IdeasUnlimited Reviews & Testimonials
Kimberly Weber President and Founder at Iowa Home Care
5.0★
BPO Review from Kimberly Weber
We brought on IdeasUnlimited to help with our back office work so our nurses and staff could stay focused on clients. They handle scheduling, reports, emails, and client inquiries, and they picked up new tasks fast with very little training. The time we save is huge, and it makes our daily operations smoother. What I like most is they really try to fit into how we work, so it feels like they are part of our own team. The onboarding took a little time, but once we got set, everything has been running well.
Miriam Woodward Founder President and CEO at De Dios Consulting
5.0★
BPO Review from Miriam Woodward
IdeasUnlimited has been a dependable partner for us at De Dios Consulting. They handle our scheduling, emails, research, and reports, which freed up time for us to focus on clients. What I value most is how quickly they adapt and how much they feel like part of our team. The only challenge was getting them up to speed on a few tools, but once they learned, everything has been smooth.
Jeffrey Bill Founder & CEO at Sunrise Treatment Center
5.0★
Medical Review from Jeffrey Bill
Working with IdeasUnlimited has been a real help for us at Sunrise Treatment Center. We brought them in to handle our medical billing so our staff could focus more on patients. They learned our system fast and cut down on errors which meant we got paid quicker and had better cash flow. Communication has always been easy and they adjust when we need something changed. What stood out most is how detailed and reliable they are. Nothing is ever perfect but they came pretty close.

Tifiny Swedensky Owner at Sharp Cookie, LLC
4.5★
Web Development Review from Tifiny Swedensky
Agency Partner built us a pretty website... but it was slow and not technically optimized for SEO. The backend was very buggy, with many "useless" sections in the WordPress dashboard. I am a WordPress developer, but I am also the company's marketing director so we chose to have the site developed by an outside company. I spent approximately 20 hours working on the backend removing useless "features" and optimizing the site to pass the Core Web Vitals. It should've been a huge red flag when the company wouldn't show us the backend before launch. Additionally, when they launched the site they "no-indexed" the entire website! Recently, I sent a ticket to support to fix 404 pages. After getting no response for several days, I went into the site and fixed the error myself. They had the audacity to send me a "we fixed the error" email 24 hours after we fixed the issues ourselves! If you are looking for a well-built site, look elsewhere. This company is only good for pretty site that loads slow and is bogged down with junk. The company reached out and heard my complaints. There's not a lot they can do to make this right (since most of the work they left undone was finished by me), but at least they listened. They extended our site warranty to help fix any outstanding issues. I'm adjusting my rating to three-stars.

Logo Design Review from Alex Adamez
Great service, fast and friendly. They were referred to me by a business colleague. I used their graphic design service to do my logo. I had a design that I created and wanted them to replicate. They also provided several other options for me to consider & compare. The turn-around time for them to complete was fast, just a couple of days. Will definitely have them assist on my web page

Jessica Burrows's Review Sourced from Google
We originally had a great experience with this company, but since the change in ownership things have gone downhill significantly. What was once a reliable, locally managed service is now managed out of state, and none of the original staff remain. Over the past 6–8 months, our law firm has experienced countless issues while trying to transition away from their services, which has been an exhausting and frustrating process.As a small business, we value dependable partnerships and consistent communication—qualities that unfortunately no longer exist here. I hope sharing this helps others make an informed decision.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About IT Outsourcing Companies
What services do IT outsourcing firms provide?
IT outsourcing companies provide on-demand services for network security, infrastructure management, disaster recovery, cloud services, data storage, general technical support, and sometimes, software development. The service entails hiring an external managed service provider (MSP) to handle various IT-related tasks and operate as an extension to the in-house team. Â
The following IT services are commonly outsourced:Â Â
Technical support Â
Data security (security audits, malware protection, data backup and recovery)Â Â
Tech infrastructure planning Â
Helpdesk Â
Application, software, database, and custom platform development Â
Network management Â
Web development/web hosting Â
Telecommunications Â
Infrastructure – hardware, software, network installation and support Â
Data center management Â
Data storageÂ
What are the different types of IT outsourcing?
When considering IT outsourcing service providers, businesses can choose based on location or collaborating model. Â
Location-based IT outsourcing Â
Offshore outsourcing: Relaying IT tasks to IT providers in distant countries to take advantage of lower labor costs.Â
Nearshore outsourcing: Sending IT-related work to a company that shares a similar time zone or is geographically close.Â
Onshore outsourcing: Outsourcing a third-party service provider located in the same country. Â
Model-based IT outsourcingÂ
Staff augmentation: Hiring external IT specialists to join the in-house team temporarily and fill skill gaps without full recruitment.Â
Dedicated team: Assigning a dedicated team that works exclusively for the contracting company.Â
Managed services: Contracting a third-party company to provide network management services including call centers, network monitoring, and more.Â
How much do IT outsourcing service providers charge for their services?
IT outsourcing service providers charge from $15 to $200+ per hour, depending on the services and the provider's location. When considering the cost-to-quality-ratio, businesses commonly hire Eastern European IT outsourcing firms, particularly from Poland, Lithuania, Romania, and Bulgaria. Here’s how other regions compare:Â
RegionÂ
Average hourly rateÂ
North AmericaÂ
$100 to $200Â
Western Europe
$80 to $150
Eastern EuropeÂ
$30 to $70
South Asia
$20 to $50
Southeast AsiaÂ
$15 to $40Â
Latin America
$25 to $60
Â
What is the difference between IT consulting and IT outsourcing?
In simple terms, the difference between IT consulting and IT outsourcing is that consulting helps you decide what needs to be done, while IT outsourcing companies do it for you.Â
An IT consulting firm studies the IT infrastructure, identifies problems, checks for vulnerabilities, and recommends what systems, tools, or processes you should use. By contrast, an IT outsourcing company takes over specific work, such as managing infrastructure, maintaining software, handling support, or running day-to-day IT operations.Â
What industries hire most IT outsourcing firms?
The BSFI (banking, financial services, and insurance) sector outsources IT services the most. The majority of institutions in this vertical have a dedicated IT outsourcing firm that handles their software and cloud maintenance. Â
Following as a close second are healthcare, retail, and eCommerce verticals. Businesses across these sectors hire IT specialists to accelerate their omnichannel, mobile, and personalization initiatives. Â
