How the cost estimator builds your number

The estimator computes a total project cost range from your project type, complexity level, and selected integrations. Each project type carries a base range at basic complexity, from $12,000 to $40,000 for a mobile app up to $25,000 to $80,000 for custom enterprise software. Complexity multiplies that range by 1.0 to 2.5, each selected integration adds a flat $4,000, and the complexity level also sets the timeline and team estimates.

A worked example: an advanced warehouse management system with 2 integrations

  1. Inputs: Warehouse Management System, Advanced complexity (complex workflows plus integrations), 2 integrations selected: ERP (SAP/Oracle) and IoT Devices.
  2. Start from the WMS base range at basic complexity: $20,000 to $60,000.
  3. Apply the Advanced multiplier of 1.8: $20,000 x 1.8 = $36,000 and $60,000 x 1.8 = $108,000.
  4. Add $4,000 per integration, 2 x $4,000 = $8,000 on both ends: $44,000 to $116,000.
  5. Advanced complexity also sets the delivery estimates: 6-9 months, 5-6 developers plus 1 project manager, agile with 2-week sprints.

The tool returns an estimated investment of $44,000 to $116,000, a 6-9 month timeline, and a team of 5-6 developers plus 1 project manager.

Base cost ranges by project type (at basic complexity)

Project typeBase minimumBase maximum
Warehouse Management System$20,000$60,000
HRMS / Payroll System$15,000$50,000
SaaS Application$18,000$55,000
Mobile App$12,000$40,000
E-commerce Platform$15,000$50,000
Custom Enterprise Software$25,000$80,000

Bases are the basic-complexity cost for each type, aligned to the published build cost ladder. The published single-site WMS band ($30,000 to $64,000, ERP included) lands between this tool’s Basic and Standard complexity for a WMS with one ERP integration.

Integration pricing

Add-onCost
Each selected integration (ERP, CRM, payment gateways, accounting, third-party APIs, legacy systems, IoT devices, email/SMS)+$4,000 flat

$4,000 is roughly 160-200 hours at the published $20-$30/hour band, a realistic single-integration effort.

These are the same bases and multipliers the estimator above runs on (CostEstimator.tsx).

Rorix Technologies has made our admin panel usable and client-facing, where it wasn’t friendly before. We can communicate back and forth with them as if they were employees. The team really cares about our company and the direction we’re going.
