for our requests? 

The structure of development teams can vary based on the specific needs of your requests, the size and complexity of the projects, and the methodologies adopted by your organization. Below you see some examples of how we are working now with different clients:

Agile Teams: In Agile methodologies like Scrum or Kanban, development teams are typically composed of roles such as Product Owner (provided by the client), Scrum Master (provided by NetRom or by the client) and Development Team (devs and QA provided fully by NetRom or blended with the client resources).

Cross-Functional Teams: Cross-functional teams consist of members with diverse skill sets required to deliver a complete product or feature. This might include roles such as developers, designers, testers, and proxy product owners from NetRom side. This approach ensures that all necessary vertical and technical expertise is present within the team.

Feature Teams: In this structure, teams are organized around specific features or components of the software. Each team has all the necessary skills to develop and maintain the assigned features independently.

DevOps Teams: DevOps teams focus on both software development services and operations aspects of software. They work on building and deploying software while also managing infrastructure, ensuring a smoother integration between development and operations.

Specialized Teams: In some cases, organizations might have specialized teams dedicated to specific areas, such as front-end development, back-end development, database management, quality assurance, and security.

Component-Based Teams: Teams might be organized based on the different components or modules of the software. This can facilitate modular development and easier integration.

It’s important to tailor the team structure to the specific requirements and dynamics of your organization and projects. Regular communication, collaboration, and flexibility are key to successful team structures, regardless of the approach you choose. As your projects evolve, we are also adapting and refining the team structure to optimize efficiency and meet changing demands.
