Our Design Process

Hiring a VP of Engineering who can take your product to the next level isn’t going to be easy. If you’re new to the market, your team is most likely a close-knit, hardcore lot of developers led by a couple of seasoned founders, and they aren’t going to let just anyone lead the technology organization. Or maybe your company’s model is too engineering-focused and still relatively new and untested. Engineering is, of course, one of the most critical functions at a tech company. In fact, as every company becomes a tech company in some form, it’s vital to every company. And while potentially, there are enough leaders in the technical product function, from architects to CTOs, the VP or head of engineering is the executive that grows and manages the engineering team, responsible for ascertaining the time it will take to deliver products or features, and delivering quality releases on schedule.

The estimation process itself is not clearly defined in many software companies. Often estimates are made by comparing features to previous project features. These estimates are used to judge the effort required for a given task regarding time and money and in the hands of a project manager, summed up to get the completion date for the project as a whole. This completion date is then used to calculate total project cost.

The quick answer is that it depends on factors such as the complexity of your app as well as the location and skill level of your designers. Depending on these factors, it'll cost you from $3,000 to $60,000 to get a well designed app. While you may think this is a lot of money, good mobile designers are in high-demand so they charge premium rates for their services.
