It then suggests questions to ask before signing, and compares several alternatives, including MaaSil, the publisher of this article.

Esokia at a glance

Who is Esokia?

Esokia was founded in Mauritius by its current managing director. Sources differ on the year: Drupal.org and the Maltem group state 2008, whereas the Esokia About page states 2009. The website displays "12 years" of activity on that same undated page, and elsewhere "17 years" in a blog post published in early 2026.

The companies behind the brand

In Mauritius, the historic company is called Esokia Web Agency Ltd; its Mauritian registration number could not be found. In France, ESOKIA FRANCE is a SAS (simplified joint-stock company) registered under the French company registration number (SIREN) 879908192.

According to the Annuaire des entreprises, this SAS was created on 29 November 2019. For 2024 it reported revenue of €1,260,097 and a net profit of €37,976. The register records 0 employees for 2024: the production teams work in the group's other countries. Its head office was moved to Levallois-Perret on 30 June 2026, after Paris (2019-2021) and then Neuilly-sur-Seine (2021-2026).

The SAS is chaired by another company, ESOKIA FINANCE, itself chaired by Maltem Consulting Group.

From the Maltem group to Robinson Technologies

On 21 December 2021, Maltem Consulting Group announced the acquisition of Esokia, for an undisclosed amount. Maltem then described Esokia as an agency of about a hundred staff.

On 16 December 2025, Robinson Technologies, parent company of Astek, announced exclusive talks to acquire 100% of Maltem. A press release dated 16 February 2026 announces the acquisition of the Maltem group by Robinson Technologies. On its blog, Esokia announces it is joining Robinson Technologies together with Bocasay, a sister company. Esokia's website still shows the mention "Powered by Maltem".

What services does Esokia offer?

Esokia presents itself as a digital agency with a "360° approach": service design, UX/UI design, MVP (first version of a product) development, websites, marketplaces, mobile apps, hosting and maintenance. Its English home page describes it as follows: "Offshore developer experts specialized in AI". Its offer is technical and focused on digital projects, not on back-office or customer service functions.

Additional services

The website also mentions audits (code, security, SEO, e-commerce), TPAM (third-party application maintenance, meaning outsourced maintenance of applications), managed hosting and quality assurance. Added to these are digital marketing, cybersecurity with penetration testing, AI integration and the resale of Cloudflare services.

Profiles and technologies

The page dedicated to offshore developers presents web and mobile developers, UX/UI designers, project managers, QA testers and DevOps engineers. Profiles can be filtered by experience (from 0 to over 7 years) and by country, Mauritius or Madagascar.

The technologies mentioned range from Drupal (Esokia is an Acquia partner), Symfony and WordPress to React, .NET, Java, Python and Flutter. Esokia states that its developers use AI tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude or ChatGPT. Its blog claims development speed has been "doubled", without specifying a measurement method.

Clients displayed

According to its Projects page, Esokia serves startups, SMEs, software vendors and large French and European accounts. It notably displays the logos of Lactalis, Air Mauritius, Orange, Swiss Life and Compass Group, without detailing the assignments or their dates.

How much does Esokia cost?

Esokia does not publish its prices: no price list, no daily rate and no itemised package appears on the pages consulted. The website mentions "very competitive rates" for Madagascar, without giving an amount.

Billing models

The Esokia IT outsourcing page and a blog article describe several models:

According to Esokia, each agreement rests on a contract that specifies rates, fees, responsibilities and downtime. The minimum commitment period outside the service centre, the trial period and the set-up fees are not published.

Where do Esokia's teams work?

The Esokia Contact page lists five offices: Levallois-Perret (France), Ebène (Mauritius), Antananarivo (Madagascar), Brussels (Belgium) and Jizzakh (Uzbekistan). According to an interview published in January 2024 by IT Park Uzbekistan, the Jizzakh office is a subsidiary named EBM Digital.

The production teams are in Mauritius and Madagascar: these are the two countries offered in the profile filter, and the job offers displayed all concern Mauritius. Esokia says it opened a new office in Madagascar in 2025.

Esokia highlights a time difference of 1 to 2 hours with Europe; Madagascar is on GMT+3. The teams work in French and English. One article mentions 24/7 availability, without describing any organised round-the-clock service.

Locations presented differently depending on the page

The About and Careers pages mention "4 agencies around the world": Paris, Mauritius, Madagascar and Serbia, which is absent from the Contact page. Press coverage from 2017 to 2021 also cites Serbia and Costa Rica. The title of the English home page mentions Vietnam, which is a location of Bocasay, Esokia's sister company. For Antananarivo, the website gives at times the Redland tower in Ankorondrano, at times the Golden Business Center in the Alarobia district.

