How Much Does it Cost to Maintain an App?

App maintenance is an ongoing investment to ensure your app continues to meet user expectations, stays competitive in the market, and remains secure and functional.
How about if we reveal all what is covered in the scope of the App maintenance, Why do you need to regularly manage your App, what kind of hours and money should you be planning to invest to manage your app in 2023? It will be cool, ya?
Ideally, a basic App Maintenance Cost Plan of 160 hours per month will do a fair job to manage and upkeep a commercial version of your App and this would cost you less than $ 3000/ Month. Now depending upon the needs, number of App users, number of requests/ issues reported etc. you may need to retain your App maintenance team for more hours than just 160 on month on month basis.

1. What is covered in the Scope of App Support & Maintenance?

The App is needed to be regularly updated largely for its following parts and components:
iOS App and Android Apps whether built in native or cross platform tech.
Web Parts/ Web App (Front end, backend, Web replica of mobile apps).
Native APIs and Third-party APIs.
Database, Design files.
Any new feature development utilizing during the maintenance.
Upkeep and updates of beyond-the-app-technology and assets like App Install Ad creatives, beyond the App user onboarding (like through QR code or through an integrated partner’s app or site), Marketing automation, analytics, integration with external Apps and so on.

2. Activities that we perform for App Support & Maintenance

Following are the high level tasks that are performed to regularly upkeep and update your App:
1. Complete QA Testing by a dedicated QA Engineer and Business Analyst to figure out all possible Bugs — mostly a one time effort for every major release.
2. Fixing of Bugs are Reported by the client + Bugs as reported by our Testing Team across iOS, Android, Backend, Web or anywhere else.
3. Updating the App and its underlying Technology Whenever there is a soft or major OS update from Apple or Google.
4. Updating Apps to be compatible with all latest releases of all third Party APIs being used in the App and in the backend.
5. Regular App Performance optimization for a high performing App
6. Periodical App Code clean up as a regular practice and Code repository Maintenance.
7. Regular Documentation, Creating App’s SDKs and APIs
8. Regular Store upload, putting web parts on live server, coordinating with App stores on behalf of the client.
9. Server Maintenance corresponding to the cloud provider’s infrastructure and features
10. Managing, Recording, and Sharing the Timesheet with the client

3. App Maintenance Plans and Pricing from Agicent

We’ve kept it very simple, you retain us for X number of hours a month for App maintenance and pay the fee. Obviously, the more hours you retain us for the better will be the pricing. We always ask our clients to start with the lowest plan and then we jointly analyze in 3 months if 160 hours are enough to handle the App support demands and if not then only we ask you to increase the plan with justification.

4. Skills and Engineers needed for App Maintenance Process

If your App runs on both iOS and Android and also has a web front end along with a backend, then you need following skilled Engineers to perform App maintenance:
– Native or Cross Platform iOS/ Android Developers.
Native would include Swift/ Xcode developer for iOS; Kotlin/ Java and Studio Developer for Android.
Cross platform skills would be React native, Flutter or Ionic.
– Backend Developers
The skills can be node.js, mongoDB, ExpressJS or MERN Stack or Laravel/ PHP, or .NET or Java (Depending upon the tech stack being used at your backend).
– Web Front End Developer
If you have a landing page website or a complete App’s replica on the web then you may need web front end developers experts in HTML, JS, React JS or Angular or PHP/ Laravel or ASP.NET (Depending upon the tech stack being used at the website end).
– Professional App Tester who knows both manual and automation testing.
– UI/ UX Designer knowing Figma, Photoshop, Adobe design suite.
– Business Analyst and Project Coordinator
The one who will be internal project stakeholder at Agicent, will be your single point of contact, will coordinate between you and development and will also do all activities related to business analysis.

