Outsource Ruby on Rails Development with Confidence

Fed up with ROR Agencies and Freelancers, who Overpromise and Underdeliver? 

Why Founders Are Frustrated with Agencies and Freelancers

  • "I did this somewhat successfully but only because I was the lead developer. I’m not sure this works if you’re not a developer working on the project. You need a good technical cofounder if technology is going to be your company’s core competency.

    Rule of thumb, it’s very hard to hire freelance developers. You have to find very honest, organized people who are effective communicators and happen to be great developers as well. Most people you find are going to lack in some area that prevents them from being successful in a remote/early stage startup (even if they’re great developers!)."

    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Freelancers
  • "I've hired many developers before on Upwork and it was mostly a hit or miss. There are some agencies in India and Pakistan posing as individual freelancers in US and Europe, mostly through a proxy person doing the bidding. Even when you're paying high rates, the work ends up being passed off to some amateur who's getting paid barely $3–5/hr. In a few cases, I've had to cancel the contract right after the 1st or 2nd day after seeing absolute junk code.

    A lot of these freelancers assume clients are clueless and that we're not gonna look at the commit history or even be able to evaluate the quality of the work.

    That being said, there are really awesome developers out there as well so be ready to burn a small amount of money to find a good developer. It's also worth noting that many developers are just moonlighting as freelancers and they may abandon projects mid-way if their day job's workload becomes too much to manage, so have a backup plan."

    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Freelancers
  • "How do you find GOOD freelancers? Even on Upwork, a lot of the listings that seem to be a one-person show end up being agencies.

    And for a lot of indie devs (or designers), I’ve seen a lot of them just rush to get the job done without thinking through problems enough. That’s just my limited experience though."

    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Freelancers
  • "With freelancers you will have to do the heavy lifting of coordination between designers & developers. You will be like a product owner & manager. It’s not that complicated but if you haven’t done it before, be ready for some on-the-go tough experience."

    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Freelancers
  • "Working with an agency is a great opportunity to learn about how to work with or avoid organizations that are incentivized to:

    • Inflate costs
    • Add engineering complexity
    • Bill by the hour
    • Build in a language/framework that you or your team don’t understand
    • Avoid meeting the needs of your customer"
    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Agencies
  • "Breadcrumbing through extending deadlines and letting the inexperienced ones work on your project and charge you for it. And overall they’ll make sht up sooo conveniently tragic that you’ll be forced to say yes due to the incurred loss of backing off the initial deal."

    Reddit User's Experience Hiring Agencies
  • "The success rate is relatively low. In India, there is a lot of over-promise and under-delivery. Ideally, it should be the opposite. This is not just true of foreign projects. I know many people here locally who hired an agency and then repented of their mistake.

    I used to work as a CTO, and we used to outsource some development work to local companies. There was so much notoriety. Companies would fake resumes and even change people’s LinkedIn profiles to make junior developers look like senior developers and inflate their billing. We then started doing third-party verifications at our own cost & black-listed a few agencies."

Why Agency and Freelance Hiring Rarely Delivers the Desired Results

We Showed You the Problem. Now, Here’s Our Solution

We Understand Your Hesitation to Outsource

 

Outsourcing developers for the first time can be nerve-wracking. You need someone who can take responsibility for their work so you’re not stuck managing day to day tasks.

We know the stakes are high!

Agencies in the market will ignore culture fit as being trivial, but we know a developer’s work ethic, communication, and team engagement are what truly drive project success.

What Challenges Can You Expect When Outsourcing a Ruby on Rails Developer?

  • Developers Who Think in Silos

    Most developers focus only on technical requirements, but your business needs someone who can balance technical skills and align with your business vision.

  • Differentiating Good Tech From Lousy Tech

    Tech professionals can spot inexperienced developers in a second, but non-tech clients often can't. Be cautious of agencies that present junior developers as seniors.

  • Developers Who Don’t Follow Best Practices

    Some developers focus only on meeting deadlines while neglecting best practices. Long-term, this can result in a poor foundation for your application riddled with errors.

  • Developers Who Can’t Communicate with Clarity

    A common outsourcing challenge is hiring developers who lack English proficiency and cultural understanding. This can be a major barrier, causing miscommunication and constant delays. 

You Can Get Ahead of These Problems By

  • Hiring Developers Who Don’t Need to Be Micromanaged

    Bring in experienced developers with industry-specific experience in your business. 

    So you can have more freedom to focus on your core responsibilities.

  • A Good Hire Is One That Is Holistic

    See if they understand the objective behind the project. 

    Are they interested in adding value to your business or just getting their paycheck? 

    You don't want to hire a developer who leaves you high and dry for a higher paycheck. 

  • Prioritize Open Communication When Outsourcing

    Unless this isn’t your first rodeo with outsourcing, it can be a pretty overwhelming process.

    Ensure your project manager manages your project with due diligence and gives you honest updates.
