Building A Custom Web App? Here's How User Stories Affect Your Budget

As a web development agency, we understand that one of the biggest concerns for businesses looking to create a custom web app is the cost. At Apps Media Ltd, we use a user story approach to determine the scope and price of a web app development project.

A user story is a brief, informal description of a feature or function that a user wants or needs from a web app. By breaking down the development process into user stories, we can create a clear picture of the functionality and features that are required for the app.

Based on the number of user stories and the duration of the project, we can determine the size and complexity of the app, which in turn affects the price. Here’s how we typically break down web app development projects based on user stories:

Small project

Duration: up to 3 months

User stories: 3 or less user stories

For a small project with only a few user stories, we would typically recommend a basic web app with limited functionality. This would include a simple user interface, basic security features, and integration with existing systems if required. The duration of the project would be up to 3 months, and the price would be relatively affordable.

Medium project

Duration: 3 to 6 months

User stories: 3 to 7 user stories

For a medium-sized project with several user stories, we would recommend a more complex web app with advanced functionality. This would include custom design, responsive features, enhanced security, and integration with external systems if required. The duration of the project would be between 3 to 6 months, and the price would be higher than a small project.

Large project

Duration: more than 6 months

User stories: more than 7 user stories

For a large project with numerous user stories, we would recommend an enterprise-level web app with complex architecture, advanced security features, and integration with multiple external systems. The duration of the project would be more than 6 months, and the price would be higher than a medium project.
