      Mobile App Development Review from Guiulianna Cespedes

      Our company needed an Android app that could support a mental health platform in a way that felt calm, easy to use, and dependable for daily users. We hired Simpalm to build that product in Kotlin and help us move from concept into something real customers could use. For us, trust and simplicity mattered more than packing in too many features. They took a fairly hands-on role, which was helpful because we were still making product decisions as the project moved. Some weeks I was deeply involved reviewing screens, and other weeks they pushed things forward on their own. That balance worked well. They would usually come back with two or three options instead of just asking what we wanted. We did hit one rough patch around notifications where the first version didn’t behave the way we expected, so that had to be revisited. They fixed it without making the process difficult. The finished app runs smoothly, feels organized, and gave us a much stronger mobile presence on Android. Most importantly, early users found it approachable rather than overwhelming, which was exactly what we wanted.

      Mobile App Development Review from Amanda Chalofsky

      My experience with Simpalm was very good. They made a full prototype of our neuro-wellness app so we could show partners and investors what our system looks like. It matched our brand and showed the flow in a simple way. Their communication was steady, they stayed on time, and they explained things clearly. The prototype helped people understand our idea fast, and it moved our project forward. I felt supported the whole time.

      Mobile App Development Review from Matt Rudnick

      Working with Simpalm has been a really positive experience. We hired them to handle the frontend development of our mobile app for iOS and Android, while our backend was already in place. From the start, their team communicated clearly, stayed organized, and met every deadline we set. They were flexible when we added new features, and their designer’s input really helped improve the look and usability of the app. I appreciated how reliable and easy they were to work with having a U.S.-based team made communication smooth and fast.

      We’ve worked with Saad and his team for close to a year now. They’ve been diligent throughout the process, responsive and communicative. They came in mid-stream to save the project from another development team that didn’t live up to their commitments. I would highly recommend Plego to any company looking to see things move forward on a stalled project or looking for a team that will jump in and start to get things done.

      We recently partnered with Highland on research and prototypes for a new information architecture on a volunteer resources site for our Chapter leaders. Having over 3000 volunteers around the globe can introduce a lot of nuance and complexity to research and design processes. The team at Highland handled it all skillfully - focusing on how to deliver the most clarity and usability to our audience. 10 out of 10, I would recommend working with the Highland team!

      Webflow Review from Lee Wiensch, CAE, CFRE

      We had a great experience working with the team at Highland to develop a new website for the Thoracic Surgery Foundation, a charitable organization aimed at advancing heart and lung health for all. Highland worked with us to re-imagine a dated website with limited functionality, and developed a a gorgeous new site that beautifully reflects the vitality of the organization. We anticipate that our award applicants, donors, surgeons and grateful patients will be able to easily navigate the new site and have a much-improved user experience. Jeff Blanchard and his team were exceptionally good listeners, and worked hard to create solutions for our complicated awards program. They provided good training to our team throughout the process so that we have been able to keep things updated and easily make changes now that the site has launched. I am grateful for their patience and very quick turnaround as we juggled a new strategic plan and new branding, all at the time of the website creation. I have been continually impressed with the expertise and the innovation that Highland brings to a project like ours. It was a pleasure to launch this site -- on time and on budget -- with their excellent work and support.

      Web Design Review from Justyna Chrupek

      We hired them to build a new website. The website was quickly completed in just a couple months, and weve seen markedly positive results from 97 Switchs efforts. It's a new marketing feature that we use on a daily basis. The improved quality has facilitated our communication and made things much easier. Weve received great feedback from our vendors, investors, and customers who want to view our properties. Internally, our staff is excited to see what's going on in our company. We are definitely proud of our new platform. Our executive team is excited to be featured on the new website; previously, they didn't even want their picture shown. Before this redesign, we were almost embarrassed to send out the link. Now, we can comfortably share it with our investors, potential investors, and landlords so they keep track of our updates on a monthly basis. We love how this site presents the face of our company.

      Web Design Review from Adam Greenberg

      We've seen tremendous growth and exposure. The website has generated a number of new leads and weve received tons of cold calls from potential clients. This is thanks to 97 Switchs efforts to increase our digital exposure. We communicate primarily via phone and email and theyre highly responsive. I receive a response to emails within minutes and they get back to me within half an hour if I request a phone call. They're able to conduct face-to-face interactions in order to truly understand the goals and business culture of their clients. This allowed them to create a design that accurately represented our brand. I've had nothing but positive experiences with 97 Switch and Id recommend them to anyone.

      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.

      Our organization, FirstCall Labor Solutions, launched a project to redevelop our website which required us to interview a number of firms to help us. Through this process, Daniel at Windy City Web Solutions stood out and a good blend of visionary and pragmatist. WCWS was able to take our brand identity, business model, and mission statement and translate that into a well thought out, user friendly website. Their process was iterative and allowed for changes right up until we went live. When the project came to a point where a creative art director was necessary, WCWS was able to refer a firm that was effective and efficient. I would recommend WCWS.

Whenever something couldn’t be done exactly as we asked, he took the time to clearly explain why and worked with us to find the best possible solution. In the end, he helped create a website that looks great and that we’re really happy with.

