01Intro
N° VS · Vienna

A Vienna agency vs DevNova. Austrian quality at a fraction of the price.

An Austrian agency delivers quality and bills Austrian rates. The question is simple: are you paying for the result, or for the Vienna address?
02Limits

  • 01

    Price: per the DevNova Index, the average Austrian agency rate is €120/hr and an e-shop averages €18,800. A landing page is often €599-10,000.

  • 02

    Pace: a retainer model and multi-round sign-offs stretch even a simple site into weeks or months.

  • 03

    Ownership: some agencies keep the code and hosting on their side. Leaving means migrating and paying again.

03The fix

  1. 01

    Fixed price, no surprises

    Landing €349, Marketing €799, E-shop €1,399 one-time, or from €700 on the CO-PILOT plan (50% on signing, then only care). You know the number up front; the comparison draws on the public DevNova Index.

  2. 02

    Delivered in 11 days

    A fixed product process with a clear scope, not an open-ended retainer billed by the hour. You know when the site goes live.

  3. 03

    You own the code

    Git repo, domain and hosting handed over on launch day. No vendor lock-in, and maintenance isn't tied to us.

  4. 04

    EU-compliant, remote

    We work in your language, data stays in the EU (Vercel Frankfurt). Cancel the care plan any time.

04Open pricing

Three ways to start — pick the one your cash flow likes.

For this niche we typically pick the E-shop tier (basePrice €1 399). You then choose a payment plan plus an optional care plan.
  • ONE-TIME

    One-time buyout from €1 399.

    Single payment at launch. On launch day you receive the Git repo, the domain, and full documentation. No recurring commitment.

  • CO-PILOT

    CO-PILOT with 50% off.

    Half on signing (50%), then a care plan from €19/mo on annual billing. Care covers hosting, the domain and monthly content updates.

  • IGNITION

    €0 to start. €117/mo for 12 months.

    Zero-upfront code lease. You only pay once the site is live. After month 12 the code transfers to you automatically. Built for businesses without launch capital.

05Fair view

A Vienna agency is the right choice in these cases.

  • 01

    You need in-person workshops in Austria. On large brand projects that require face-to-face sessions and a German-led workshop on site, local presence has real value.

  • 02

    Enterprise procurement tied to a local vendor. Some corporates and the public sector require a supplier with Austrian invoicing and contracts. There a local agency is more practical.

  • 03

    Complex legal localisation in person. If you need ongoing advice on Austrian Impressum, data protection and sector rules face to face, a local partner covers it.

07FAQ

  • Lower operating costs in Slovakia, a remote team with no expensive Vienna office, and a fixed product process (11 days). The code and design quality stay the same: you pay for the result, not the address. The real market rates are in the DevNova Index.
