How, Where & When to Find an App Developer for Your Business

How, Where & When to Find an App Developer for Your Business

app developer
App development can be a difficult journey. There are a lot of variables to consider, platforms to build for, and problems to solve along the way. But, after your initial brainstorming and concept development, the biggest hurdle to overcome is finding an app developer who is the right fit. How do you find an experienced developer who will take your plans and turn them into a usable app? Where do you find experienced developers? The following will help you on your way to getting an app developed for yourself or your company.

How to Find an App Developer

The marketplace, at the moment, is flooded with app developers, whether it’s small companies that specialize in developing apps for businesses, or freelancers looking to find work making apps. Depending on the size of your app project, there are a number of avenues you can go, from outsourcing to a developer or development company to hiring your own app development team. When hiring developers, understanding the basics of their job can be key. Do some research online to discover exactly what they do, what languages are commonly used, what skill sets are needed, the average costs, etc. The more you know, the better your interview outcomes will be. You should also be concerned with the experience that app developers have. You likely don’t want to be working with someone who has never developed an app before, especially if you are only hiring a single person for it, or if you don’t understand enough yourself. Next, you need to be clear on your communication with any potential developers; make sure they understand what you need. As well, always ask for references when you are interviewing, and look at their portfolio. Many companies will outsource overseas for app development in order to be cost-competitive or to simply keep their own costs low. Ask the company you’re interviewing if they do this as in the end, it can be cumbersome for you if there are language barriers or multiple people needing to be on each call, time zone differences, etc.

Where to Find an App Developer

There are a number of places where you can find an app developer, but most will lead to headaches. CTRL+ALT Digital has a team of in-house developers who can handle any application development needs, on budget and on time (headache-free). The good news is that if you’re reading this blog, you’ve already found your next app development partner! Not sold yet? Some companies spin their wheels asking for recommendations or searching through various websites to try to find developers, but end up running into a long list of inexperienced developers who overpromise and underdeliver. Wherever you search, make sure it leads to a reputable developer with a long history of providing great results.

When to Find an App Developer

It’s important to know when the time is right to hire an app developer. In order to be the most efficient in your search for an app developer, it’s most helpful to have a concept in place and even some wireframes if possible. Do some research into what you exactly want the app to do and its purpose (i.e. what problems will it solve?). Are you building it for an in-house management system? Are you building it to make purchasing goods and services from you easier? Figure out the target problem you are attempting to solve for your app, whether in-house or in the general public app market, then determine who your target audience is going to be.
