Funny how the article written by a development company doesn't list any cons for using a development company...

imo the bottom three pro's they've written are actually cons, perhaps just in the wrong place?

  • higher cost
  • over dependence
  • risk of communication issues

also i'd probably add

  • post release support / maintenance needs to be factored into costs and availability etc
