Here at Gooey we have a very open policy around our pricing for digital development projects as can be seen by a price guide here. We also regularly check the prices from competitors around the world to both ensure we stay competitive but also to make our agency clients aware of the differences in not only cost but the value received from different suppliers.
Below is an overview of pricing based on the specification below which we sent out to different outsourced web development teams across the globe. We’ve also developed a guide to using foreign developer resources to aide you in making the right decision, this can be found here.
The Brief
The piece of work we asked each agency to cost up was based around moving the Gooey handbook onto an online site; https://handbook.gooey.dev
The Costs
Looking at the different regions these are the costs we got back from the project, Gooey’s cost for the same piece of work is listed below.
Gooey = £1,200
India
Outsource Agency 1 = $6,406 (£5,193 in current currency rates)
Ukraine
Outsource Agency 2 = $1,890 (£1,532)
Therefore you can see that prices in India and Ukraine can be extremely high; the India quote included $2.2k alone within the price for creating the template
The Ukraine costs were more in line with our own but the time difference obviously makes this slightly harder from a communications point of view especially if you need to discuss any specific points around the brief.
Europe
Outsource Agency 3 = $2,088 (£1,692)
This agency are based in Bulgaria and have been around for many years but despite being based over in Eastern Europe their quote came out slightly higher than our own.
