27 Feb Agency VS Freelancers for setting up your project
Even the top firms in the world sometimes seek help for doing different projects. The question is what to choose in such cases – to give the project to an outsourcing agency or hire a freelancer.
Before making the decision, decide for yourself what’s the point.
If you have a single project and know a great freelancer who comes highly recommended, he/she can get your project done perfectly and the price would be acceptable. However, you may face risk by giving the project to the incompetent specialist.
If you need to achieve a lot of goals, an agency’s services will cost more but they can offer a wider range of skills. A skilled team is always ready to get to work on your project. What is more, the deadlines will most likely be met.
Let’s look a little bit deeper at the 1st option – hiring a freelancer.
As your business aims to change every day and new challenges arise, you have to respond to the market in the shortest possible lead tіmе, you can find a person you need to get the job done. And, of course, it is much cheaper than the agency’s services. But hiring a freelancer has a lot of risks – you can’t say for sure that a person won’t let you down when it goes about meeting the deadlines or quality of the project.
In this regard, agencies are more reliable. Moreover, when you ask the agency for help, you are going to work with a registered company so you have more chances to prove your point in the case when something goes wrong. Also, the 2nd option – giving your project to the agency is better if your project is big and requires knowledge from different spheres because one person can’t be good at many areas, that’s why the team is better in this case. However, while working with agencies be ready to pay more.
