Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to popular questions about development
Cost depends on many factors: functionality complexity, design, number of integrations, performance and scalability requirements. Landing page — from $2,000, corporate website with CMS — from $5,000, e-commerce — from $10,000, complex web applications (SaaS, platforms) — from $20,000, mobile applications — from $15,000. We calculate final cost after detailed briefing and requirements analysis. We provide detailed estimate broken down by stages.
Timelines depend on volume and complexity of tasks. Simple landing page — 2-3 weeks, corporate website with medium functionality — 1-2 months, large web application or e-commerce platform — 3-6 months, mobile applications — 2-4 months. We work with Agile methodology using two-week sprints, allowing launch of MVP (minimum viable product) in 4-6 weeks and gradual functionality growth. This minimizes risks and accelerates market entry. We provide realistic timeline estimates accounting for all risks.
Yes, we provide official 12-month warranty on all developed solutions. During warranty period, we fix all discovered bugs, technical issues, and non-compliance with original technical specifications for free. Warranty covers system stability, security, and performance. Also, in first 3 months after launch, we closely monitor product operation and respond quickly to any incidents. All warranty terms are specified in contract.
Yes, this is one of key advantages of Agile methodology we use. You can adjust requirements and priorities between sprints. First we discuss all proposed changes, assess their impact on architecture, timelines and budget, then make corrections to development plan. We understand that new ideas emerge and business priorities change during work — this is normal. Main thing is open communication and mutual understanding. We maintain change log of all modifications for transparency.
For frontend: React, Next.js, Vue.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Redux. For backend: Node.js, Python (Django, FastAPI), Go, PHP. Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis. Cloud platforms: AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Vercel. DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), monitoring (Grafana, Sentry). Mobile development: React Native, Flutter, Swift, Kotlin. AI/ML: TensorFlow, PyTorch, OpenAI API, LangChain. Blockchain: Solidity, Hardhat, Ethers.js. We select optimal technology stack for specific project tasks, considering scalability, performance and long-term support.
Technical support includes full range of services for your product maintenance: 24/7 uptime and response time monitoring, regular security and dependency updates, automatic database backups, bug fixes, performance optimization, development and scaling consultations, technical documentation and team training. We offer different support levels: basic (from $400/month), standard (from $800/month), and premium with priority request processing and dedicated team (from $1,600/month). SLA specified in contract.
Yes, we regularly take on improvement, refactoring and development of existing projects. Process starts with thorough technical audit: we analyze architecture, code quality, performance, security, technical debt. We check code for best practices compliance, identify bottlenecks and potential issues. After audit, we provide detailed report with recommendations and compose improvement plan with effort estimates. We can either completely rewrite project on modern stack or gradually modernize individual modules. We especially often help with legacy system migration to new technologies.
Yes, we actively work with clients from different countries. Our team communicates fluently in Russian and English. We use convenient communication tools: Slack, Zoom, Google Meet, Jira, Notion. We accept payments in different currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, RUB) through international payment systems. We account for time zone differences and organize meetings at convenient times for you. We have experience working with companies from USA, Europe, Middle East and Asia. We understand specifics of different markets and regulatory requirements.
Open and regular communication is foundation of successful project. We assign personal project manager who coordinates all work and is available during business hours. We hold weekly meetings (sprint review and planning) for demonstrating results and planning next tasks. We use Jira, Trello or Linear for task tracking — you always have access to progress. We document all decisions and agreements. We send weekly reports on work completed. In critical situations, available 24/7. Entire process is maximally transparent.
We provide full cycle: from UX/UI design to development and launch. Our team includes experienced designers who create interfaces convenient for users and solving business tasks. Design process includes: UX research and competitor analysis, user flow creation, interactive prototyping in Figma, design of all screens and states, design system development for scaling. If you already have ready design — we can work with it. We also do redesign of existing products to improve UX and conversion.
Security is priority at all development stages. We follow industry standards and best practices: OWASP Top 10, GDPR, PCI DSS (for fintech). We implement multi-factor authentication, data encryption at rest and in transit (SSL/TLS), protection against SQL injections, XSS, CSRF attacks. We conduct regular code reviews and use static code analyzers (SonarQube). We configure WAF (Web Application Firewall), rate limiting, DDoS protection. Before launch, we conduct pentesting and security audit. We regularly update dependencies to close vulnerabilities. We can obtain certification according to your industry standards.
All source code developed for your project is transferred to your full ownership. After final payment, you receive exclusive rights to code, design and all materials. We transfer code through Git repository (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) with full commit history. We provide technical documentation: architecture description, API documentation, deployment instructions, developer and administrator guides. We help with transfer of access to servers, domains, third-party services. If necessary, we conduct knowledge transfer sessions with your team. All this is specified in contract.
Yes, this is reasonable approach we actively support. We start with MVP (minimum viable product) development — minimal product version with key functionality for testing market hypotheses. This allows launch in 4-6 weeks with budget from $7,000 and get first feedback from real users. After MVP launch, we analyze metrics, collect feedback and plan next development stages. We can work in iterations: every 2-4 weeks we add new functionality depending on business priorities and available budget. This approach minimizes risks and allows flexible management of product investments.
We design architecture considering future load growth. We use microservice architecture for complex systems, allowing independent scaling of individual components. We implement caching (Redis, CDN), optimize database queries (indexes, denormalization), use message queues (RabbitMQ, Kafka) for asynchronous processing. We configure horizontal scaling (Kubernetes, auto-scaling), load balancing, real-time performance monitoring (Grafana, Prometheus). We conduct load testing before launch. We optimize frontend: code splitting, lazy loading, SSR/SSG. We prepare system for growth from hundreds to millions of users.
Yes, we conduct comprehensive training for your team on working with developed product. Training program includes: technical workshops for developers (architecture, codebase, API), administrator training on deployment and environment configuration, content manager instruction on CMS and admin panel work, support training on basic problem-solving scenarios. We create video instructions and text documentation. Format — online or offline sessions for 2-4 hours. After training, we stay in touch for consultations. We can also conduct code review sessions for your developers to share best practices.
We apply multi-level testing strategy to ensure quality. We write unit tests for critical business logic (70-80% coverage), integration tests for API and component interaction, end-to-end tests for key user scenarios (Cypress, Playwright). We conduct manual functional testing of each release, UI testing on different devices and browsers, security testing, load testing under high load (JMeter, k6). We use CI/CD for automatic test execution on each commit. We implement error monitoring in production (Sentry). QA specialists work in parallel with developers in each sprint.
