Who can benefit from MVP development?

An MVP approach works for businesses of any size and complexity.
Why? The MVP approach makes it possible to reduce risks of building a product that appeals to no one.
Savvy businesses avoid spending a couple of years building a fully featured product. Instead, they release a minimum, functional product with key features to test their assumptions and decide on further steps.
MVP development delivers business outcomes fast and attains higher ROI rates.
Truly a win-win for you.

questions from our clients

What is an MVP?

Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in software development means the smallest functional product possible. An MVP solution contains only a basic design and core functionality. An MVP is usually reduced to one key feature solving one crucial problem of the target audience.

Why is an MVP important for startups?

In short, startups save costs while testing the waters.
Instead of spending a fortune on a fully featured product that might attract no interest, startups focus on a key problem facing their audience. If their assumption is correct, they can then add more functionality and custom design to attract more customers.

The result? Higher customer appeal; lower product development costs.
How much does it cost to build an MVP?

The price depends on two crucial things: feature list complexity and the development provider’s location. An MVP of medium complexity requires 950 – 2,500 working hours. The average Central/Eastern European hourly rate is $50. MVP development costs a startup from $47,500 to $125,000

Please note numbers might vary based on requirements of each project.
Why do startups outsource MVP development?

They can start immediately when they hire an outsourcing MVP development company.

When startup founders plan to develop software on their own or assemble an internal team, they add development and/or managerial activities to their to-do list. In its turn, this might extend the delivery time.

An outsourcing company promptly adds missing tech expertise. The outsourcing company is responsible for people and process management, saving time that startup founders can spend on product development, marketing, and promotional activities.

A company’s reputation is crucial. Avoid delays. Hire a reliable, experienced company to launch faster.

What makes a good MVP?

Consider these four crucial parameters:

  1. MVPs always work! No exceptions. Users will not want to use half-baked software.
  2. Provide straightforward UX. The fewer steps towards goal completion, the better.
  3. Users must enjoy using your product. Even if it contains basic design and functionality, it must be nice and polished. Otherwise, they would not want to return to it.
  4. Focus on what users DO rather than on what they say when analyzing feedback. This helps you identify and improve flaws.
What should an MVP include?

An MVP should include ONLY essential, must-have features. Everything else is not part of scope.
Are you not sure about a certain feature?

Follow this exercise:

Consider each feature on your list and ask this question:
Will people still buy from me without this feature?
No. Keep it on your list.
Yes. Schedule it for some time in the future.
