In-house vs agency vs remote hire: speed, cost, control

• In-house: maximum control and cross-team access; higher fixed costs and longer time-to-hire.
• Agency: fast kickoff and breadth of skills; less day-to-day control and packaged pricing.
• Remote full-time via DigiWorks: 70% average cost savings compared to in-house, with vetted specialists matched in as little as 7 days and seamless onboarding for your stack and workflows.
