Alcor is a reliable partner that meets our hiring needs. We finally hired experienced software engineers in Eastern Europe with strong tech skills and business acumen. Account Managers are awesome!
Alcor is a reliable long-term partner that remains mindful of deadlines and business priorities. Their efforts have fostered a stable foundation for our R&D center and its operations in Ukraine. They feature an extensive team of creative problem-solvers that aim to provide flawless service.
Ongoing team management is easy and effortless. They’ve solved every problem we’ve faced, even crazy things like buying certified hardware in the middle of nowhere in Bali and shipping it to the EU.
We wanted to switch from our outsourcing provider, and Alcor has become really game-changing for us. Within a mere 6 months, we got a fully-fledged team of 30 engineers in our own R&D office. 20 more later.
Alcor’s R&D solution eclipses full-cycle recruitment, EOR service, and operational support for our offshore team. Their ‘all-in-one place’ approach is far more cost-effective than I could’ve imagined.
I value their commitment to going the extra mile. We evolved from an outstaff project into an independent company, and Alcor’s support was crucial. They hired and onboarded 15+ professionals for us.
Thanks to Alcor, we hired four engineers and a designer that strengthened our team. Besides stellar recruitment, Alcor flawlessly handled our payroll. Their approach was seamless and swift.
We managed to more than double the team size within a year and kept active feedback channel with Alcor team.
Expanding our engineering team outside the US with Alcor was a game-changer! They found 15 talented developers and provided seamless EOR & operational support. Great responsiveness to our needs!
Alcor helped us hire the top 5% of tech talent while building our employer brand. They were proactive, never compromised on quality, and delivered. Three years later, our hires are still thriving!

Own R&D Center vs Staff Augmentation in Ukraine
Own R&D Center
- Silicon Valley-caliber talent We recruit 30+ elite senior developers in 3 months. All decisions regarding the team are up to you.
- Transparent pricing Detailed invoices help you be in control of your finances. Plus, your tech R&D team is x2 more affordable than an external one.
- Your team & branding You get a tech team with shared values for innovation and growth – 90% retention rate & an average tenure of 2.5 years.
- No setup & buyout fees No setup fee is needed to start building your software R&D team. Plus, there is no buyout process – your team now, free insourcing after.
- Intellectual property under control With direct agreements, you fully own your product and its source code, keeping unique expertise in-house.
Staff Augmentation
- Junior/middle-level talent You can’t control the quality of talent. Plus, with planned moves to new customers after 1 year, your A-players will be snatched away.
- High markups Some providers charge up to 50% of talent compensation to earn more without the client knowing about it.
- Not your brand & practices Developers work under your provider’s brand. Thus, there’s no room for your corporate culture, policies, and direct oversight.
- High setup & buyout fees Most vendors require contractual & financial obligations first. Then, you pay 20% of a developer’s annual compensation in buy-out fees.
- Intellectual property risks IP rights over your product initially belong to developers of your provider. You get minimum security and a tedious transfer process.
FAQ
Is it beneficial to use IT staff augmentation services in Ukraine?
You will benefit from IT staff augmentation services if you seek to enhance your in-house capabilities with the tech expertise of an extended team in Ukraine at lower costs. However, this model is short-lived, so if you’re looking for long-term product-based models, consider not only temporary cooperation with an extended software team in Ukraine but also other options, such as a software R&D center.
What are the common challenges or pitfalls associated with using an tech team extension in Ukraine?
The primary flaws of tech staff augmentation stem from the need for cooperation through an offshoring or nearshoring third party. Since software engineers inside an augmented tech team in Ukraine work for your provider, they may view your project as a one-time task and not feel a strong sense of loyalty to it. Additionally, you will be less engaged in their management and will have to pay buyout fees to your augmented development team provider in Ukraine, should you decide to hire them.
What are the alternatives to IT staff augmentation?
A software R&D center is your all-in-one solution to hire Silicon Valley-caliber tech professionals, manage payroll & accounting, navigate legal & compliance, get equipment procurement, and lease an office with your reliable provider like Alcor. Other models include software outsourcing, managed services, and a dedicated team.