Website Development Company Chicago FAQs

What services does a website development firm in Chicago typically provide?

They provide a broad suite of digital services that help businesses launch, grow, and optimize their online presence, including:

  • Responsive web design and website redesign: Crafting the website's structure, design system, and information architecture from scratch or redesigning an existing website based on the client’s vision, user behavior research, and industry best practices. It is a core component of Chicago web design, where competition across industries demands both visual appeal and performance.
  • Custom web development: Architecting and coding web applications with bespoke functionalities, data models, and system integrations to align with precise business logic and operational workflows.
  • Content management system (CMS) development: Building custom or extending existing platforms (e.g., WordPress, Drupal) to enable non-technical users to create, edit, and manage web content.
  • Front-end development: Coding the visual parts of a website (what users see and interact with) using technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
  • Back-end development: Building server-side functionality, databases, and business logic that power features behind the scenes.
  • Web app development: Creating interactive, dynamic online applications (e.g., dashboards, portals, booking systems).
  • API and Third-Party Integrations: Connecting the site with external systems (e.g., payment processors, CRM platforms, marketing automation tools, and Google Analytics) for expanded functionality.
  • Maintenance and support: Updating platform dependencies, applying security patches, debugging, and optimizing code to ensure the website remains secure, stable, and performant while supporting timely delivery of updates and feature enhancements.

What should I have ready before contacting an agency?

Before contacting a Chicago web development company, prepare the following to save time, cut costs, and get accurate proposals:

  • Business goals: What you want the website or app to achieve (leads, sales, brand awareness).
  • Target audience: Who will use it (age, industry, behavior).
  • Scope and features: Clear list of needed features (eCommerce, login, forms, booking, CMS).
  • Content inventory: Any existing site content, branding, logos, and images.
  • Technical requirements: Preferred CMS/stack, integrations (CRM, payment, Google Analytics tracking).
  • Design references: Examples of sites you like or dislike and why.
  • Budget range: A realistic amount of money you can afford to build a responsive website
  • Timeline: Desired launch date and any hard deadlines.
  • Internal roles: Who on your team will own reviews, content edits, and approvals.

How much does a web developer in Chicago charge for their services?

The cost of web development in Chicago reflects a major metro premium, typically 15-25% higher than the national average. If you hire a boutique agency, expect to pay between $150 and $250/hour for their web development services.

Enterprise-level agencies, on the other hand, charge much higher fees, ranging between $250 and $450. The costs of web development can range anywhere from $5,000 for a simple website to over $500,000 for complex enterprise solutions.

Most web developers Chicago-wide prefer flat-fee project pricing for new builds. In Chicago, these projects typically fall into these tiers: 

Website type Cost Features
Small business site  $5,000-$75,000 
  • 5-20 pages
  • Mobile-responsive design, basic SEO setup, contact forms, and Google Business Profile integration. 
Corporate Website  $15,000-$45,000
  • 20-50 pages 
  • Custom CMS configurations, team profiles, gated content (whitepapers/case studies), and CRM integration (Salesforce/HubSpot). 
ECommerce websites  $30,000-$1,000,000+ 
  • Shopify Plus, Magento (Adobe Commerce), or custom WooCommerce.
  • Product catalogs, secure payment gateways (Stripe/PayPal), inventory management, and AI-driven product recommendations 
Web applications  $50,000-$750,000+ 
  • Tech Stack: React, Node.js, Python/Django, or Next.js. 

Do these agencies provide ongoing maintenance?

Yes, ongoing maintenance is a core service for almost every web development company Chicago-wide. The city is home to many enterprise-level firms and highly competitive local businesses, so agencies will not build a custom site without offering a maintenance plan, as it protects their work and ensures the site stays secure in a high-risk digital environment. 

Based on several industry benchmarks, you can expect to pay the following fees for website maintenance:

Tier Estimated monthly cost What's included
Basic $150-$500 Security patches, core CMS/plugin updates, monthly backups, and uptime monitoring. 
Standard $500-$2,500 All basic features plus content updates (blogging), minor UI tweaks, and monthly SEO/performance reports. 
Enterprise $2,500-$10,000+ Dedicated development hours (10-30+ hrs), priority support, ADA compliance audits, and conversion rate optimization (CRO). 

 

Why is a Chicago website development company more expensive than an offshore one?

While offshore teams in regions like Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, or Latin America offer lower headline rates, the price gap is driven by economic, legal, and operational realities. United States developers require significantly higher wages due to the higher cost of living, taxes, benefits, and competitive demand. On the other hand, many offshore regions have lower labor costs, which is why offshore hourly rates can be 40–70% lower.

Working with a Chicago web development agency eliminates large time-zone gaps and language or cultural friction that can slow decision-making, require more project management, and increase rework costs when teams are offshore. Onshore firms are also more likely to be aligned with U.S. data privacy, accessibility, industry compliance, and contract law expectations. Offshore providers often win on headline hourly rates, but local Chicago development companies tend to deliver better alignment, clearer communication, fewer delays, and lower total effort risk.