5. Factors to consider to find out how much does it cost to maintain an App?

Although we have made easier and straight forward for you to do app maintenance by offering hourly maintenance plans, but there still can be some factors that can raise or bring down the cost of App maintenance as follows:

The complexity of the application

The basic factor that contributes to the maintenance cost of the application in 2023 is the complexity of the application. Everyone wants to have advanced apps with more and more features, screens, and much more. But keep in mind that if you are adding these it will further raise your maintenance costs to the greatest extent. Adding more to it, the maintenance costs will also rise with the involvement of higher technology or framework for its development.

Hybrid Applications

The smartphones available in the market depend upon different operating systems. Everyone loves to have the one that they prefer the most. Android and iOS platforms are the two leading operating systems that the majority of users prefer to have on. Do you know what is the basic factor that lies behind the success of an application well its usage? The majority of the time developers prefer to create hybrid applications that can work effectively on both Android and iOS operating systems. But if you have created such, just keep in mind that the maintenance costs are also going to be quite higher than that of the maintenance costs of the same application for both of the platforms.

Third-Party Integrations

The integration of third-party sources also adds up in raising the overall maintenance cost of an application. More will be your app linked closely with the different external sources such as payment platforms, social media services, higher will be the overall maintenance cost of your app. Let’s make it simpler for you, the maintenance cost of a simple photo editing app is usually quite lower than that of the news app.

App Development Team Location

The maintenance cost of an application also differs a lot as per the location. You may need to pay the maintenance cost of about $50–150 per hour in the USA but it may somewhere lie in between $25–60 per hour in Eastern and Central Europe. Whereas if we talk about the maintenance cost of the application in India it is quite low and you can easily accomplish it by paying $10–30 per hour.

6. Few things that you can do to make sure less maintenance overhead:

– Build your app well architected right from the start
– Take care of the scalability
– have a professional Development Team
– Check your analytics

7. Benefits of App Maintenance Process

– High performing App, every single day
– Scalability
– Security
– Higher user engagement and better Marketing
– Better integration, exploit third party services to the maximum

Conclusion of App Development Cost and Process

Application development and maintenance is a never-ending process. Right from adding updates to resolving issues, there are a lot more things that go on side by side throughout. The expenses on an app do not end with its creation, they kind of keep on but for only the good.

How to Hire an App Developer? A Guide for App Entrepreneurs

Once you’ve your App product idea in mind, the next most important question you mostly encounter is “How can I hire an app developer or put together an app development team?” The simple answer is — you can hire an App Development Company, or Hire an App Developer Freelancer, or hire An Offshore App Development Team. We’ll go into details of all these options and some more further in this article, so by the time you end up reading you’ll be well well versed in the following: Finding an App Developer, Shortlisting an App developer, hiring an app developer, negotiating on App development cost and much more.
The global count of smartphone users has surpassed three billion and is projected to further escalate in the forthcoming years. This wave in smartphone demand has triggered a parallel wave in the demand for mobile apps and their development.

The requirement for no-cost mobile app construction tools is also currently at a peak, coinciding with the exponential expansion of the market. Numerous bespoke app development firms operate within this market, alongside Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms that facilitate do-it-yourself app creation without the need for coding skills.

Top Places to Source and Hire App Developers

In the dynamic realm of app development, the journey toward crafting a standout digital solution commences with the pivotal choice of your development team. Just as a treasure map leads to hidden gems, this section serves as a compass, guiding you through the top avenues where the brightest app development minds converge. From specialized development firms to global marketplaces, personal networks, and tech hubs, we’ll unravel the diverse pathways that usher your app’s journey toward excellence. Come along as we traverse these corridors of innovation and unravel the possibilities that lie within when you’re on the hunt for the ideal app developer.

Hire an App Developer from An App Development Company

When embarking on the journey of app development, one of the most sensible choices is to collaborate with an established app development company. This avenue presents a host of advantages that set it apart as the premier choice for sourcing app developers and teams.

An app development company houses a multifaceted team of experts, each specializing in distinct areas — from designers and developers to testers and architects. This comprehensive skill set ensures that every facet of the app’s creation is meticulously addressed.

