DesignRush rating logos on Trustpilot and Google

Sources

DesignRush sustains a directory of over 30,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

  • Our dedicated team of agency experts actively searches the web for top-performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence, and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
  • The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.

App Development Consultant Hiring Guide

What is an app development consultant?

An app development consultant is a specialized professional or organization that provides expert advice to businesses and individuals looking to develop or improve their mobile applications. It guides mobile app development projects to ensure the final product aligns with industry standards and achieves optimum functionality and market success.

Mobile app consulting requires a unique combination of technical expertise and strategic thinking, such as:

  • Proficiency in Android, iOS, and cross-platform development, software tools, and programming languages
  • Keen understanding of trends, regulations, and other nuances unique to the mobile app development sector
  • Experience identifying target audiences, features, and unique selling points (USPs) for apps to make them stand out to 4+ million apps on the Apple and Google Play Store
  • Networks of developers, designers, and other professionals that can contribute to the project
  • Expertise in various niches, such as mobile security protocols and integrations with wearable devices

Mobile app consultants help businesses identify and address pain points and challenges, such as:

  • Limited technical expertise in mobile app development and related disciplines
  • Time constraints and delays caused by inefficient development workflows and processes
  • Outdated, bug-ridden, and low-quality applications
  • Lack of purpose, user demand, or a cohesive app development strategy
  • Apps that are unable to scale with growth and user demand

Success story

The following case study is an overview of how a mobile app consultant can help steer app development projects to success:

  • Challenge: The Azerbaijani Kapital Bank needed a modern mobile banking solution to cement its position in the regional financial services market. However, it lacked the experience and in-house talent to develop it. The growing complexity of the bank’s servicing infrastructure also made integrating the new app more difficult.
  • Solution: ScienceSoft, an app development consultancy, provided an expert team to guide the app’s architecture and user interface update. It also offered a tech stack of solutions to speed up development. The agency also recommended programming languages to base the new apps on maximizing banking functionality and making it easier to resolve potential app performance and UX issues.
  • Results: The update of mobile banking apps was fast and cost-effective; it drove high customer satisfaction and engagement, resulting in a new clientele. ScienceSoft was also credited for ensuring the bank’s mobile banking services were uninterrupted and efficient throughout the project.  

What do app development consultants do?

App development consultants provide various services to help clients develop or optimize their mobile applications. The most common services include:

  • Strategic planning
    Determining the client’s goals, target users, features, and unique selling propositions (USPs). Identifying and allocating resources to maximize ROI
  • UI/UX design consulting
    Providing intuitive and user-friendly designs for new or existing apps. Crafting compelling and easy-to-identify visual elements such as screens, buttons, and menus
  • App Store Optimization (ASO)
    Improving the app’s visibility in the app stores through relevant keywords, compelling app titles and descriptions, accurate store listings, and other proven optimization practices
  • Tech stack consulting
    Identifying and compiling a tech stack of tools, third-party libraries, and technologies to develop the app based on its features and technical requirements
  • Quality assurance
    Reviewing the app’s performance, including examining its design, security, and code, to ensure it runs smoothly and without bugs across different types of devices
  • App modernization
    Migrating apps to modern platforms and updating them to support the latest features and technologies
  • Monetization strategies
    Evaluating and implementing strategies for generating revenue, such as in-app purchases or advertising
  • Post-launch support and optimization
    Providing ongoing maintenance, performance monitoring, and other support services

Success story

Our research team has shared the following case study that highlights the services Space-O Technologies provided to help an emerging business build its mobile app.

  • Challenge: H2GO, a bottled water delivery business, wanted to expand its operations online through web and mobile apps. It hired Space-O to envision and develop a complex app ecosystem consisting of different modules and make them work seamlessly together. The driver-side module should also be able to optimize delivery routes in real-time.
  • Solution: After reviewing the requirements, the Space-O development team created a structured documentation of the mobile app flow for the initial development phase. It also recommended several features, such as recurring orders, payment gateways, and customer tracking. It also designed and built a web admin panel to manage the entire operation.
  • Results: The H2GO mobile app has secured over 500 customers with water bottles delivered within 24 hours. The app was praised for its efficiency, low late delivery, and order cancellation rates.

How much do mobile app consulting services cost?

Mobile app developers often bundle mobile app consulting services costs with end-to-end app development packages, which can range from $80,000 to $250,000 depending on the scope and complexity of the project.

Here’s a more detailed view of the costs you can incur from app development consultancy services as part of a broader app development project:

  • Basic mobile applications: $80,000 and up
  • App database development: $100,000-$150,000
  • Advanced apps with complex features and integrations: $150,000-$250,000
  • Gaming apps: $100,000-$250,000 or higher

Application development consultants also use different pricing models that have their distinct advantages and disadvantages:

  • Hourly rate: Charges per hour of service rendered. Offers a high degree of flexibility, but it can be difficult to determine the total cost, especially for long-term projects.
  • Project-based: A fixed fee is set for the entire project duration. Simple and transparent but can be risky if the project’s scope and objectives change.
  • Value-based: The fee is based on the value delivered to the client, but it can be difficult to quantify or justify.
  • Hybrid pricing: A combination of different pricing methods implemented during different project phases. It can minimize the disadvantages of each model but can be difficult to track.

The top app development consultants on DesignRush charge an average of $15 per hour. 20% of agencies accept budgets under $1,000, offering boutique mobile app development consulting services for startups and small businesses.

Why should I hire an app development consultant?

You should hire an app development consultant because it offers many significant benefits, including access to expertise, cost and time efficiency, risk mitigation, and access to the wider mobile app development community.

Advantages you can get from hiring a professional mobile app consultant include:

  • Access to in-depth knowledge and experience in mobile app development

Success story

You can see the benefits that mobile app consulting services can provide to their clients in the following success story:

  • Challenge: Food delivery service Mealed decided to develop a mobile app and consulted an expert in the field - Suffescom. It envisioned an app that would facilitate food orders while providing access to advanced features like custom filters, live order tracking, and social media integrations.
  • Solution: Based on the client’s requirements, Suffescom recommended building an interactive panel to manage customers. It also implemented an advanced dashboard to manage catalogs and content and integrated in-app chats and calls, multiple language support, and payment gateways.
  • Results: Since its launch, the Mealed app has been downloaded over 10,000 times and placed over 50,000 orders worldwide. The client also reported the following improvements:
    • 56% increase in food orders

How do I choose the best mobile app consulting service for my business?

To choose the best mobile app consulting service for your business, we recommend the following steps:

  1. Define your app’s goals and budget
    Outline the goals you want to achieve with your app, its features, and your intended audience. Establish a realistic budget for the entire project.

    Agency platforms like DesignRush are excellent places to start your search. They feature detailed information on consultants, including their websites, portfolios, and customer reviews. Explore your options and shortlist possible candidates.

Check it to see if the agency provides what’s necessary for your app development requirements.
  4. Evaluate their expertise
    Check if your prospect offers services that align with your project’s requirements. Review their case studies or request for one that’s relevant to your industry or line of business.
  5. Request proposals
    Send out a request for proposal (RFP) detailing the project’s scope, timeline, budget, needed services, and updated contact details prospects can use to reach you.
  6. Conduct interviews
    Ask about the agency’s consulting experience, areas of specialization, and how they intend to achieve the project’s goals.
  7. Communication and collaboration
    Assess how the agency communicates with your team and whether their culture, values, and work ethic align with yours.
  8. Ask for references
    Request for client references that can vouch for their capabilities and reputation. Designrush agency profiles also contain accurate, in-depth customer testimonials to review.
  9. Negotiate terms