What do reviews say about Esokia?

No usable independent customer review was found. On Trustpilot, the esokia.com listing shows 0 reviews on 16 October 2026. No Esokia listing was found on Clutch, GoodFirms or Sortlist, and Google reviews could not be consulted.

On the employee side, the Glassdoor page could not be opened and no Indeed listing was found. Esokia says it obtained the "Happy at Work Index" label from ChooseMyCompany in Mauritius, then in Madagascar, after an anonymous internal survey. The score, the year and the number of respondents are not published.

No controversy or dispute appears in the sources consulted, and the French company is active in the register. This absence of results is not a guarantee.

What are Esokia's strengths?

• Long-standing activity and published accounts: the brand has existed since 2008 or 2009, and the French company files its accounts.

• Several collaboration models: time and material, dedicated team, fixed price, TPAM or service centre.

• Time-zone proximity to Europe and teams working in French and English.

• A wide range of web, mobile and e-commerce technologies.

• Declared cybersecurity commitments: CyberVadis medal and "TopTech 2025" award.

• The backing of a group: Maltem, then Robinson Technologies, which claims 11,000 engineers according to Esokia's blog.

Points to check before choosing Esokia

These questions concern information absent from public sources.

1. Price: what is the all-inclusive cost, excl. VAT, by experience level and by country? What are the set-up fees and the price revision rules?

2. Contracting entity: which company signs the contract? The register shows 0 employees in 2024 for the French company: which entity employs the developers, and under which labour law?

3. Shareholder: does the acquisition by Robinson Technologies change the point of contact, the prices or the general terms?

4. Management: who directs the day-to-day work? Can a developer be 100% dedicated to your team? What is the notice period to end the assignment?

5. Commitment: what is the minimum duration in figures, the trial period and the exit conditions?

6. Certifications: no ISO standard is displayed. Esokia's 2025 review cites a CyberVadis medal: ask for the certificate, the score and the sites covered.

7. Production locations: which sites would work on your project?

8. References: can you contact two or three clients about a recent, comparable assignment?

Which companies is Esokia suited to?

Esokia may suit companies that have a digital project to entrust to a managed team: website, e-commerce platform, marketplace, mobile app or redesign. Software vendors and companies seeking application maintenance under contract (TPAM) also match the targets it displays.

Other needs call for more checks. Esokia does not describe a model in which a staff member is 100% integrated into the client's teams under the client's sole direction. Administrative, accounting or customer service profiles do not feature in its offer. Finally, a company that wants to compare published prices before any discussion will have to request a quote.

What are the alternatives to Esokia?

The players below also work from Madagascar or Mauritius, with different offers. Before choosing, our guide to IT outsourcing details the criteria to compare.

Bocasay

Bocasay is a sister company of Esokia, within the same group. According to its profile on the Maltem website, this French IT provider founded in 2012 has more than 170 staff. It has offices in France, Madagascar, Vietnam, Singapore and Mauritius. Bocasay may interest a company that wants development teams in Vietnam, in addition to the Indian Ocean.

Intelcia

Intelcia is a Moroccan outsourcing group. In 2018, according to an article by FNH, it took over the sites of Outremer Télécom in Madagascar and Mauritius: more than 1,500 positions in Madagascar and 1,100 in Mauritius at that date. Its activity there is mainly customer service, not software development.

MaaSil Inc

MaaSil, the publisher of this article, provides consultants based in Madagascar, in a form close to Employer of Record (EoR) arrangements. According to MaaSil, these consultants are 100% integrated into the client's teams. MaaSil handles recruitment, the contract, payroll and HR follow-up; the client directs the assignments day to day.

MaaSil publishes its prices on its Pricing page: from €55 to €100 excl. VAT per day for general profiles (accounting, HR, assistant roles...), or about €1,150 excl. VAT per month. Senior IT developers cost from €120 to €250 excl. VAT per day, or about €2,600 excl. VAT per month. MaaSil reports more than 100 consultants, more than 40 clients and an average assignment length of 3.5 years (why MaaSil).

MaaSil suits French-speaking SMEs, startups and mid-sized companies that want to integrate one or more dedicated staff members, in support functions or IT. It is less suited to very short one-off projects, to multilingual call centres open 24/7 and to needs carried out exclusively in France.
