New Internet Products Help Companies Save Money

May 11, 2009 - PRLog -- ApogeeInvent unveils a new web development and software product line, turning traditional services into an affordable product for companies. These products includes software programming, professional design, and copywriting services. www.apogeeinvent.com

Web development and custom software can be expensive for small or even medium-size businesses to invest in. A website can range anywhere from $2,500 to $10,000; add in ecommerce capabilities or content management systems, and you are looking at $20,000-$30,000 estimates. And these prices are only estimates—companies typically charge a base fee and then add hourly the time spent on the project, ranging from $10-$110+ per hour. So what is the solution for a company on a tight budget?

ApogeeInvent, a technology and web development company, has streamlined their technology platforms into a set of web development / custom software engineering products. By building each product on their extensive code base, they offer a “skeletal” form of the product. Any additional design work or development work necessary to customize the product is done under credit hours calculated for each platform. This ensures greater transparency of work done. It also gives the client a price up front. Each client knows exactly what they are getting and for exactly what price. ApogeeInvent has even posted PDFs of the contracts on their website for clients to view. (see the products and their contracts at www.apogeeinvent.com/products.php)

How does this save money? Clients don’t need to worry about the hours adding up, or the extra changes they decide to make costing additional hours. It also makes the process much quicker, so companies can have their marketing website, affiliate technology, or ecommerce system up and running in a very short time. Sometimes, getting a website up before the competition, or their ecommerce system running before the holidays, can make or break online sales (and companies).

While the products may not be ready to sell at retail stores, since any advanced technology still requires development work and designers, it is one innovation that saves both time and money.

“Turning what is generally a service in our industry into a product has been a challenge,” says ApogeeInvent CEO Beto Paredes. “But I feel that our clients will love the versatility and quick turn around the product line allows us. It will also make our costs lower and our work very transparent. We will still be offering the same custom work people have come to expect, but we now have these great products, as well.”

A full list of the company’s new product line, as well as the services they still offer, are available on their website, www.apogeeinvent.com.
