iPad App Pricing

C3UI Group Pricing Header

Practical and affordable.

Our rates are a fraction the cost of working with an agency because there is no markup and no overhead. By eliminating the middleman you spend less, a lot less. For example, a C3UI Group senior developer may charge $60-$90/hr, whereas an agency may charge as much as $300/hr for the same role.

  • Hourly rates – $50 to $100 per hour per role, depending on role and seniority

    • Example project: a team of 5 that covers design, development, project management, QA and deployment, on a project that takes 3 months to get to a deployed minimally viable product (MVP), may cost up to $90,000 for development (14 weeks x 32 hours x 5 roles x $60/hour (average based on having only one developer) @ 70% allocation (average based on 100% for the developer/designer, and less for the others) = approx. $90k). Note: projects can be more complex, take longer or have larger teams. Upfront or ongoing ancillary costs may include: the cost of in-house devices (e.g. if your company needs iPads), web services (e.g. if your company needs server-side APIs, databases, etc), mobile device management (e.g. if your deployment is large enough to warrant services like Kandji) or other services as required for your project. C3UI Group will work with its partners to find the optimal and most cost effective solutions for your needs. Better to know early than be surprised later!
