Website or mobile app: which does your business need?
Published · 4 min read
Most businesses need a fast website first. Here is when an app is worth it and what the in between options look like.
Start with the question you are solving
A website is how new customers find you and decide to get in touch. An app is something existing customers choose to install because they use it often. If most of your customers visit once or twice a year, a website will serve them better.
When an app makes sense
An app is worth it when people use it every week, when it needs features like the camera or offline access, or when it replaces a manual process like booking repeat jobs or tracking orders. It also means app store reviews and updates on two platforms.
The middle ground
A web app runs in the browser and can be added to the home screen like an app, with no store needed. For many businesses this gives customers an app feel for much less cost and upkeep.
Our websites start at $2,000 and web and mobile apps start at $5,000. If you are not sure which you need, describe the problem through the contact form and we will tell you honestly.
