Software Development Review from John Armstrong
ELEKS was able to take our vision and help us deliver an app that empowers retail shareholders to make their voices heard. They’ve brought a depth and breadth of technical expertise and user experience design to challenge us on our assumptions on how people would want to interact with the app. From a mobile development perspective, we wanted to go to market with both an Android and an iPhone simultaneously.

Wladimir Wolinski
Project Manager at Seven Tips UG & Co. KG
5.0★
UI/UX Design Review from Wladimir Wolinski
Communication was smooth either through our teams communication channel or with the project manager via email. We were in daily contact with the UX/UI designer in form of dailies or when we had to clarify some questions. With the project manager, we had a short conversation every 2 weeks to clarify all possible questions.
We personally love to work in a very process-oriented way. Because when we understand how to do something, we usually know how the end result can look like. With Digis, we also had the feeling that they knew what they were doing and how to do it. Every next step was planned from the beginning. If something didn't work in line with our processes, we could readjust it.
We were basically satisfied with everything.

Everything has been delivered on time. Danila our project manager has great communication and always responds in a timely manor. We always receive clear explanations and detailed time logs for the work that is done.

Mobile App Development Review from Gina Levy
Both the developer and tester have exceeded expectations. Their performance is excellent. Together they eliminated bugs, introduced new features, and ensured that the app is working without problems. Previously, we had many complaints in the app store. Since working with this developer and tester, these complaints about the app functioning and bugs have disappeared.
The time zone different is sometimes challenging, since we are in California and they are in Europe.

Chris Milner
CEO at Oakleaf Group at The Oakleaf Group at The Oakleaf Group, LLC

Product Design Review from Chris Milner
UXReactor helped us with a UI/UX research process, which included in-person interviews where they walked users through unboxing, connecting, and using the features of our smart air conditioner. From there, the team took the findings and produced a report for us to make improvements to our app and increase our activation rates. In addition to the report, UXReactor also redesigned some parts of our app using Figma.
The project required a very iterative process, so we required more than one discovery call to get started. In fact, they didn't just work with me; we also integrated our consumer marketing insights team to identify participants. We also collaborated with them to figure out how to recruit the right users based on our target customer profiles.
Additionally,UXReactor recruited participants for us, going through their database to find actual users. Then, they brought a researcher and a designer to interview all the participants on-site in their location. That was actually a challenge because we're a remote team, but we needed a physical location to show the actual air conditioner to the participants.
After the interviews, UXReactor worked with us to go through the results and the report's structure. We had multiple revisions to ensure that we were pulling out the insights I wanted to find on it. After the report was complete, they actually delivered it to our overseas team, doing a presentation that included the insights and recommendations.

Product Design Review from Dhirendra Kumar
The objective was to create a safety release which would activate at certain weights and fit into an already existing design. Porticos was able to create a strong, lightweight and reusable buckle which fit perfectly into the design both functionally and visually. Their involvement improved the overall safety of our therapeutic equipment, and allowed us to develop another complete product line of similar products with other applications.

UI/UX Design Review from Kamil Qui
The project scope was to to refresh the UX and visual design.
The project lead really helped . I was taking care of a lot of other things, so I appreciated getting weekly updates from them. They detailed the work they did and then outlined the next items on the list. They brought up potential roadblocks in advance, making sure wed still meet deadlines.
UXReactor worked very closely with us, so they were an extended team from my perspective. I could call upon and engage them in discussions, and we had daily standups.
They followed a systematic methodology, and that helped us go through the process of doing user research, collecting feedback, and combining that with the existing product features. Using that, we were able to create a framework that allowed us to continue development.

Consumer IoT Review from Mason Ferlic
GripFusion is a sports technology startup developing Tactile Intelligence. Our flagship product, the ForceBall, is the first grip-sensing baseball. We approached Atomic Object with the challenge to build a React Native iPad app to connect with the embedded electronics over BLE and visualize sensor data in real time. Atomic stepped up to the plate and hit a home run! They took early R&D code and we're able to successfully navigate IoT challenges, large amounts of sensor data, and seamless UX. The developer team worked closely with our technical staff to incorporate evolving firmware and hardware improvements. The design team did hundreds of hours of user discovery and product feedback to ensure we deliver a cutting-edge experience. Overall, Atomic has the breadth and depth to tackle complex hardware-software systems.

