It’s not just for evaluating them, also for you to make sure you can hire the right one who had
experienced in relevant field. Because if you don’t, imagine bringing on a developer with years of
experience in building Android apps to develop an iOS app, how terrible!
Besides, when evaluating the portfolios of developers, here are a few questions you need to highly
consider:
– What kind of applications they have built? (yup, I have mentioned above how important it is)
– On which mobile platform they have been creating the most mobile apps?
– What the clients said about their works?
Star t with a small talkIf developers don’t know what purpose that your app should serve, they can not create an effective one
for you. That’s why communication becomes a thing of matter.
You need to clearly specify all the details of your project and watch the developer’s reactions closely
to find out whether they have interest in your business or not. Because if they don’t, they may not give
their best innovative ideas that they could.
The more you communicate with each other, the smoother the process will go, which consequently
results in getting the preferred outcome.

Developing a mobile app might require various tools, technologies & platforms. Make sure that the
developer is familiar with all these.
However, please kindly note that fluency in an impressive number of program won’t make or break that
developer. The one with an eagerness to learn will always serve you better.

Make sure the prices
You wouldn’t buy a car without knowing how much it costs, right?
Every developer has their different pricing structure, so what you should ask is whether it’s a flat
project price or hourly rate is used. The most important thing is that you have to know exactly what
you’re paying for. Asking for an detailed list of deliverables included in the price is the only way to get
clear about how much your app’s actually going to cost you.
However, do not let the price drives you. You have to know that an app is always a long-term
investment in your business and future, and therefore should be treated as such. If you are looking for
someone offering cheaper quote, your app will look cheap as well. Whatever you are thinking, think
bigger. Let’s imagine where you will see your business in next few years with that app.
Hire an offshore development company
If you have a tight budget, hiring a native app developer sometimes can turn out to be too expensive. In
that case, offshoring your app is a good idea to get it build at affordable prices.

It doesn’t mean that you are compromising with quality to save a few dollars. It’s just about filling your
team with talent people all around the world.
Final wordsBuilding a simple mobile app might be a child’s play, but a seamless one takes complex programming.
It takes time and practice to produce a “be-you” product which attains the quality online presence your
brand deserves, not just a rushed creation from a dull off-the-shelf applications.
Deciding to hire a suitable developer to create a flawless app for your business can be a daunting
decision. I hope that my blogpost helped you to relieve that stress a little bit.