Hiring from Freelance Marketplaces

While freelance marketplaces like Upwork or Freelancer.com offer a convenient platform to connect with individual app developers, it’s essential to weigh the pros and cons before opting for this avenue. Freelancers can be cost-effective, especially for smaller projects or specific tasks. The flexibility to hire on a project-by-project basis is appealing for startups who have limited budgets.

Hiring from Personal Circles or Platforms like LinkedIn

Sourcing app developers from personal networks or professional platforms like LinkedIn might seem appealing due to the familiarity and potential ease of communication. However, it is critical to recognize the disadvantages of this strategy.

The main drawback lies in the unpredictability of finding the right fit within a specific timeframe. While personal connections might offer convenience, they may not always possess the necessary skills or availability required for the project. This can lead to delays, frustration, and potentially compromised quality.

Sourcing App Developers from Tech Blogs or Forums

Exploring tech blogs or forums to source app developers might seem like an unconventional approach, but it comes with its share of challenges. While some tech aficionados may provide useful insights and ideas, depending only on this route for complete app development might be dangerous.

The primary drawback lies in the lack of structured project management and accountability. Engaging with individuals solely through online platforms might result in miscommunication, missed deadlines, and a lack of oversight. The absence of a dedicated team working in tandem can hinder the collaborative process that is necessary for creating a high-quality app.

Elevating Your App Vision with Agicent: The Definitive Choice

In the fast-paced world of app development, where several options compete for your attention, the route to excellence is created by making strategic decisions that correspond with your vision and ambitions. Among the plethora of avenues available, one distinct choice emerges as the epitome of comprehensive solutions: partnering with an app development company like Agicent.

Conclusion

In the ever-changing landscape of app entrepreneurship, the quest to hire the perfect app developer is like choosing the right toppings for your pizza — it can make or break the entire experience! As you embark on this whimsical journey, it’s crucial to recognize that app development is not just about summoning a coding wizard; it’s more like assembling a squad of multidisciplinary superheroes who join forces to craft a knockout app.

The challenges and insights we’ve traversed in this blog unveil the hidden treasures of the hiring process. From sketching out your project blueprint and scrutinising technical prowess to balancing budgets, dissecting portfolios, and gazing into the crystal ball of long-term visions — each step is akin to picking the right emojis for your digital masterpiece.

What is MVP? Understanding the Essence of MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

An MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is always the first version of a product with only the “core and most useful features” meant for early adaptors. MVP Development is low cost, low risk, quick and it works!The term MVP (Minimum Viable Product) was first coined by Frank Robinson (Founder of SyncDev) back in 2001, however it was popularized into the masses through the works of Eric Ries through his works especially the book Lean Startup which is a go-to book for all modern day Entrepreneurs, and also by Steve Blank.

Common Myths around Minimum Viable Products: An MVP is often confused with a Prototype,� Proof of Concept, Test Product, and even with wireframes or Blueprint, and that is a wrong understanding. An MVP is a commercial product that users can actually use (and often pay for) and is not at all an “Prototype or Proof of concept” for internal testing.

What makes a product an MVP?

It is important to understand that an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) is a relative term and not absolute. An MVP of a bigger product (Say MVP of Dropbox) can be a full product in itself of a smaller product vision.
1. An MVP is a smaller and quickly developed version of a potentially bigger software product idea.
2. An MVP is the version of your software product that should be created and launched within 3 to 6 months.
3. An MVP is not a “Proof of Concept” for testing, it’s a working product that is launched in the market in front of real users.
4. An MVP can be both paid or free product. In the current world, it is often times Freemium i.e you use it for free for a limited time and limited features and then pay for the full features.

MVP (Minimum Viable Product) Examples from the Real World?

Both theoretically and practically almost all big software products and Apps you use today were once MVPs (Except a few examples of good old office tools from giant software publishers, lol). But let’s take up some recent and well known examples:

Whatsapp Messenger was a pretty lean MVP when it was first launched and it only had a mechanism to send messages and invite others and few more essential features. And now, it lets you do group calls, put status, create groups, communities, exchange money and what not.

