[01] WHY US

/ TRUST & EXPERTISE

Why companies are choosing
Roko Labs over EPAM

Why companies are choosing Roko Labs over EPAM

Lower Rates — Without Compromise

Roko Labs delivers high-caliber engineering talent at rates 25–30% lower than EPAM. That's not because we cut corners — it's because we run lean, stay focused, and don't carry the overhead of a global conglomerate.

A Better Fit for Smaller Accounts

Many growing companies find themselves deprioritized at larger firms like EPAM. With EPAM's upcoming price hikes, smaller accounts may be pushed even further down the list. At Roko Labs, you're never treated like a tier-two client — we tailor our approach to fit your size, needs, and ambitions.

Elite Talent with Low Turnover

We attract and retain exceptional talent — and our team sticks around. That means continuity, deep domain expertise, and fewer handoffs for your project. You get a dedicated, high-performing team that knows you r business inside and out.
