What costs are included in an APP development
1, labor costs: to develop an APP, you need to have a professional team. And one such team contains product managers, UI design, iOS/Android development, background development, testing and other personnel. content, don't come if you're just getting along. And want so many people at the same time office, you need to find an office space to accommodate so many people. Usually a small to medium sized office space is enough, and the cost is probably around a few thousand a month.
3, office equipment: including computers, test phones, etc., which iOS development because of its development characteristics, other computers without edges to write, so you need an Apple computer.
And other computer configuration in about 4000 is enough. But do the design of the computer configuration needs to be higher, in order to facilitate the response to a variety of complex design issues.
4, online costs: space servers, product release and other costs, relative to the above points, these costs are not high, the problem is not very big.
In the technology outsourcing market, the outsourcing company's offer is also tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of prices. So what are development companies quoting based on? Below, it is analyzed through the following perspectives.
First, the cost of production: the so-called production is actually to determine the demand (product), design, research and development and testing, the process involved in this life cycle, the main costs include research and development labor costs, hardware costs and third-party services and so on.
In fact, the biggest investment in technology is the cost of labor, which depends on the size of the product, its maturity, the regional economy, and the competency level of the people working on it.
We know that a good R&D team must have at least one project manager, one product manager, one UI designer, one IOS development engineer and one Android development engineer. There are also test engineers, operations and maintenance personnel, etc., these people are basically more than 10K monthly salary.
Simple accounting, at least 100,000 yuan per month of fixed personnel expenditures, not including office and management costs, in general, an APP project for at least two months or more, personnel costs can be imagined.
Second, the functional requirements: there is no clear and unambiguous needs, there will not be a reasonable price, but also cause disputes between the project side and the developer, the project side feels that the money spent on the eventual development of things but not what he wants.
No matter what type of APP development, its price is in accordance with the functional requirements, the number of functions, the complexity of the function is the main factor in determining the price of an APP. All before developing an APP, it is very necessary to establish clear product requirements.
Third, the version: APP version is more, now APP software development type is mainly divided into IOS development and Andriod development is mainly, because people mainly use the cell phone is the Apple phone and Android phone, so the general development of APP need to develop two versions, the development cost of course higher.
Fourth, the development cycle: APP development cycle is long, the same function, APP is more difficult to realize, the amount of code needed is much higher than the website development, so it leads to a longer development cycle, which leads to higher costs.
