·         For internal staff use
·         For customers

So, how do you begin to budget? Here are a few guidelines to help you plan accordingly.


Factors That Impact Your Budget Planning

·         Goals: The more you understand your project, the less you have to worry in choosing a Mobile Apps Development Company.
·         Business Goals: Ask few questions to yourself. Why are you doing this project? How will the successful conclusion of the project impact your business? Will traffic increase? Will sales increase? 
·         Functional Goals: In case you need more than one app for different platform, specifically and tactically identify the goals for each app? Who will be your audience? In other words, should you approach android app developers or iOS developer team?
·         Basic App Requirements: An apps development budget depends on a lot of things that include:
·         User Experience: Will mobile app developers repurpose the existing functions and workflows? Or will your mobile apps development firm need to add time to the schedule to help you define a new workflow (UX)?
·         Internal vs. External: In general, internal apps require less design time compared to customer based ones. 

Mobile app Features: Before you get to meet professional App Developers in New York be prepared by knowing three important factors: functionality of your application, service and connectivity and platform and devices (bear in mind, more platform- high budget!)
