Outsourcing... again (can't edit the other one)

The Outsourcing Bunny says YES to OUTSOURCING!
César's article:
The Article!
The article, which is small because it doesn't talk about a specific experience like many other articles (but talks more in a general way), gives some statistics about outsourcing success in organizations. It says that in the survey it is proved that with this method, things have nowhere to go but UP. "This survey which collated responses from nearly 700 organizations from 32 countries proves that the only path open to this industry goes forward." The article claims that services in oursourcing companies and stuff have improved and gotten better over time, in contrary to belief that outsourcing is just making more problems. Increased competitiveness!
I don't see why would this be bad.

The Outsourcing Bunny sez yez!
Toña's article:
The Article!
Outsourcing refers to a company that contracts with another company to provide services that might otherwise be performed by in-house employees. These jobs are handled by separate companies that specialize in each service, and are often located overseas.
There are many reasons that companies outsource various jobs, but the most prominent advantage seems to be the fact that it often saves money. Many of the companies that provide outsourcing services are able to do the work for considerably less money, as they don't have to provide benefits to their workers, and have fewer overhead expenses to worry about.
Outsourcing also allows companies to focus on other business issues while having the details taken care of by outside experts. Plus, if a company is looking to expand, outsourcing is a cost-effective way to start building foundations in other countries.
There are some disadvantages to outsourcing as well. One of these is that outsourcing often eliminates direct communication between a company and its clients. This prevents a company from building solid relationships with their customers, and often leads to dissatisfaction on one or both sides. There is also the danger of not being able to control some aspects of the company, as outsourcing may lead to delayed communications and project implementation.

We are in favor of outsourcing so...
Here's a video of some guy talking positively about it:

he explains everything a little further :)
