 Hanoinet - LogiGear Corporation, headquartered in Foster City, California, has embarked on further expansion of the company's HCMC branch, the first US-led software testing center in Vietnam.
LogiGear envisions Vietnam as a world-class software testing outsourcing destination for Asia and the United States. For many years, government policies have encouraged the development of information technology industries in Vietnam, in the interest of national industrialization and modernization. Information technology - especially software technology - has played the key role in recent dramatic changes in economic, cultural and social life of modern world. In May 2008, Gartner, the world's leading information technology research and advisory company, has included Vietnam in a report titled "Gartner's Top 30 Locations for Offshore Services," proving that Vietnam has successfully positioned itself.
Vietnam's young and vibrant workforce who not only offers lower labor costs, but also is well educated in science and technology are outstanding advantages which help Vietnam to get ready for new strong investment waves in the future. Understanding these advantages, LogiGear is leading the way for Vietnam to become the top-ranking software testing and development center in the world.
LogiGear's vision of the company's Vietnam branch as a software testing and research center of international caliber is supported not only by the low-cost, well-educated English-speaking workforce, but also by political, economic, religious, security, business and intellectual property policies of the government that make Vietnam to be the best choice as an outsourcing destination for offshore software testing services.
Customers can save their time as well as improve software quality through LogiGear Vietnam's testing efficiency and excellence, speeding time-to-market for new software products. Based upon these successes, LogiGear has recently broken ground on a new 30,000 square foot facility in HCMC. LogiGear expects to employ 500 high qualified employees in Vietnam by the end of 2008.
Nguyen Quoc Hung, Chief Executive Officer of LogiGear Corporation, is co-author of testing computer software books including "Testing Computer Software (Wiley, 1999)", an IT bestseller in the US, and "Testing Applications on the Web" (Wiley, 2003). "Testing Applications on the Web" and a new US publication, "Global Software Test Automation" (HappyAbout, 2007). These books will soon be translated and published in Vietnam in near future. In his new book, Nguyen Quoc Hung shares his vision of the efficiencies that can be realized through the right strategy and tactics of combining automation and globalsoutsourcing in software testing. This vision is now concretized by the establishment and operation of LogiGear Vietnam (LTRC).
MX Logic, the pioneer in providing e-mail and web security services in the United States, has benefited from LogiGear's global automation approach. Jamie Tischart, Director of Quality Assurance at MX Logic pressed, "LogiGear has delivered an innovative turnkey solution that is fully automatic and has low-cost while scope of work is expanded up to 90%. While considering any test automation initiative, the most important thing is to understand that a successful automation project requires care and maintenance.
Not only does LogiGear provide MX Logic with an intelligent automatic tool in TestArchitect™, the company also provides us with the cost effective resources to enhance and maintain our automation projects. With a comparable feature set to more expensive licensed tools, our automatic technology budget can be utilized on both the tool and the engineers to support it with the same price. It guarantees our success while other companies fail". |
