      Software Development Review from Michael S.

      We selected Azumo to develop our software. We transitioned from another development company, so Azumo was initially responsible for migrating our existing code and environments. We are currently still working with Azumo as our nearshore software development team on adding new items to our software.

      We partnered with Build Me App for two projects: developing clickable prototypes of our mobile application on Figma and creating a mobile application from scratch. Its team, known for high ratings and experience, delivered a prototype that accurately represented our vision. Additionally, the agency successfully designed a pitch deck that met our objectives. For the second project, Build Me App developed a mobile app from scratch, managing design, functionalities, and backend infrastructure, delivering exceptional solutions. We value the agency's expertise, dedication, and professionalism.

      Branding Review from Abby Smith, TMP

      Our business has been working with id8 since late 2023, and their team has always been timely, organized and professional. The first time they unveiled our new logo, it was like Christmas morning! Since then, we've worked with them on complex projects like building a new website, coordinating photo shoots and updating signage for our office. Those are just a few of the things they have done for us, and they have always been so thoughtful and diligent in how they approach each project. Their approach is rooted in research and data, so we can feel confident we are making the right choices. Our meetings are always fun and lively, because the whole team is so personable. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with them!

      I have been working with Id8 for a few years now and it has been a truly wonderful experience. The team consistently goes above and beyond to accommodate our needs and is always brainstorming new ideas to elevate our marketing and branding presence. They are incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. Id8 has become a trusted ally for our company and we look forward to continuing our partnership with them.

      Adam N's Review Sourced from Google

      id8 was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had coordinated with Brandi on getting a new logo made for multiple avenues I wanted to pursue and she was able to help me design a logo/brand that I'm totally in love with. From the very beginning and all the way to the end, she was always able to deliver, provide feedback and execute stunning design options that were all so good. She was also able to take my logo/branding goals of being versatile and transforming those ideas into concepts that spoke volume. Though making a decision on just one design out of a couple was hard in the end, I eventually went with one that had the best look and feel that represented what my brand needed to be. I would highly recommend id8 for any graphic design work as they are awesome at creating designs that have a deeper philosophical meaning that will make anyone appreciate the reasonings behind what they create.

      Web Design Review from Julian Thiers

      Peppermint helped us redesigning Payfree's website and web apps from the ground up. Their work included a fresh visual identity, UX/UI design and custom graphics explaining how our RFID platform supports checkout and store operations. What impressed us most was that they approached the project not only as a design task, but as a positioning challenge. They translated a technical, integration-heavy product into a clear and approachable story for retail, operations and IT decision-makers. Amazing work. The collaboration was smooth and well organized. Deadlines were met, feedback was implemented quickly and potential issues were raised early. The result gives us a strong and consistent foundation for our website, sales materials, marketing and outreach. We would gladly work with Peppermint again and do so on a regular basis.

      I contacted Raccoopack to help us analyze the user experience of an app feature for collecting wildlife observations that hasn't been getting the participation and user retention that we'd hoped. Raccoopack has been great to work with! George took the time to understand our needs and then explored the issues thoroughly. He has provided us with tools to determine how we can improve our app. He responded to our questions and has provided us with contract deliverables in a timely manner manner.

The team is knowledgeable when it comes to web development and is courteous and friendly. You can tell they have years of experience, but they are able to communicate everything clearly and smoothly. I would definitely work with them again as my partner and I have a great idea for an app as well.

We had an excellent experience working with George,Nobel and their team.

Beyond the launch, Raccoopack has continued to provide outstanding post-launch support, promptly addressing any issues and ensuring the app runs smoothly.

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Product Design Firms

What services do product design companies offer?

They offer a broad, end-to-end set of services that combine strategy, engineering, and user experience to bring physical and digital products to market faster and with lower risk.

Their key services include:

  • Product strategy and discovery: Accounting for over 39% of revenue share in 2023, this concerns defining what product to build and why, based on market demand, business goals, and user needs. It includes market research, product positioning, concept validation, and early-stage product development planning.
  • UX research and user experience (UX Design): Understanding user behavior and designing experiences that are intuitive and efficient, relying on UX research, usability testing, journey mapping, and behavior analysis for digital products and services.
  • Industrial design: Designing physical products with a focus on usability, aesthetics, and manufacturability. It includes form development, ergonomics, materials selection, and collaboration with industrial designers.
  • Engineering and technical design: Translating design concepts into functional, manufacturable solutions using engineering principles, including mechanical engineering, system architecture, feasibility analysis, and design for manufacturing.
  • CAD modeling and prototyping: Product designers create digital and physical models to test, refine, and validate product concepts before production.
  • Branding, visual, and experience design: Aligning the product with a cohesive brand identity and consistent user experience across all touchpoints, while relying on graphic design, packaging, and integration with digital marketing and web development.
  • Product launch, optimization, and growth: Supporting the product after design to ensure successful launch and continuous improvement.

