      Python Django Review from Andrew Stetsenko

      We partnered with Flyaps to build the GlossaryTech Chrome Extension from scratch, including the backend for tech terminology analysis. The goal was to help recruiters, sales professionals, and other non-technical specialists in IT quickly understand the technical terms they encounter every day. The first release shipped back in 2017, long before today's AI tools were available off the shelf. Flyaps built a custom tokenization layer on top of NLTK library to resolve the ambiguity problem - distinguishing "Go" the language from "go to the shop," or "Swift" the framework from the adjective, while also correctly recognizing multi-token terms like "Ruby on Rails" or "Amazon Web Services". It was a pragmatic, precise solution that made the extension genuinely usable from day one. The outcomes have validated that early bet. GlossaryTech now holds "Featured" status in the Chrome Web Store, has passed 25,000 downloads, and consistently serves 10,000+ weekly active users and 2,000+ daily active users. For a niche professional tool, that level of organic, sustained engagement is rare - and it traces directly back to the technical foundation Flyaps put in place. Beyond the engineering, what stood out was how Flyaps engaged with the product itself. They contributed to architecture decisions, flagged edge cases early, and treated scope conversations with honesty rather than upsell. Communication was straightforward throughout, deadlines were met, and the codebase has held up well as we've extended the product over time. I'd recommend Flyaps to anyone looking for a partner who combines solid engineering with genuine product thinking. They've been central to GlossaryTech's success and continue to be a team we trust.

      Software Development Review from Dariia Ryzhova

      Our collaboration with Flyaps has lasted for several major projects, of which I personally worked with them on two. I am very satisfied with the level of expertise (both technical and domain), the involvement and responsibility of the teams, and the quality of delivery. We successfully brought 2 major products to life together. Flyaps teams have diverse specializations, so I had the opportunity to attract consultants from different fields: software developers, including high-level architects, DevOps, QA, and business analysts. The teams have a modern technology stack and are experienced in Agile development. This allowed for smooth integration with internal teams and processes. It is also important to note that Flyaps provides technical consulting on demand, and this was very valuable service as well. Overall, I can recommend working with Flyaps as a reliable and high-quality partner.

How to Hire a Staff Augmentation Firm

How do staff augmentation companies benefit your business?

Staff augmentation companies can benefit your business by providing access to vetted global talent, helping you scale teams efficiently, shorten hiring timelines, and move projects forward faster.

They can also reduce overhead costs by up to 40% and give you greater flexibility and control over workflows and delivery.

Over time, this can strengthen business agility and resilience.

According to Deloitte's Global Outsourcing Survey, these are the main reasons for adopting third-party outsourced services:

  • Improved access to talent: 42%
  • Increasing customer demands: 35%
  • Spend optimization: 34%
  • Improved quality/performance: 33%
  • Adoption of global delivery model: 33%

Additionally, industry research reveals that staffing firms account for 40% of the global workforce movement, highlighting the continued role of staff augmentation companies across businesses and borders.

How much do their services cost?

Staff augmentation services cost between $20 and $250+ per hour. The actual price depends on the role, skill level, staff location, team size, contract duration, and engagement model.

Here are the estimated hourly rates for each region:

  Junior roles Senior roles
North America (United States and Canada)

$75-$150

 $120-$250+
Latin America $30-$60 $60-$100+
Western Europe $60-$100 $80-$200+
Eastern Europe $30-$60 $80-$120+
Asia $20-$50  $80-$120

Generally, business process outsourcing roles, like customer service and data entry, are priced lower than IT positions.

For instance, United States BPO providers have an hourly rate of $35-$60, while IT staff augmentation starts at $75-$150 per hour.

What should you look for in a staff augmentation partner?

Look for these signals of trust in a staff augmentation agency to ensure business and project fit:

  • Proven experience in the form of case studies or success stories with clear problem definition, process, and measurable results.
  • Verifiable client reviews from real companies or individuals that help confirm the agency's delivery quality.
  • Long-term client relationships or repeat engagements, indicating consistent performance and reliability.
  • Structured process for talent sourcing, vetting, matching, and client onboarding to reduce the risk of poor fit, delays, or budget overruns.
  • Scalability, with access to a broad pool of pre-vetted professionals who can support changing business needs.
  • Compliance and security standards, including relevant legal, privacy, and data protection requirements such as GDPR, HIPAA readiness, ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and SOC 2 Type II.
  • Cultural alignment with your team, since augmented staff often work closely with internal employees and workflows.

What questions should you ask?

Ask these questions before working with a staff augmentation company to verify credibility and reliability:

Relevant Background

  1. What industries and functions do you specialize in, such as IT, HR, or accounting?
  2. Can you share case studies or past projects similar to our needs? What results did you achieve?
  3. How familiar are you with our industry, market, or business model? Can you provide 3 to 5 client references we can contact?

Services and Processes

  1. How do you source, vet, and qualify candidates before placement?
  2. How do you handle contracts, compliance, and data security?
  3. How do you manage scaling, performance issues, and talent replacement when needed?

