    please post your experiences with OUTSOURCE companys

    I need to know your personal experiences with the outsource companys floating around.

    On a side note, yes I am shopping for an outsource company to do some bs work I need done montly, BUT and this is big.. You might want to read this.

    If you work for an outsource company and spam this thread with your company, or info about your company I WILL NOT USE YOU.

    I am looking for experiences of other webmasters.

    Please post if you have any.

    Thank you.

    crazy.

          Any and all experience I have with outsource companies ranks between "awful" and "clusterfuck".

              yeh i had an experience with one about a week ago. a website designer, it took him a wholes days pay to come up with a website for me, i said ill have it, but he hadnt even done the html, i wasnt happy one bit. he said 3 more days at $50 it may be ready. they are called ProAdultoutsourcing!

              But i mean they were nice enough, but im not going to fall in a bloody trap.

                  most of those posting here (those companies) are bullshit, amateur and unprofesssional... particularly those who offer some webmaster or whatever for a monthly rate. UNLESS you are just looking for simple design work, they should be avoided in my opinion.

                  typically, when you start talking to them you will see right away that they are much less concerned with your needs, whether or not they can fulfill those needs or if they can really help you... than they are with trying to sell you right away on something you might not need, before they even really have a serious conversation about it.

                  its annoying... some of these guys have zero business experience or business sense... they are just cowboys who like the whores in the philippines, want to live there and realized as an after thought that programmers were cheaper there and that they might be able to turn it into a business.

                  BTW... i'm a dick anyway, so take it all with a grain of salt. ... but the simple test is always just to ask questions and see how concerned THEY ARE with understanding your needs and how hard they are trying to. Even then, you are still basically hiring a person that you know nothing about... and being expected to pay for it without the benefit of a resume', referrences and an interview - which is crazy... even if its cheaper. wasted time and money is still wasted time and money.

                      these were the last idiots i spoke to about some simple, ongoing things that i was considering hiring someone to do fulltime. never again.

                                          Just find a local college student who will work for cheap and you can hunt down in person if necessary.

                                          I've never worked with an outsource company, but my experiences from working with consultants / outside hired help wasn't that great. Mainly because they charged too much and it took way too long to explain what needed to be done.
                                          Your post count means nothing.

                                                  their english sucked and they didnt work the same hours as me. this was outsourcing canada/us -> durkadurkastan etc. us -> canada used to be a decent compromise but not with the current exchange rate.

                                                      I had one from Durkadurkstan as well... Great for a month and then the shit started. I have bounced around through a few of them, may use one again to submit galleries... maybe not. Was about to pull the trigger on one and my friend started having problems with them so.....

                                                                              What ever your experence with them has been. Id like to get a general over all feel of what everyone thinks on many levels.

                                                                              For the sake of arguement, lets say call center.

                                                                                      Nothing against you or anything, but I am looking for people who arent as well seated with the owners of the companys.

                                                                                      Virtual pc storage could make you a fortune if you do it correct.

I found them highly professional, Greg runs a tight ship and will always work with you and your worker. I think what a lot of ppl think is that u can just start from fresh and expect your worker to be running 100% from the get go. This is not the case and you do have to work with your worker for some time to get what u need from them, and basically train them to do things the way u like to do them but I am sure this is the case with all outsourcing corps. Anyway, thats my experience, very good customer relations from xxx and I was lucky to have a hard working worker at the time, so that helps I'm sure.

                                                                                                      You can get it ploughing a paddock, you can get it makin some porn sites, matter of fact I've got it now.

                                                                                                                          before when I only had a few sites, all was fine, but now that I am closer to 100 sites, it has become alot of daily work & I am considering outsourcing some of that grunt work..

                                                                                                                          Over time, I have seen many compliments & kudos to http://www.webmasterlabor.com .. you may have seen posts from Gene, aka $5 submissions..

                                                                                                                          from reading his posts, and his replies, you can tell alot about his personal character. His character traits from what I have seen on this board are that of an honest person, one that has high ethical standards, an excellent sense for business & loyalty to his clients.

                                                                                                                          No, i have never hired them or used them, (yet), but bet your ass that when I am ready, 100% sure they will be the ones to earn my business....

                                                                                                                          I'm sure others will post great things to say about them too,,,,

                                                                                                                              dealing with DSL outsourced support, I got even further aggravated, these fucking morons reading from a book telling me my browser is corrupt when I can't connect to the net... what a joke...

GET FUCKED OUTSOURCE TODAY.. if you think the few bucks will help your business grow, you're missing the 150,000 people who might be using your service but now think you suck and if you are not in a monopoly start filing for chapter 7

                                                                                                                                          i had an email at 5am that it was ready, and the quality of their designer/flash guy was top notch!

If you need professionalism, you are much better off with a domestic coder, or you will turn into a nervwreck in 2 weeks. Like someone already said - their biz experience, level of english and ways of organizing things, is often beyond ridiculous. If you find one good employee for every 15 you hire - consider yourself lucky!

I paid him and his staff a visit in Manila 1 - 2 weeks ago and they run a tight ship. Fingerprint scanning at the entrance, good equipment and good working envirorment. I havent got any staff with Greg or any other outsourcing company at the moment just some freelancers but I am in the process of getting some staff from Greg now.

                                                                                                                                                              I've used xxxoutsourcing previously. I found them highly professional, Greg runs a tight ship and will always work with you and your worker.
                                                                                                                                                              I've been using these guys for about 4 months now and I'm basically really happy, though its been a bit of a learning curve. As stated elswhere, don't expect anyone to working at 100% the day they start, and do factor in that you'll need to spend quality time briefing your worker - I have to admit, I've found that aspect hard. In my case the time shift works in my favour, I get up early and have a chat on ICQ with him before my regular business day starts.

                                                                                                                                                              As briefing is so important, we started out with the repetitive tasks he could crack on with every day if I wasn't about to add input and built up from there; The guy we hired to build and submit galleries is now writing some simple but very nicely coded PHP. I'm happy and hopefully he is too.

                                                                                                                                                              Don't expect miracles and choose the tasks for them carefully would be my advice, but theres no doubt, they're an asset.

                                                                                                                                                              BTW one of the hidden benefits was how Greg handled staff turnover - We're on our second guy but the new one was hired and brought up to speed so that hand over was utterly smooth, try doing that when your local college kid helper just ups and leaves!

After I got to know him, he filled me in on what they paid him for the stuff I had him doing. Pure nothing really. Guy went and got another job.

                                                                                                                                                                              before when I only had a few sites, all was fine, but now that I am closer to 100 sites, it has become alot of daily work & I am considering outsourcing some of that grunt work..

                                                                                                                                                                              Over time, I have seen many compliments & kudos to http://www.webmasterlabor.com .. you may have seen posts from Gene, aka $5 submissions..

His character traits from what I have seen on this board are that of an honest person, one that has high ethical standards, an excellent sense for business & loyalty to his clients.
