The rise and rise of the on-demand workforce

In more recent times we’ve seen an increase in on-demand consumer based services, such as Uber, TaskRabbit and HomeJoy. According to a study conducted by software company Intuit, more than 40% of the US workforce will be freelance by 2020, largely due to mobile technology.
At Bugwolf, we have recognised the change which is taking place and we’ve built a SaaS platform and vetted marketplace of on-demand elite software testers. We are not about putting bums on seats, but about providing talented teams of quality assurance professionals that can be scaled up and down as needed, with no lengthy contracts.
By giving our clients access to an on-demand contingent workforce, they reduce the cost of their testing by up to 50% - plus testers have more flexibility about when and where they want to work. This creates a significantly more enjoyable work option than traditional employment models, leading to improved satisfaction and better results for our customers.
