When the company was founded in 2006 its entire research and development
department started right away at Ciklum.
"What I like about Ciklum's model is that it's transparent. You see, what you get.
And what you get is an employee for a certain price with administration, office facilities and everything included. And most importantly – it works," says Harald

“Following the recommended best practices from Ciklum has resulted in
nearshore operations reaching the productivity level comparable to an onshore team in less than two years and making the Ukrainian team an invaluable and
integral part of Zensys‟ development department.
The productivity of my team in Ukraine is as what I would expect from a Danish
team but the total cost of ownership is only about 50% of what I would have to pay in Denmark! I can't imagine not having my nearshore team aboard.”

“So in February 2007 we started with 2 skilled developers in Kharkiv. The timing
was perfect because our team in Kharkiv could participate in our newly started project from the beginning, where they soon proved themselves to be valuable
professionals… For us the whole concept of nearshore development was new so
we tried to get as much 'real world' information as possible. This, and the help of Ciklum's technical consultants, gave us a head start.
Having a team of developers working dedicated on our project is of great value to
us, not only because of the great work the team delivers, but also because of the flexibility and cost savings we get from having the team with Ciklum.
