RentACoder – The Safer Way To Outsource
RentACoder is a global software and development marketplace.
It brings programmers and buyers together in a safe and
encouraging environment. While the Internet is viewed as
offering the greatest potential for both sides of the
transaction, it is fraught with dangers. Freelance coders
often find themselves committing to projects and not being
paid the final fee, while buyers may be faced with
unresponsive buyers that disappear once an initial deposit
has been paid.
Financial protection is offered through a secure Escrow
payment system. Once a coder is selected for a project, the
associated funds are then placed in the RentACoder Escrow
account. Only upon satisfactory completion of the project is
this fee released to the coder. If they don't complete the
work, or submit substandard work, then they don't get paid;
the buyer receives the project fee back from the Escrow
account.
One of the biggest potential hazards of hiring a freelance
programmer is a lack of communications. Some of the most
gifted programmers in the world fail to regularly
communicate or provide adequate project updates. For
projects worth $150 or more, service providers are required
to post a weekly status report every Friday. The project
board is also used as a communication board so that if a
dispute arises, the lack of communication can be cited as a
major reason for the problem.
When required, the RentACoder team will intervene. They will
assess the evidence to hand and form a decision using this
information. Typically, this means checking for any
communication, ensuring that status reports were filed, and
determining whether the project was completed or not.
The secure environment offered by RentACoder enables
programmers to get on with what they do best and also
enables buyers to hire skilled programmers without fear of
losing their project fee.