Your beloved Facebook was an MVP made inside a college campus that just had a good UI, user’s database, ability to send connections and write on the wall.� It was a “bigger size” MVP though but compare that with the features that you see on a “Grown Up” Facebook, you’ll call the earlier version as the MVP.

Airbnb was an MVP not on the software side but also on the operations side as the founders used their own apartment to test the concept. As per my understanding, Airbnb is the most excellent example of an MVP in recent times.
Big apps like Instagram, Youtube, Dropbox were all very-very lean versions of their current selves when they were just an MVP.

The lesson here: Be very thoughtful, pragmatic, visionary and research oriented when identifying your MVP Minimum Viable product, for it is what is going to stay for a long time when you see the success!

MVP Development Cost: How much does it cost to build an MVP?

A really important and most commonly asked question is How much does it cost to build an MVP App? The normal answer to MVP Development cost would be- it depends! However, after working on plenty of MVP products over the last decade, we’ve found some kind of range for the MVP development and we are happy to share that with you as follows:

An MVP should be build inside 3 months (using 1 developer team) to 6 months (with 2 developer team). As per our costing standards, this means between $ 9000 to $ 18000. Time * Engineer skills are the major MVP Development cost factors here.

A complex MVP where you are creating a unique tech feature (which may not have been done before) will cost more as you’ll do that as follows –
You create the Proof of concept at first, and that can cost from $ 5000 to anything. Just to give you an example – we recently started working on a PoC project where we needed to capture and study the “speech pattern” of a particular user group and then to achieve the capabilities to identify different speech patterns technologically.

Difference between MVP and MLP?

An MLP stands for Minimum Loveable Product and there is no set definition for this. However, an MLP is little more than an MVP where the approach is: The customer not only accepts the MVP but also falls in love with that. Pretty much the same thing, however, the additional love makes it what? Well, a more loveable product! 🙂

How To Create An App From Scratch: 10 Steps Guide

�
Creating an app from scratch can be an exciting and rewarding journey. Whether you have a brilliant idea or want to learn app development, this guide will walk you through the essential steps to turn your concept into a reality. By following these steps, you'll gain insights into the app development process and increase your chances of building a successful app.

We all have witnessed the rapid increase of mobile App users from the last decade. Creating an App is not just an intelligent decision to digitally take a step ahead in your business, it is now an essential aspect of any business in the world nevertheless.

1. Define Your App Objectives

Yes, we all know that the ultimate goal of any business is to generate a million-dollar revenue and an App business is pretty much capable to achieve that and more, however we suggest take one step at a time. First of all, define what Major Problem that your app is going to solve, then define secondary problems too. Figure out what is not already in the market that your app can fill with i.e Do an App Gap Analysis. Brainstorm about the main objective your app is going to serve. Will the app enhance the experience of all your customers or will it be generating sales and purchases? Will this App offer a unique technology that makes users life easier, or the app is going to be an extension of your existing business? Once you’ve figured out the Gap, Opportunity, and Problem then you can build an App startup business around it.

2. Do App Competition Research, Analyze, Validate App idea, build a strategy

Even before you start thinking of actually creating an App, it is very important to do a deep App competition research, analysis, and know how to validate your app idea, and Build a strategy for MVP App Development, Full App Product Development, and launch and growth and of course, Exit!
Once you research on your competitors App, you may end up with one or more of the following scenarios:

Scenario #1 Your App idea is absolutely unique and there is no existing App which remotely does what you want your App to offer.
Scenario #2 There are similar Apps out-there but you see a big opportunity to fill the gaps they’ve left.
Scenario #3 The Market is saturated with many Apps similar to your App idea.
Scenario #4 Your App is an extension of your existing brand, product, services so competition doesn’t bother.

3. Define your App’s USP or Unique Bragworthy Proposition

The concept of UBP in case of the Apps means you need to make your App product in such a way and position it in such a way that their users just not get benefitted out of it but feel “Smug” about being its users and that becomes your no. 1 App marketing tool. Not every new App product can be Bragworthy for the users, but atleast one should try.

