    Designli Reviews & Testimonials

    • John Laporte
      John Laporte Founder at Vets on Point
      5.0★

      Mobile App Development Review from John Laporte

      Designli helped us define the requirements, features, and user experience for an app for our motorcycle organization. They produced technical documentation and a clickable prototype covering navigation, member tools, and safety features. They were responsive, delivered on time every time, and turned our broad concepts into something people could actually click through. The prototype got our stakeholders aligned, earned internal approval, and set us up for engineering, and working out design questions early should save us rework later.

    • Brandi Heffner
      Brandi Heffner Founder at BuckHub
      5.0★

      Mobile App Development Review from Brandi Heffner

      Designli built our SaaS product from scratch, using AI to speed up development, with AWS and Cloudflare in the stack, and they also handle our hosting and maintenance. We had a working MVP in just 30 days and have kept adding features since. In the first 60 days they went beyond what we expected, largely because they took the time to really learn our business and our market. Coordination through Basecamp and Google Meet has kept everything organized.

    • Thomas Simmons
      Thomas Simmons CEO at Simmons Driving School
      5.0★

      Mobile App Development Review from Thomas Simmons

      Designli took over app development and marketing for our driving school, with the goal of building a product we could eventually offer to other schools. Within two and a half months, the app was up and running in our own school. Their project management is excellent, and they push back constructively, thinking through what we actually need instead of building every request as-is.

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.

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.
