The traditional approach towards outsourcing a Drupal development project may not give you the desired results. Traditionally, companies and entrepreneurs have been outsourcing Drupal development to freelancers and project outsourcing companies in an effort to reduce cost. However, in several cases the results have been far from satisfactory, to say the least. A closer look at the traditional model of outsourcing shows quite a few inherent flaws in it. Particularly in case of Drupal development, the loopholes of the traditional outsourcing model have almost always let the client down. The perils of outsourcing a Drupal development project to a freelancer or a project outsourcing company can be detrimental to the completion of the project.
Perils of outsourcing Drupal development to a freelancer
Outsourcing a Drupal development project to a freelancer can significantly reduce the cost. However, there are too many risks associated with this model. A freelance Drupal developer works in a very casual set-up and handles a number of clients at the same time. Therefore, the security of your data is at the greatest risk when you outsource your Drupal development to a freelancer. Communicating with a freelancer can be a real pain for a client. It is the freelancer who calls the shots, so far as interaction with the client is concerned. In such a scenario, giving and taking updates on the project becomes almost impossible. Due to lack of communication between you and the freelancer, your project may take forever to get completed. Therefore, the perils of outsourcing Drupal development to a freelancer are too many and too complicated to handle.
Drawbacks of outsourcing Drupal development to a project outsourcing company
Choosing a project outsourcing company to do your Drupal development is obviously better than hiring a freelancer; however it is again not the ultimate solution besides being quite expensive as well. By outsourcing your work to a project outsourcing company, you no doubt choose a more professional set-up for your Drupal development. However, by doing so, you also lose control of your project. In this case, it is the project outsourcing company which calls the shots. You hardly get a chance to get your say incorporated in the project until you get the end product. Besides that, every company has its own work culture and that culture affects your Drupal development to a great extent. More importantly, in the process of knowledge transfer (from you to the project manager and from the project manager to the rest of the team), chances of mis-communication and misrepresentation of ideas are high, leading to future glitches. Therefore, the end product that you get from a project outsourcing company may not be exactly what you wanted.
