As for whether or not you should consider working with SaaS Development Outsourcing Company, it depends on what kind of challenges you might be having.

Things that usually go wrong with SaaS applications built in house are:
•    Pricing engine
•    Scalability
•    Multi-tenancy
•    Security
•    Compliance

If not done right, these can leads to additional development and operational costs, and lost business in the future.

If time to market is a concern for you, a SaaS Development Outsourcing Company can be familiar with platforms and tools that can help:
•    Reduce development costs
•    Accelerate time to market
•    Implement best practices
•    Reduce risk of design mistakes

If cost and productivity are concerns for you, some SaaS Development Outsourcing Companies are experts at SaaS product development using Agile project management and can reduce development costs by leveraging a nearshore development center in Mexico.

So basically it comes down to whether or not you feel you have everything under control and have minimized the risks.
