Outsourcing software development to Albania: a practical guide

What you gain (and what to watch for) when you hire a Tirana team for websites and custom software — time zone, languages, cost and how we run projects.

Italian and EU companies increasingly outsource software development to Albania for a simple reason: overlapping working hours, strong English (and Italian) communication, and engineering costs that usually beat Western Europe — without going fully offshore.

What works well from Tirana

  • Marketing sites and CMS builds
  • Custom web apps, portals and internal tools
  • ERP / CRM modules scoped in phases
  • Ongoing maintenance after launch

What to check before you hire

  1. Named project lead — who answers when priorities change?
  2. Written scope — pages, modules, integrations, acceptance.
  3. Stack fit — WordPress vs custom; hosting you can own.
  4. Languages — EN / IT / SQ support for your users and your team.
  5. After launch — who patches, monitors and improves?

How Manifesto runs it

We are based in Tirana and deliver web development and product work with the same team that designs. You get estimates in writing, staging reviews and a clear path from first release to maintenance.