As a freelance Video Producer, I recently wrapped up another fun project with the folks over at Atomic Object, and I've gotta say, it was an experience worth mentioning. Collaborating with their marketing team on a series of authentic and engaging customer-facing and internal videos was nothing short of fantastic. Their seamless planning and logistics during pre-production, coupled with easy going personalities during production, made the process a breeze. Post-production brought our collective vision to life with meticulous story editing and videos that reflect their unique culture and values. Their team's dedication to kindness, empathy, and diversity made this collaboration not just successful, but truly enjoyable.

What services do product design companies in the USA provide?
Product design companies in the USA provide a spectrum of services aimed at creating new digital or physical products that solve particular user problems. Their expertise is often sought after for assessing whether a proposed solution is feasible from both a technical and a business perspective.
As part of their portfolio, product design firms offer product/user research services, user experience (UX) design, user interface (UI) design, industrial design, prototyping, usability testing, manufacturing, and launch support.
In terms of demand, the research, strategy, and conceptgeneration segment remains dominant, accounting for over39% of the revenue share. As for applications on the rise, the consumablesand accessories segment is projected to witness a CAGR of 11.06% over the forecast period until 2030.
How much does a product design agency charge in the US?
Product design can cost from $5,000 to over $40,000, depending on the project type and how much detail goes into it. When it comes to price per project type, the cost starts around $2,000 for research and can exceed $50,000 for detailed development.
Based on these estimations, here’s what price ranges businesses can anticipate:
Phase
Estimated cost range
R&D
$5,000-$20,000
Conceptual design
$10,000-$30,000
Prototyping
$15,000-$40,000
Product designers typically charge in one of three ways:
By the hour: Charging for each hour spent on the project
A fixed project fee: A single charge for the whole project, regardless of the time spent
A retainer fee: A pre-agreed sum paid regularly to reserve the designer's services over a certain period
What timelines does the service typically follow?
The timeline will depend on the product type and its complexity, and it will vary from product to product. Typically, product design can take from a few weeks to several months and up to 1 year.
The breakdown by phases usually looks like this:
Discovery phase: Between a few days to over 2 weeks
Wireframing: 30-80 days
Iterative design: Depends on the wireframing, it typically takes as 1.5x longer
Responsive design: Depends on the iterative design time, it typically takes as 0.63x longer
What does a typical product design process look like?
A typical product design process follows a structured set of 10 steps to turn an idea into a high-quality, market-ready product.
The process usually looks like this:
Brainstorming: Teams generate and evaluate ideas to solve a specific problem, encouraging creativity before selecting the most viable concept.
Defining the product: The team clarifies the product’s purpose, core problem, and key features, focusing on what matters most and avoiding unnecessary complexity.
User and market research: Designers and analysts study users, competitors, and market trends to ensure the product meets real user needs and has long-term value.
Sketching concepts: Early sketches explore design directions and layouts before committing significant time or resources.
Prototyping: A basic version of the product is created to show structure, functionality, and user interaction, helping catch issues early.
Specifications and requirements: Detailed documentation defines features, technical requirements, timelines, costs, and responsibilities for development.
Pre-production samples/MVP: Initial samples (or MVPs for software) are built to test feasibility, usability, and readiness for production.
Testing and validation: The product is tested with users and stakeholders to identify flaws, gather feedback, and make improvements.
Development and production: The product is fully built using defined specifications, often with agile methods to manage tasks and priorities.
Quality assurance: Final checks ensure the product meets quality standards, works as intended, and aligns with requirements before and after launch.
What kind of results can businesses expect from a product designer?
If a product features a top design, businesses can achieve 32% faster revenue growth and 56% higher total returns. Design-led organizations are also twice as likely to outperform industry benchmarks on innovation and customer satisfaction.
In addition, well-designed products are shown to reduce development and support costs by improving usability and lowering error rates. Studies show that fixing usability issues early can cost up to 10× less than addressing them after launch.
