      eCommerce Review from Justin Rothstein

      I had the pleasure of working with Anthony and his team at Maximize for the past five years, and I cannot express enough how transformative their work has been for my business. When I first approached Anthony with just an idea sketched on a piece of paper, he quickly demonstrated his expertise and vision. Within three months, he turned my concept into a tangible reality.From start to finish, Anthony and his team were exceptionally dedicated, working around the clock to ensure that every detail was meticulously addressed. They created an incredible e-commerce platform, expertly designing both the front end and back end, and seamlessly handling all aspects of our marketing.I couldnt ask for a better company or team to help drive my business forward. The professionalism and commitment displayed by everyone at Maximize are truly commendable. They are always available to assist, regardless of the time of day or even on weekends, making the entire process not only productive but also enjoyable.I highly recommend Maximize and the amazing people who work there. They are a pleasure to collaborate with, and Im grateful for the significant impact they've had on my business.

      UI/UX Design Review from Kourosh Nazari

      In our quest for the perfect addition to our mobile team, someone who could dive into the deep end of mobile design with both UI expertise and a keen sense for product design, we found support from Netguru. This support person didn't just join our team; they became its heartbeat, compressing our onboarding-to-delivery timeline to an astonishing less than two weeks.Their magic didn't stop there. They breathed new life into our mobile app, then designed their way through our public website, elevating our brand to heights we hadn't imagined. And now, as we stand on the brink of weaving their talent into our product, we realize we found much more than the artistic boost we sought. We discovered a true professional, a delightful presence whose creativity knows no bounds, yet who navigates requirements with precision. Their arrival wasn't just a solution; it was a transformation.

      Marta Staszak's Review Sourced from Google

      Extremely poor experience during recruitment process. It only indicated how they treat people inside the company. They force job applicants to do time-consuming tasks, and then they send very vague feedback. In EU this kind of practice is called unpaid consulting, and can be penalised by Fair Trade Organization. I recommend to think twice before doing business with Netguru Poland :)

      As an aesthetic clinic owner in Denton, working with KoderHive has been a huge upgrade.We were missing leads, slow to respond, and had too many no-shows. They fixed it with AI and automations, and now we’re getting 20–50 more booked consults every month.Everything just runs smoother now.

Frequently Asked Questions About Design Agencies

What services do design companies offer?

They offer a mix of branding, digital product design, and creative services to help businesses build recognizable brands and user-friendly digital experiences, often combining graphic design, digital marketing support, and content creation. 

Core services include:

  • Branding and brand identity: Creating logos, visual identity systems, brand guidelines, typography, and messaging frameworks. These services are widely used because a consistent brand presentation can increase revenue by up to 23%, according to marketing research cited in design industry reports.
  • Web design and web development: Building responsive website design, landing pages, eCommerce design, and front-end implementation, often supporting broader digital marketing and content marketing strategies.
  • UX (user experience) and UI (user interface) design: Usually accounts for 60-70% of agency offerings, according to many design agencies' insights. UX/UI design focuses on usability, research, and interface design for digital products such as websites, SaaS platforms, and mobile apps. Agencies handle user research, wireframes, prototypes, usability testing, and final UI designs, often applying innovative design approaches to improve usability and engagement.
  • Product and app design: Creating digital products such as mobile apps, SaaS platforms, and dashboards that combine UX research, interaction design, and prototyping before development.
  • Graphic design and marketing design: Producing marketing and communication assets, such as social media visuals, advertising creatives, packaging design, presentations, and editorial design, to support brand campaigns.
  • Design strategy and research: Providing strategic services such as design thinking workshops, product discovery, customer journey mapping, and innovation consulting to align design decisions with business goals. Some agencies apply concentric design principles, focusing on aligning user needs, brand identity, and product functionality around a unified experience.

How much do design services cost?

Design agency pricing varies by scope, seniority, and market, but most agencies sell work in three common ways: fixed project fees, hourly/day rates, or monthly retainers.

Most design companies charge $75-$250 per hour, while full projects typically range from $5,000 for small branding work to $100,000+ for complex digital product or website design projects.

In the United States and other high-cost markets, design agencies typically charge:

  • $100-$250/hr. for UX/UI and product design specialists. 
  • $75-$200/hr. for general graphic design or digital design agency services. 

Regional averages for UX/UI design in North America often range from $50 to $200/hr, depending on expertise and specialization.  

Branding and brand identity

  • Basic brand identity packages: $5,000-$25,000 for logo design, typography systems, color palettes, and brand guidelines. 
  • More comprehensive brand design projects can range from $ 5,000 to $30,000+, depending on the strategy work and deliverables.  

Website design

  • Smaller website design projects: $3,000-$20,000+, depending on the number of pages and customization. 
  • Full website redesign projects typically cost $10,000-$200,000+, especially for large or enterprise websites.

UX/UI design projects generally start around $10,000 and can exceed $100,000 for complex products or SaaS platforms.

How long does a typical design project take?

The timeline of a design project depends on the type of service, project complexity, and the speed of feedback. Still, most professional design firm projects take between 6 weeks and 6 months from kickoff to final delivery.  

  • Branding projects: 4-12 weeks, including research, strategy, and visual identity; larger rebranding solutions can extend to 3-6 months or more, depending on stakeholder involvement and deliverables.
  • Website design: 8-20 weeks to design and launch a website
  • UX/UI and product design: 2-6 months

Complex digital products, enterprise websites, or large-scale rebrands can extend timelines to 6 months or longer. 

What’s the difference between branding, UX design, and product design?

Branding, UX design, and product design are closely related but focus on different layers of how a business creates and delivers value to customers. 

 BrandingUX designProduct design

How can I evaluate the quality of a design agency's work?

The best design companies demonstrate measurable business impact, strong design processes, and proven results across multiple projects. 

  • Review the agency's portfolio and case studies to look for design projects that delivered measurable outcomes such as 25% higher conversion rates or 35% growth in daily active users after UX improvements. 
  • Evaluate usability and user experience metrics, such as task completion rates that improve from 50% to 90%, time needed to complete key actions, customer satisfaction scores, and reduction in support tickets or errors.  
  • Assess the agency's design process and research approach, check whether it includes stages like discovery and research, user interviews and insights, wireframes and prototypes, usability testing, and iteration and optimization. 
  • Evaluate companies based on how well their work contributes to revenue growth, customer retention, or operational efficiency.
