We do our best to provide you with the exceptional quality of software development, make the process smooth and transparent and answer all your questions.
Check out some of these frequently asked questions about NERDZ LAB software product design and development services:
The choice of the pricing model depends on many factors, including project duration, budget, goals, complexity, and the level of control you’d like to have. Learn more >
The time and material pricing model assumes you pay only for the time and resources spent on your project. Learn more >
A fixed price model is based on an estimate of the volume of work that needs to be done. Learn more >
A dedicated software development team model is often used when you need to have dedicated developers working as a team or side by side with your in-house team. The client and the vendor agree on a fixed monthly payment for the entire team, and the client can either manage the work process on their side or have a dedicated PM as a part of the team. No matter how many hours the team puts in, the monthly cost is always the same. Learn more >
Based on your project’s type, we can offer a fixed price, a time and material, or a dedicated development team pricing model. Learn more about each pricing model here >
Fixed price offers complete predictability since all the details are thoroughly discussed and documented. In short, fixed price means the fixed scope of work, clear delivery schedule, and strict deadlines. Learn more >
The major benefit is that you manage and control the development team and can upscale or downscale it when needed. Besides, you don’t have to cover administrative costs, yearly bonuses, sick leaves, or vacations. Learn more >
You pay only for the work done, and you can play with priorities, remove or add features to keep the total cost in check and ensure the product still fits the market demand. Learn more >
You can break your project down into several stages, and we can agree that the pricing model can change on each stage depending on your needs. For example, you might want to choose a fixed price for the MVP development. After the release, you can go with either time and material or a dedicated development team pricing model to develop additional functionalities. Learn more >
An estimate is the total number of hours it will take to develop an app. A timeline is a defined period that marks the start and the end of a specific project. It’s divided into tasks and subtasks that have to be completed within the set deadlines. Some of these tasks depend on each other, others can be done simultaneously. For example, the front-end team gets down to work after proper designs are available, while the back-end engineers can develop iOS and Android apps in parallel. The front-end developer makes final adjustments after the back-end is completed.
Feel free to send us your details to get an accurate estimate and timeline for your project.
Steps in the mobile app development process differ depending on the complexity of the application, but your mobile development project should include the following stages:
To start working on a project, we have to gather a team of professionals with the relevant expertise that best matches the task at hand. Some of the key experts might be involved in other projects, so there might be a short wait time. But usually, the allocation process doesn’t take longer than one month.

The quality assurance process should start early in the software development life cycle, ideally as soon as a project team receives the requirements, and be integrated into every stage of software development. At NERDZ LAB, in terms of our QA services, we follow these stages: test planning and estimation, test analysis, test design, test implementation and execution, test completion, as well as test monitoring and control, which can be applied to any software component, at any testing stage, and in parallel with any other testing activity. Learn more here.
We always ask our clients to rely on our experience in software testing services and let us prove how thoroughly we analyze, implement, and control test activities and tasks. At the same time, we ask our clients to take an active part in providing and discussing documents of project requirements, as they’re critical to ensuring the expected outcome of the entire software development project. Learn more about the testing process here.
Our team has helped numerous companies to release products with high-quality code, well-tested usability, and a memorable user experience. We build our software testing services on best industry standards (like ISTQB certification), rely on automated testing as a practical approach within CI/CD paradigm, and work with a broad array of real devices and professional testing tools. On top of that, we thoroughly plan and carefully implement the above-mentioned test activities and tasks in a timely manner. Find out more here.
We insist that any project scope must always include QA services. Unless a client has an in-house QA team, we attract our QA specialists to participate at any stage of SDLC. First, they compile test cases to cover the requirements. Second, they’re busy with the ongoing testing so that the programmers can immediately address found issues, saving project time this way. Next, before the release, it’s the regression testing time to ensure there are no bugs left before deploying to production.
A quality assurance engineer is a professional who is aware of all potential roadblocks on the project and can identify them at an early stage. They speed up the process of development, as developers do not have to waste time re-testing the app in progress.
Usually, there are four people in a team. A front-end developer who builds user interfaces for iOS, Android, or web projects. A back-end developer who’s responsible for the server-side that powers the front-end. A QA engineer checking the level of quality throughout the process. And, finally, a project manager who makes plans, tracks the development process, assesses risks, and manages the entire team.
Feel free to send the details of your project to us or book a call with our expert, and we’ll prepare a quote and gather a reliable team that would best fit your needs.
We firmly believe that one software engineer cannot develop a product for several platforms at the same time. The platforms differ in many ways, and it’s hardly possible to stay on top of all the latest trends. That’s why we follow the one platform, one developer principle.
Please send the details of your project or schedule a call whenever it’s convenient for you, and together we’ll decide on the best model for your case.
The front-end is all about the visual side of the project, the one that users interact with. The back-end is what goes behind the scenes: it collects and processes data and then transfers it back to the client side. Roughly, the data do not go directly from user A to user B—they always pass through the back-end first.
When choosing between Android and iOS app development, consider the two platforms’ pros and cons based on your business needs. Start by pinpointing your budget, time to market, and the audience you want to reach. After defining your target users and app functionality, you will know how to assess each platform’s benefits and drawbacks.

Based on our experience, we can say that cross-platform development is not nearly the same quality as native development. There’s a lack of support from Apple or Google, and graphics look like a website rather than a mobile app. It’s often said that cross-platform development takes half as much time as native apps, but in fact, it’s only 20-30 percent faster. The project estimate might become shorter, but the project timeline gets longer. Unlike native development, when two developers work in parallel and independently, there’s only one developer working on a cross-platform app—and even if there are two or three of them, they won’t be able to work independently anyway.
