How is this different from Upwork or Toptal?

Unlike freelance marketplaces, Scrums.com provides platform-managed talent integrated with SEOP. You get real-time delivery visibility, analytics, performance tracking, and ongoing support, not just a developer profile. Our developers are fully vetted, onboarded within 21 days, and embedded in your workflows with team lead support (for Dedicated Teams).

What's the difference between Staff Augmentation and Dedicated Teams?

Staff Augmentation provides individual developers you manage directly, ideal for filling skill gaps or scaling quickly. Dedicated Teams provide cross-functional teams (engineers, QA, design, etc.) with a team lead included, ideal for long-term product development or building full products.

Do I need a Scrums.com Plan to hire talent?

Yes. Hiring talent (Staff Augmentation and Dedicated Teams) are usage-based services that require an active SEOP Plan subscription. Plans start with the Standard tier and unlock access to the platform, talent marketplace, and all usage-based services.

What if I need to scale down?

Staff Augmentation is fully flexible, you can scale up or down monthly with no penalty. Dedicated Teams have quarterly or annual commitments, but we work with you to adjust team size at renewal periods.
