With that being said, given our knowledge and expertise in the industry, you won’t be finding our name listed here. Are we one of the best staff augmentation companies around? Of course! But we’d rather shine the spotlight on others to try and keep things balanced. We can’t work with everyone and we want to make sure that at the very least, our readers will have a bit more information about the industry, and what to expect so that they can find the right fit for their staff augmentation needs. If we aren’t fortunate enough to work with you, we are sure that you’ll be able to find a suitable partner among our picks for the top 30 IT staff augmentation companies in the world.
Before you dive into that list, let us clarify our methodology. We believe that there are no inconsequential things when you’re choosing a staff augmentation company. We’ve carried out our own research where we took into consideration the following criteria:
An overall score in our ranking is an average score based on the following scores:
Company size score 1-3. When you choose a staff augmentation company, you may come across large and mid-sized companies as well as small studios. It’s up to you whether you want to work with a smaller or larger provider. Although smaller companies tend to be more flexible in adapting to the client’s needs, large and mid-sized companies may be better suited and more adept at filling your needs. In our opinion, mid-sized companies can help you strike the right balance, thus, in our list, you’ll find a scale of 1 to 3 points where:
Affordability score 1-3. The average developer’s rate per hour plays a great role in choosing a suitable provider in terms of budget.
Service package score 1-3. Some IT staff augmentation companies focus on adding developers specializing in generic technologies, such as JavaScript, Python, PHP, etc, while others can cover the need for in-demand technologies (Big Data, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Cloud, DevOps, and IoT). However, some staff augmentation companies go beyond a pure staff augmentation model, providing outsourcing services and even creating their own solutions/products.
Clientele 1-3. Clients are the biggest asset of any staff augmentation service company. With that in mind, we used a verified score from Clutch.com to estimate the reputation of the company in question. On our list, you won’t find companies with a client score lower than 4.7 out of 5, which is a testament of the fact that we’ve chosen truly the top staff augmentation companies.