4. Create App Wireframes or Write user stories or Use-cases

A wireframe is the next step in the process of creating an app. An App wireframe is the rough sketch of the mobile application you want to develop. A wireframe can be created on paper or also by using some very smart Mockups or Wireframes creating tools around that come with their mobile apps as well. We’ll talk about wireframing tools a little later, after describing an app specification document.

5. Technical Feasibility — Create App’s PoC if needed

Things get serious from here. A big round of Technical Feasibility Analysis is to be done here and I’ll tell you the reasons also.
– To make sure that all what the App wants to achieve is achievable through the existing technology and libraries or would you need to build the technology from the scratch. For example, if I were to create an App that can scan the numbers on your credit card then I can use an OCR library like tesseract or any other computer vision/ Optical character recognition library and that will save me to create a whole new technology just for one app. However, in case of Apps which offer you an altogether new technology (Like Prisma App), you may need to work on the background technology (in this case — image processing) yourself and that can blow out the scope of the work to a whole different level.

6. Create High Fidelity Designs

Once your wireframes are finalized, the development looks all feasible, the technical architecture is selected now it is time to convert your wireframes into high fidelity screen designs that developers can use to incorporate into the project.
For high fidelity designs, you do need a professional designer who can use tools like Adobe Photoshop, or Sketch or Figma for creating high fidelity screens. Agicent can definitely help you with App wireframes, App high fidelity designs, and ofcourse App development. Here are some latest design examples and App concepts we are working upon — App Ideas.

7. Choose Front end and Backend Technologies

Now that you have the objective, goals, market research and framework ready, the next step to proceed forward is the the coding at both ends — Front end (The App side) and backend (the backend technology, admin panel, content management, database and APIs). There are plenty of ways to build an app but the most important call to take while building an app from the scratch is to finalize which technologies to use. This highly depends upon the App type, Budget, Future scalability, and timeline.

8. Choose your App Developer

When all of above is in place, you now have to launch your project and for that you need an App Development Team. There are some options to go about creating your app as follows –
Hire an App Development Company — You can always hire a reputed App Development company like Agicent to create your App. App Companies like ours are usually equipped with the right development, design and testing teams and can quickly start working on the project and delivering that. You can either hire an App company on fixed price for fixed scope of work; or can opt for hourly model (Check out Remote App Developers )pricing.

9. App Project Management, Delivery Plan and interim releases

Now App development project management is largely the job of your app development company, however it is always beneficial when you get involved as the prime stakeholder and get a visibility of the ongoing project yourself — may be a few minutes per day.

10. Test your App and Polish and repeat

QA is one of the most important steps for creating an app from the scratch. Once the app is ready, test it on different devices of the same OS to check if the app is adaptable and all the functionalities are working as planned. Be the first user of your application and always act as a user while browsing the app. Make sure that the app works online and at least loads while there is no internet connection. Check the chatbots, payment getaways, cancellation, log-in and maximum functionalities.

You must have encountered this question once or twice, especially if you are interested in app development. As per the latest industry reports, the cost for creating an app lies somewhere between $20,000 and $250,000. The average cost of creating an app is approximately $172,000. Remember that the above-mentioned figures are just estimates, and the final cost of an app project can vary more or less per the requirements.

But the answer to the question of how is app development cost calculated is here. This article discusses an in-depth overview of the global software development market state.

Firstly, building a mobile app by yourself is quite not possible and if it is than it’s not as easy as it might look to you. You can make an app with enough technical knowledge and expertise, but it’s not one person’s job. App development is a process that needs a whole team of developers, designers, project managers, and quality assurance engineers for a successful launch of an app. The combined work of all teams on the project turns the app idea into a full-fledged app in a span of 3–6 months, depending on the number and complexity of features.

