OUTSOURCING
Have a project that you need to be done, yet don't have IT department of your own? Outsourcing is your solution. We will help you formalize your project requirements or business vision and turn them into a working product.
TURNKEY PROJECTS
Turnkey project is similar to outsourcing. However, here you won't need to spend your time looking for designers and whoever else by yourself while we just do the coding. Instead, we become the one time stop for you: you tell us what you want and we take it from there, coordinating our work with coders, digital agencies, designers, and others.

WWW.GROSSUM.COM
CONs
PROs
We are a small company and might not have necessary specialists right away
We look for professionals that would be perfect for YOUR project, knowing the requirements. That way you will get the best fit for a worker.
We don’t have a lot of departments
Less departments – less bureaucracy
Our company doesn’t have 2,000 people working for us every day
We value a sense of family in the company
We are young on the market
We are full of potential and excitement to do great things
No vice-presidents and white collars
Everyone is a highly experienced individual valued by the team and working in a team
Our big competitors don't like us for our prices
We present an optimal cost for the client without any sudden hidden overhead costs (whatever does not directly influence the cost of development - various fees, services, etc.)
We are not yet visible to all the clients
Shine bright like a diamond – like a ray of light from a distant sun, our light just might need a little more time. Word of mouth and good quality service will bear the fruit in time
Being in downtown, there are a lot of distractions like pubs and bars
Our office is located in the Kyiv downtown, close to three metro lines
No Sony PlayStation in the office
We’re working on it :)
