This article is a guest article by Briskstar Technologies - at the end of this article, we add our thoughts too.
Thank you for showing interest in reading this article and thinking about your business to make it more profitable with new working models and the new technology partner.
Many experienced within the technology sector understand how difficult it can be to put together a team of top talent. We can’t just walk over to Silicon Valley to find the best developer for your project(s).
On-boarding development has become unaffordable. The costs are high, losing capital to inexperienced developers with miscellaneous costs included. If you’re looking for extremely high-quality engineers one can go to Toptal or a similar assorted developers communities. (At a minimum rate of $70/hour, the maximum rate can be astronomical).
Quality is important, but at what price?
Offshore outsourcing can look overwhelming - that’s why we’re here. We will help you find the best-relevant resource or a team that matches your goals, your budget, and your timeline.
We have software developers ready to get started on your project today.
If you’re just beginning to build your team, you’ll know that in-house development costs a lot of money and time to put together. The business chooses outsourcing in place of insourcing can bring down their overhead:
Accounting
Software
Taxes
Design
SEO
Content Creation
and so much more!
Again, When it comes to building apps, most people assume that a freelance web/app developer is the best choice. The cost can seem tempting and the freelancers seem to be qualified.
So you may be asking, "Should I just use a job portal like Upwork?"
The short answer is NO!
If you have done any research into freelance job boards like Upwork or Freelancer, you’ll know there are plenty of horror stories out there.
In most of these freelance groups, many developers will post their un-verified qualifications, forcing clients to pay for a poor job because the qualifications didn’t line up.
With an offshore outsourced team working for you, you’ll be working with a trusted and verified team of developers.
There are plenty of advantages to outsourcing versus a using job board, such as:
A dedicated team who won’t disappear on you when things get critical. On a job board, you may be held at ransom if your freelancer disappears on you.
A team has multiple skill sets. They can brainstorm and problem-solve together. Freelancers work alone.
A team can help you balance costs by hiring a more senior developer to lay the foundation + a junior coder + a quality assurance officer. Your very own experienced team.
A team gives you access to onboarding, daily meetings, or check-ins. With a freelancer, you’re at their mercy.
Offshore outsourcing can be simple. See, what our client says for us:
"Briskstar Technologies LLP was instrumental in saving a software project that was costing me tens of thousands of dollars. They immediately rescued the project in a very short time frame, saving me a lot of time, money, and effort."

Thanks to Briskstar for putting there thoughts on the challenges software enterprises find when deciding whether to outsource or insource, and the additional challenge of hiring freelancers. There are a couple of things we want to add from our experience of working with freelancers and their platforms.
We at Info Rhino do use logo designers, and some marketing sources on these freelancer platforms. There are two main challenges we find with these platforms (not legal advice).
At Info Rhino, we are often faced with highly challenging requirements from our clients. Often, our unique skills focus on building solutions that are reusable and will help the client beyond the original application use requested. Our experience of outsourcing to freelancers is generally the case;
The only time it makes sense, as far as we can see, is if you are prepared to pay a freelancer over a period of time, giving them very clear requirements on what is required. The platform the freelancer is sourced through must have as few complications as possible. Even if both these conditions are satisfied most clients will find it hard to scale that work, and testing the quality of the solution will become hard.
Briskstar focuses on having technologists across different technology stacks. Info Rhino focuses on having strength in depth across a number of stacks, but will engage former colleagues and partners to add strength in depth to the solution. These are both viable alternatives.
If you are a freelancer, do contact either Info Rhino or Briskstar to put your ideas across, we welcome dialogue.
