0:04 One of the biggest challenges in software outsourcing is establishing the communication between the client and the software company in the right way.

0:14 We can think it's hard.

0:16 But if you have a trusted partner with years of experience, it's really easy.

0:22 So you can focus mainly on four types of communication.

0:27 So the first one is daily communication.

0:31 So if you operate in agile environment, very often you should discuss every day with your partner, you have the daily stand ups.

0:40 So the best way to do it is of course some kind of the, you know, messaging or chatting platform, the most popular nowadays is Slack.

0:47 Of course, for meetings, the vendors who offer you the possibility to use some video conferencing tools like Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams or any other tool which enables you to see the real people.

1:03 If you need to sum up something, it's nice to use traditional email.

1:09 It also helps a lot.

1:12 Then we have communication about the progress of work and the product.

1:17 So for this, it's best to use some kind of the project management tools Like Asana or Jira or many more, there are hundreds of them.

1:26 But all of them show you the flow of work and you can discuss the features the tasks there and you see how the project is progressing. And also you communicate about the code and code quality.

1:43 So many companies use platforms like GitHub or Bitbucket to provide pull request, code reviews and discuss technical part of your application.

1:56 So if you set up this in this way, it's really easy for you to build the relation and know what's going on within your project and be on the same page with the software development team.

2:11 So think about setting the chat channel for the project using video communicators for meetings, use some kind of the project management tools which helps a lot for you to follow the process and also use some repository for the code to discuss about code quality.
