Testimonials

John and his team have been ahead of timeline, under budget and transparent for the duration of our projects. They have also worked with us as partners, to bring our software vision to life and added value to the project – instead of arguing scope creep. If you need custom software, this is your team.

I’ve gotta say; working thru v2.3 on Truck 47’s tablet I’m impressed. Looks good, flows smoothly and issues from v1 addressed. Thank you, your team has done a great job; I can’t say how much I appreciate your approach to software development.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

This is extremely variable depending on your requirements; typically the lowest cost apps are around $10,000 and they go upwards from there. Big factors include the amount of functionality in the app, what integrations to other systems it does or doesn’t need and whether or not we need to build a custom ‘back end’ data service for it.

The answer is almost always yes, it’s just a case of how easy or hard the integration is.

Because apps are downloaded from the app stores there is no direct hosting cost for the apps themselves. However, for apps requiring a custom back-end data service that data service does need to be hosted somewhere in the cloud and, if you don’t have an existing service that’s suitable, you may need to subscribe to a service specifically for it.

Typically these days people only build apps for the iOS and Android platforms as other platforms have pretty much died out. So, where this is the case, your apps will only work on devices running those platforms. Some apps are also only designed to be released on tablet or smartphone specifically, however they are the same technically (apart from screen size), so even where this is the case it’s usually easy to adapt for release for both tablets and smartphones.

Our app design and build processes aim to deliver the best mix of industry approaches that, in our experience, enable high quality apps to be produced efficiently, and with lots of client feedback at each stage. To read more see our Software Development Agency process page.
