MVP ScalingAs part of our MVP development services, we help clients scale their products and add new features. Whether you created your MVP with Expanice or another vendor, we are ready to improve its functionality and infrastructure or migrate it to a more effective technology stack.

ExpertiseHow We Deliver MVP Development ServicesA successful delivery of minimum viable product development services necessitates not only technical excellence but also a thorough understanding of the problems our customers hope to solve with their MVPs—and Expanice possesses both. Here's our approach to MVP development:

DiscoveryOur MVP development services company will work closely with your internal and external stakeholders to better understand your vision, conduct problem-solution fit and cost-benefit analyses, identify and prioritize product features, and choose development tools.

DesignOur bespoke MVP development services continue with UI/UX and architecture design. During this stage, we carefully plan how your product will function behind the scenes under various workloads, identify integration and security requirements, create wireframes, and remove technological roadblocks.

PrototypingExpanice's MVP developers will create interactive, clickable prototypes to test how your target audience will use the product and improve its navigation logic. By gathering user feedback early on, we lower the risk of costly rework later in the development process and position your product for success.

DevelopmentDepending on your budget and product requirements, we create MVP solutions using either low-code or traditional development tools, such as PHP frameworks, Go modules, JavaScript frameworks, cloud services, and native and cross-platform mobile development technologies.

TestingEvery product created by our MVP development company undergoes rigorous testing to validate that it lives up to your and your target users’ expectations. We validate that your MVP solution is easy to use, scales on demand, and can be easily enhanced with new features.

LaunchAfter guiding you through each stage of MVP development, our company will support you as your product goes live, gains traction, and expands its user base. We will gladly assist you in implementing additional features and transforming the MVP into a fully functional product.

QuestionsFrequently asked questionsWe generally follow these steps

1How do MVPs differ from prototypes and full-fledged technology products?

Prototypes are early-stage, often non-functional models of your product that help you visualize the concept, design, and user flow. Prototypes are not intended to be released to the market, but rather to gather feedback during the design phase. A minimum viable product is a functional version of your product that includes only the essential features needed to solve a specific problem for your target audience. The goal of MVP software development services is to validate the product idea with real users while minimizing time and development costs. In essence, MVP solutions function as a bridge between a prototype and a full-fledged product, allowing you to test and iterate on your idea with minimal investment. Full-fledged technology products are market-ready solutions that include all necessary features, scalability, and integrations. These products are intended to meet all user needs and usually follow the MVP development phase after the concept has been validated and refined.

2What are some common challenges in MVP development projects?

Tapping into MVP software development services prior to building a full-fledged solution can be a highly effective strategy, but it does come with its own set of challenges. One of the most critical issues is scope creep, which occurs when too many new features and requirements are added during the development process. This can result in delays, increased costs, and a product that no longer meets the initial MVP objectives. To avoid scope creep, clearly define and prioritize features from the very beginning and stick to the plan. Another challenge is striking the appropriate balance between simplicity and functionality. The MVP must be simple enough to develop quickly and affordably, but also functional enough to provide value to users and elicit meaningful feedback. Ensuring that the right resources (e.g., development talent, tools, and time) are allocated correctly can also be difficult, particularly for smaller teams or startups with limited budget. Finally, effectively gathering and interpreting user feedback is critical for improving the MVP. However, distinguishing between useful feedback and outlier opinions that may not reflect the majority of users can be difficult. As a dependable MVP development company, Expanice can help you overcome these and other challenges successfully. So, drop us a line to discuss your project and the goals you aspire to achieve!

3How much does it cost to build an MVP?

The cost of developing an MVP varies greatly depending on the project's complexity, the technology stack used, and the geographical location of the MVP development company you have partnered with. MVP development costs can range from $10,000 to $100,000, or even higher if you are working on a cutting-edge solution that no one has attempted before. For a better idea, see our recent article on the cost of IoT solutions. Overall, MVPs with a limited set of features and built with low-code tools cost up to 30% less than complex MVP solutions that require custom development. Speaking of the latter, use our software development cost calculator to get a ballpark estimate for your technology idea.

4How long does it take to build an MVP?

The timeline for building an MVP typically ranges from 2 to 6 months, depending on the scope of the project, the complexity of the features, and the availability of resources. Simple MVPs might be completed in as little as 4 to 8 weeks, especially if low-code development tools are used. More complex MVP solutions, which require custom development and extensive testing, could take 4 to 6 months or longer. Timelines can also be influenced by factors such as the need for user testing, iterative feedback loops, and the availability of key stakeholders for decision-making. Our MVP development company will provide you with a detailed time and cost estimate before getting down to actual software engineering.

5When should a startup consider moving from an MVP to a full-fledged product?

Our startup MVP development services produce sleek, high-functioning minimum viable products with strong market appeal. The question is, when is the right time to expand an MVP’s feature set and explore new business opportunities? If user feedback is consistently positive, the MVP is gaining traction in the market, there is evidence that scaling the MVP could significantly grow your business, and you have the resources to take your product to the next level—just go for it!