Related to Your Project

  1. How quickly can you provide and onboard talent after we submit a request?
  2. What does your onboarding process look like, and what do you need from our team?
  3. How do you measure performance quality and ensure accountability?

How do you choose the best staff augmentation firm for your business?

To choose the best staff augmentation company for your business, start by defining your needs and then compare each provider's capabilities, experience, and delivery model against those requirements. Here are some steps to guide you:

  1. Outline your requirements, including job roles you need to fill, team size, seniority level, contract length, and budget range. Also, define your selection criteria, such as time zone alignment, industry experience, and English proficiency.
  2. Shortlist companies with a proven track record by evaluating their case studies, client references, certifications, and market reputation. Focus on evidence of measurable results, relevant experience, and long-term client relationships.
  3. Request proposals from staff augmentation companies and compare them by pricing structure, contract terms, replacement policies, security practices, and expected outcomes.
  4. Schedule a meeting with your top candidates to understand how they source and vet talent, onboard new members, manage communication, handle compliance, and maintain performance quality over time.
  5. Ask for samples, such as sample candidate profiles, anonymized resumes, or recorded introductions, to further assess talent quality and fit.
  6. Consider a pilot project or a monthly contract before signing a long-term engagement with the company to further evaluate project fit.

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Staff Augmentation Companies

What services do staff augmentation firms typically provide?

Staff augmentation firms provide a range of talent solutions depending on their area of specialization. Here are some of the most common staff augmentation services: 

  • IT staff augmentation: UI/UX designers, software developers, mobile app developers, data analysts, QA testers, cybersecurity specialists, and DevOps engineers 
  • Finance and accounting staffing: Bookkeepers, accountants, financial analysts, and compliance professionals 
  • Creative and marketing staffing: Content writers, graphic designers, social media managers, and performance marketers 
  • Manufacturing and operations staffing: Industrial engineers, quality control inspectors, and supply chain analysts 

Some staff augmentation services also cover strategy consulting or fractional leadership support, such as CFOs, CTOs, or senior operations and manufacturing consultants. 

What is the difference between staff augmentation and outsourcing?

Staff augmentation involves temporarily hiring external skilled professionals to expand your internal team's capacity. These professionals work alongside your in-house staff, follow your processes, and are managed directly by your team. 

Because of this team augmentation, you have more direct control over day-to-day execution, workflows, and priorities while scaling faster. 

Outsourcing, by contrast, involves hiring an external vendor to handle an entire project or business function. In this model, the vendor usually manages the team, processes, and delivery, while your company oversees results and business goals. 

Outsourcing is often a better fit for clearly defined projects or ongoing functions. For example, a company might outsource mobile app development for a food delivery solution to an external custom software development company. 

In short, staff augmentation scales your team, while outsourcing scales your operations as a whole. 

What is the difference between staff augmentation and managed services?

Staff augmentation entails hiring external professionals to fill a skill gap or expand internal team capacity in areas such as your engineering team, marketing team, or HR department. These skilled professionals work as an extension of your dedicated team and follow your company's processes, tools, and management structure.  

On the other hand, managed services involve outsourcing a specific function to a third-party provider that is responsible for delivering and managing that service. This model is especially common in IT, where a provider might take ownership of functions such as cybersecurity, custom software development, or help desk support using its own processes, tools, and service standards.  

The key difference is control: with staff augmentation, you manage the people; with managed services, the provider manages the function. 

When should you hire a staff augmentation company instead of a full-time employee?

The right choice depends on your hiring timeline, budget, need for specialized skills, and whether the role is temporary or long-term. 

Consider hiring a staff augmentation company if: 

  • You need to scale your team quickly based on seasonal demand, project spikes, or changing workloads. 
  • You need specialized expertise that is not available in-house or is difficult to hire locally. 
  • You want more staffing flexibility without making a long-term hiring commitment. 
  • You need support for a defined project or short- to mid-term initiative. 

Consider hiring a full-time employee if: 

  • You need someone in a permanent role with long-term ownership and continuity. 
  • The role requires deep knowledge of your brand, internal culture, or business context. 
  • The position involves highly sensitive responsibilities that require close internal oversight. 

How long does the typical onboarding process take for augmented staff?

Typically, the onboarding process for augmented staff takes 90 days. However, some companies offer 14 days, while others may require 6 months. 

The actual timeline will depend on the role, level of seniority, and complexity of your systems and processes. 

In many cases, initial onboarding can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. However, full ramp-up may take longer, especially for highly specialized or leadership roles. 

For instance, a junior bookkeeper may only need 7-14 days for onboarding. By contrast, a senior finance consultant or CFO-level advisor working with proprietary systems and cross-functional processes may need several weeks or even a few months to fully ramp up. 

What industries are seeing the most growth in staff augmentation?

According to research by the QX Global Group, the industries seeing the highest growth in staff augmentation are:  

  • Locum tenens: 12% 
  • Education: 10% 
  • Engineering: 3% 
  • Retained search: 5%