Cost to Build a Mobile App Depending on the App Type

Developing an app is really not a piece of cake. This requires a lot of team effort and proper planning within the requested timelines. From analyzing the customer’s need to marketing it right, this all has to be done in the right manner.

Factors Affecting the Cost to Build an App:

The answer to the question of how much does it cost to build an app is a complex one, as several factors influence the final cost of developing an app. Continue the read on some of the factors that affect the cost to make an app are listed below:

1-Mobile App Features and Functionality

Trying to get an answer for how much it cost to build a mobile app can only be attained with an understanding of which features you are going to include in your app. This is the most significant cost driver factor, as some can take months to implement. On average, the cost of developing a mobile app can shift in either direction depending on the number and complexity of features you want to implement.

2-Designing of an App

The UI/UX stage of the mobile app development is fully detailed to create user flows, defining how users will interact with the application and how the interface will look. The feature is important to make the app user-friendly. Some of us appreciate and like the minimalist look of the app, but many are also there who like the vibrant look of an app. The look and feel of the app also depend on type of business you have. No matter the business idea the primary focus should be the app looks are sorted and easy for customers to access.

3-Operating System

The cost of developing an app also depends on which Operating System you are planning to launch the app. As per the current stats, android is ruling the market holding 72.83% of the market share in the mobile app industry, whereas iOS has 26.35% of the market share. Therefore, it is important to decide on your audience before launching the app. The development of the android app is relatively more expensive than the iOS because the development time of an Android app is more than iOS. Make yourself aware of how much it cost to build an iOS app and then observe the difference on your own.

4-Backend Infrastructure

A strong backend increases the average cost of developing an app. The backend holds the empowerment of an app. Hence it is very important to have a great backend involved while developing an app. Backend offers things such as a cloud server, customer server and MBaaS(Mobile backend as a service) that float your data on the cloud to provide quick results. These hold functions such as encryption, security, database, storage and crucial and significant information. The app scalability and snappiness depend completely on how scalable your backend is.

5-Geographical Location of the Development Team

The success of the app largely depends upon how well the app development team works on the application. A well-known fact that experience holders and talented developers charge more money for what they are capable of doing when it comes to developing a mobile app. The cost to build a mobile app depends upon the domains where they are located. For instance, the average cost in the USA will be more than as compared to Asian countries offering the same service at different prices. Therefore, when you decide to outsource app development, you must choose your options carefully regarding where you want to acquire the development services.

6-Cost of Outsourcing Mobile App Development: In-house vs. Agencies

You need to decide whether to develop an app in-house or outsource the process to a third-party development company. Both have their pros and cons. When working with an in-house development team, the major advantage is direct communication, deep involvement, face-to-face meetings and complete control over the team. Another side of the coin is the lack of talent, the need for huge initial investments and dealing with hiring and procedural problems.
Whereas working with an outsourcing company or agency has its advantages; therefore, many individuals prefer outsourcing over in-house. It’s major benefits are far greater than the issues. The benefit of outsourcing the app development team is an unlimited pool of talent, a high level of expertise, cost-deduction, flexibility and no need for any kind of initial investments. The disadvantages with the outsourcing companies or agencies are time zone differences and lack of personal control.

7-Publishing the App

After the app has been successfully developed by the developers, and the QA team has also assured the app’s quality as it is free of bugs. Now is the time, your app is ready for the next big step i.e. deployment of the app on either of the store App store or Google Play Store or both as per need. If you are adding process steps for estimating the cost of developing an app, count this process in. This process involves many documentation and protocols involved at places related to security purposes.

8-Marketing the App

Once the app is developed and deployed on the app store, it’s time to create a lot of buzz. Many marketers treat the launch of an app as a big event and, with the right approach, make it a huge success that results in downloads and usability from the users. Even though the app marketing budget is a separate thing, but it is advised you must include it within the total app budget.

9-App Maintenance Cost

If you think you are just concerned about the cost of making an app and you don’t know that only building an app will not mark your work as done. Revamping and maintaining the app requires double the cost of creating an app.
