      Web Design Review from Helen Guzenko

      We engaged U1CORE to develop and build a scalable, multi-sided marketplace platform. They were fully responsible for the product design and front end, while our team handled the back end, and their expertise in the marketplace space was evident from day one they understood the dynamics of interaction between buyers and sellers without needing a detailed explanation of the underlying principles. They provided a needs analysis, complete UX/UI for all key workflows, a reusable design system, and a responsive front-end built on React, integrated with our CMS. The platform launched on schedule, the time it took to onboard sellers was significantly reduced, and the design system accelerated our internal work on future features. Project management was top-notch clear sprints, proactive communication, and quick responses when we had to reevaluate priorities. It felt as though we were working with an extension of our own team. We highly recommend them to anyone building a complex marketplace product.

      Web Design Review from Dmytro Romaniuk

      Working with U1CORE on our investment banking website was an extraordinary experience. The process began with an initial meeting, during which they carefully studied our specific needs. They then provided a detailed project estimate, including the scope of work and timeframe, perfectly tailored to our project. They took care of every detail, and we were able to agree on all aspects, especially the inclusion of a non-disclosure agreement, which was extremely important to us. The U1CORE team was exceptional. We were introduced to a project manager who was always available and ready to help with any questions. Communication was seamless throughout the project. The designers assigned to our project were highly skilled professionals, which was reflected in the quality of their work. The project was completed on time, without any delays, which was a big plus for us. The end result exceeded our expectations the website was not only visually impressive, but also functional and tailored to the needs of our industry. Overall, U1CORE's attention to detail, efficiency, and professionalism made this collaboration a great one. We are very pleased with the result and highly recommend them for any web design needs.

      UI/UX Design Review from Alexey Cherevuta

      Working with U1CORE was an easy and productive experience. They took full ownership of the design side of the project, while our team handled the development. Their designs were delivered quickly, clearly structured, and matched business needs perfectly. Communication was smooth, the team was responsive to every request, and deadlines were always met. Thanks to this collaboration, we launched a product that was not only functional but also user-friendly and visually strong. I would gladly recommend U1CORE as a reliable design partner for joint projects.

      Working with Dylan is a new experience. I've worked with other designers who just take what was given and send their interpretation back. Not Dylan. Dylan took the time to really understand what I was trying to accomplish, suggested alternatives, worked with feedback, and at the end of the day I had a very marketable product that no one else has thought of. I highly recommend Dylan.

      Product Design Review from Migael Dannhauser

      I chose to work with DMC due to their proven track record in designing products with similar complexity to what I envisioned. A bonus was that some of their team members were based nearby, making in-person meetings convenient, although not strictly necessary to complete the project. While the initial complexity of the project was slightly underestimated, DMC quickly adapted, presenting me with several refined design concepts. They ultimately delivered a striking design that captured the inspiration behind the product. As we reached the final stages of prototyping, DMC also connected me with a trusted manufacturer to handle production, ensuring a smooth transition from design to manufacturing.

      Product Design Review from Lelac Almagor

      At every stage, the team at DMC has combined extraordinary communication and teamwork with innovative, elegant engineering to develop our initial product idea into something far better than we could have imagined. Their staff are able to bridge the gap between the technical aspects of the project, and the human needs of the users - and make it look easy. They can receive a few user snapshots or a vague description of user feelings - and come back to the next meeting having precisely identified the problem and come up with multiple technical, carefully thought out solutions. They keep our team tethered to the practical realities of the manufacturing process but never give up on the searching for a design solution that makes our wildest dreams possible. Their enthusiasm and investment in the user need for the product makes working together energizing and inspiring. Working with DMC has been transformative for our project. We feel very fortunate that we found this partnership - cannot overstate the impact for our team.

      I couldn't be happier with the incredible work equal did on my website! From the very beginning, their team demonstrated a deep understanding of my vision and translated it into a stunning, user-friendly, and highly functional website. Their attention to detail, creativity, and technical expertise were evident in every step of the process. What truly stood out was their exceptional communication and responsiveness. They kept me updated throughout the project, welcomed feedback with open arms, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the website aligned perfectly with my goals. The result is a beautifully designed website that not only looks amazing but performs seamlessly, enhancing the user experience for my visitors. I've already received countless compliments on the design and functionality! I highly recommend equal to anyone looking for a web design and development agency that truly cares about their clients and delivers outstanding results. Thank you for exceeding my expectations and bringing my vision to life!

      Design Services Review from Jason Sutor

      Equal Design started with good design process and elicited all of the needed workflow decision making up front. From the time the contract started to when I had workflows to review was under a week. Despite being in very different time zones they were very responsive to change requests and making prompt updates. There were no communication issues with any of the workflows or screens - very minor tweaks to grammar and wording, but otherwise most of the generated screen text was correct the first time. UI design was also prompt - upon approving the workflows we rapidly had several different design approaches to choose from. From the approved workflows they quickly had all of the application screens generated including several animations. After some back and forth we had a full mobile app UI/UX design in a matter of weeks. I would totally recommend Equal Design and would work with them again.

      Product Design Review from Kevin Pfeil-Schmid

      We have been working with this engineering partner for several years on the development of readout electronics for printed sensor technology, and our experience has been consistently outstanding. As one of their larger clients, we have scaled up to ten engineers working simultaneously across different disciplines, and the quality has always remained exceptional. Their team brings deep expertise in analog and digital electronics, sensor signal conditioning, embedded firmware, software development, and mechanical design. They understand the unique challenges of printed and flexible sensorsnonlinear responses, environmental drift, calibration strategies, and low-noise readoutand have repeatedly delivered robust, production-ready solutions. Their support in EMI/EMC pre-compliance and troubleshooting has been especially valuable. Their system-level understanding significantly reduced our certification risk and improved overall product reliability. Communication has always been clear, proactive, and efficient. Their engineers integrate seamlessly into our internal workflows, manage milestones professionally, and consistently deliver on time. They are flexible, fast in responding to challenges, and highly reliable during intense development phases. After years of collaboration, we can say with confidence that they are one of the most capable and trustworthy engineering partners for complex sensor electronics. We highly recommend them to any company seeking strong technical expertise, scalability, and long-term commitment.

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.
Concept development 2-4 weeks Cefining business goals, conducting market analysis, and performing UX research to understand user needs.
