<h4><strong>Outsourcing is a form of collaboration where an external company is involved in development instead of an in-house team. It can help with the entire development process or supplement where needed. When does outsourcing pay off, and what are its benefits? That's exactly what we'll look at in today's article.</strong></h4>

<div class="ql-block" style="direction: ltr;" data-block-id="block-086c47dd-8b0f-48a3-9e56-98523001237d">You can set up the collaboration during outsourcing to exactly fit your needs. There&rsquo;s no need to worry about employment contracts, setting up hours, etc. A fixed salary employee will cost you the same amount monthly, regardless of the output. Thus, outsourcing is worthwhile if you do not plan to maintain an expansive team of developers in your company. In terms of scalability, outsourcing allows you to increase hours when needed.</div>
