Outsourcing and outstaffing are options whether you need one part-time developer or dozens of developers. Projects requiring only a few hours a week, or short-term one-off tasks are better sourced through sites like Upwork.
Software development favors long-term assignments. It’s much easier for developers who wrote the code to make changes to it, to upgrade it, insert new features, etc. Teams with high turnover rates inherently suffer from inefficiency (3-6 months for new developers to learn the code) while introducing higher levels of code complexity (impacting quality, decreasing productivity, increasing software maintenance costs).
Ukrainian developers have a lower turnover rate than most European and US-based developers. When working with a staffing agency, like PerceptionBox, you don’t have to worry about direct costs of finding replacements. We aim for high-retention, but if someone leaves, we’ll find a replacement with the same skills for you immediately. Recruiting and replacement costs for most companies tend to run about a third of the developer’s annual salary.
