We are trying to propose our customer flexible pricing to fit their
particular situation. Our services are often based on innovative methodologies
and technology to minimize an effective price for the customer.
Dedicated developer program
Under one of the most frequently requested approaches, we assign dedicated
developer(s) in our office. Developers will work for the customer for as
long as needed. In such model we charge US$ 2,500/month for each
developer. Of course we charge only for the actual hours spent in incomplete
months. We provide discounts for the customer who are willing to pay upfront
and/or order multiple developers. We can offer the following rates:
US$ 2,300/month (effective $14/hour) provided that you pay upfront
for the next month.
US$ 2,200/month (effective $13.3/hour) provided that you pay
upfront for the next month and order at least 3 developers.
US$ 2,000/month (effective $12/hour) provided that you pay upfront
for the next month and order at least 6 developers with minimum 6 months
commitment.
Fixed price contracts
For the customers who know exactly what must be achieved and who therefore
prefer to know in advance what will be the cost we can make fixed price
proposals. In such situations we usually estimate projects in hours and then
charge $20/hour. Depending on the size of the project after presenting a
prototype we may require 30% advance payment and intermediate payments. Of
course, the exact payment schedule is negotiable.
For science-intensive projects such as projects in bioinformatics and
systems biology our prices may be higher.
Iterative development
Please don't be misled just by the numbers. Apart from low prices our
development with us is usually based on iterative principles. Under iterative
model we often supply deliverables weekly and after each and every iteration
customer is free to say "Stop". From our experience such approach may cut the
costs up to 70% from initially planned budget.
Do the calculations yourself: with upfront payments and using
iterative development you can achieve effective hourly rate of just
US$ 4/hour! Where else can you find such offering for highly qualified
Russian developers - developers who typically possess Master's Degrees from one
of the most prestigious Russian universities?
