Two Paths to Scale
When you lack in-house talent, you have two options. Staff Augmentation involves renting developers to join your existing team. Project Outsourcing involves handing the entire project (PM, QA, Devs) to an external agency.
When to choose which?
If you have an in-house CTO and just need more hands on keyboards, choose Staff Augmentation. If you have no technical leadership and need an end-to-end product built, choose Project Outsourcing.