How much do product design services cost?

The cost of hiring product design companies varies widely depending on scope, complexity, and the level of expertise.

Product design firms typically charge $100-$450 per hour for full-service work that includes UX design, engineering, and product development.

Project-based pricing:

  • Small projects (e.g., concept design, UX audit): $5,000-$15,000
  • Mid-size projects, such as UX/UI design for a mobile app or web platform: $30,000-$100,000
  • End-to-end product development: $100,000+

What's the difference between product design, industrial design, and UX design?

The best product design agencies combine all three into a collaborative approach, ensuring your product is functional, manufacturable, intuitive, and competitive in the market.

Are there hidden costs I should be aware of when hiring product designers?

Yes, you may expect some additional or hidden costs, although most reputable product design companies will present clear pricing.

According to the Project Management Institute, projects with unclear requirements are 2-3 times more likely to exceed budget and timelines. 

Cost category  Estimated cost range
Scope creep and extra iterations 10% to 30% of the total project budget
UX research and testing $5,000-$25,000+ per round
Prototyping and engineering work  $2,000-$50,000+
Third-party tools and integrations  $500-$5,000+ per project
Post-launch support and updates  $5,000-$15,000+ per month
Manufacturing preparation $10,000-$100,000+

The best designers with proven expertise will be transparent about these factors and help you plan for the true cost of product design, instead of just the initial estimate. 

What should I look for in a product design firm's portfolio?

When evaluating an agency portfolio, you're assessing whether the team can deliver measurable business outcomes, handle complexity, and align with your product goals.

Therefore, look for the following:

  1. Proven business impact: Look for case studies that show measurable results. A strong case study might show a 30-50% increase in conversion rates after UX redesign or a 20% reduction in churn for a SaaS product.
  2. End-to-end product design process: Top product designers should demonstrate a complete design process, starting from research, through ideation, prototyping, and testing, to launch. 
  3. Depth in UX research and user-centered design: A strong portfolio should show how the team understands user needs. High-quality projects often include 5-10 user interviews per testing round, which is standard for identifying most usability issues.
  4. Experience with similar product types or industries: An agency with 3-5 similar projects in your space is more likely to understand constraints and speed up delivery.
  5. Technical capability and engineering integration: A strong portfolio should show evidence of CAD modeling, prototyping, or engineering work, integration with mechanical engineering or development teams. 
  6. Complexity and problem-solving ability: A renowned product design studio showcases how it solves complex challenges. Projects involving multiple user roles or workflows indicate higher capability.

How do product design companies measure success?

They measure success based on real business impact, user experience, and product performance: 

  1. User experience (UX design) performance 
    Measured through usability metrics like task success rate, time-on-task, and user satisfaction. Better UX can improve task completion rates by up to 80%, according to Nielsen Norman Group. 
  2. Conversion and revenue growth 
    Design improvements are tracked through conversion rates, sales, and funnel performance. Small UX changes can increase conversions by 10–25%, according to Forrester. 
  3. User engagement and retention 
    Active users, session duration, and churn rate show how well the product meets user needs. PwC reports that UX improvements can boost retention by up to 30%
  4. Time-to-market and efficiency 
    A strong design process reduces delays and rework. Companies with mature design practices can cut development time by up to 50%, according to McKinsey. 
  5. Product adoption and market fit 
    Success is measured by how quickly users adopt the product and how often key features are used. 
  6. Return on investment (ROI) 
    Design is evaluated based on revenue growth and cost savings. Design-led companies achieve 32% higher revenue growth and 56% higher shareholder returns, according to McKinsey.

What is the typical timeline for a product design project?

The timeline for a product design project depends on the scope and complexity, as well as whether you're building digital or physical products.

Most product design firms follow a structured timeline ranging from a few weeks to several months, as presented in the table below.

Phase Timeline Process
Discovery and research 1-3 weeks Defining business goals, conducting market analysis, and performing UX research to understand user needs.
