Q: How much do you charge?
A: It varies. What do you want to achieve in the first place?

Q: Don’t you consult me on the cost?
A: We can consult you when you are clear with what you want.

A: True and not.
Each software has its pros and cons. Excel still can be excellent depends on what you are using it for. Database development is not like buying a hamburger or a bar of chocolate. It’s service orientation. A good system always take longer hours and communication for perfection. No budget doesn’t mean we can’t build any system for you. With budget, both parties know what need to be completed within a framework.

A: We need to have a clear picture what we can provide to our clients. If the things to develop is too vague, we can’t estimate any quote.

Q: You did for other clients before. Why can’t you tell me the range you charge, or your hourly rate?
A: What is important is what you want to do with your database. If we can’t have a clear image from there, it’s very irresponsible to quote any charge.
