I need software/application – how much does it cost?

Our clients and those who recommended us already know our procedure for defining price, but we decided to write that here also so we can help all of you that are in front of the process of digitalization.

Do you need software or application, but you have a limited budget that you need to fit in? Or simply – yes, you are ready to give as much money as is necessary, but you want to know the parameters during the negotiation about the price of the service production of the software so you can choose the company that you will give your trust to.

The common elements during the production of the project task and the realization of the custom-made solutions are:

SOFTWARE/APPLICATION SIZE – what is the number of screens/windows, also how many users exist. The specified categories require the development of a specific set of visuals that users interact with. Also, the larger the number of users, the more necessary optimization, tests and adjustment to ensure the stability of software/application. All of that reflects on the number of developers’ hours. Considering in general, smaller software/application is considered those to 20 screens, and the larger one is over 40.
THE COMPLEXITY OF THE SOFTWARE/APPLICATION – the type of tasks that are required from the software/application, that induces the number of categories. These types of software/application are, for example, for simulation, data automatization, and system control. The software/application that is complex requires more complicated logic which means detailed analysis and longer production. For developing those types of software/application are been engaged highly qualified developers and the production duration is longer, and all that is listed influences the cost that presents their salary, and further a total cost amount of development. 
THE INTEGRATION OF THE SOFTWARE/APPLICATION - installation and incorporation of existing software/application. This procedure is most common when we talk about the integration of the base, payment process and similar.
DATA MIGRATION – when we want to transfer data from the existing system to the new one. Although it seems easy, actually every system stores and keeps data in a specific way and it requires running custom scripts that transfer old data and after that rearrange them in compliance with the new application requests. 
THE COMPLEXITY OF THE DESIGN – we suppose that we don’t need to explain too much about this element, but in the same way when we arrange any space – the more specific esthetic requests are the more costs are. 

The development process itself is subject to a wide range of prices because many factors affect the final agreement. As we used to write in a blog about benefits and advice during ordering custom-made solutions that it should consider also costs of support and maintenance, but also afterward customization that company offers, there is no unique defined amount at different IT companies and that is the reason why it is the best way to choose the contractor sending an inquiry to various addresses and to make a decision by criteria that is the relation between cost and quality.
