Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about our services, working process and results.

About the service

The cost depends on the scope, complexity and specific functionality of each project. A straightforward corporate website can start from around €1,500, while a custom web application or mobile app with advanced integrations can exceed €10,000. We always provide a detailed, no-obligation quote after understanding your requirements. We believe in full transparency: the price we agree on is the price you pay — no hidden extras.

Timelines vary depending on the size of the project. A standard corporate website is typically delivered within 3–6 weeks, while more complex platforms or apps can take anywhere from 2 to 6 months. Before we start, you receive a detailed project plan with clear milestones and delivery dates. Meeting deadlines is one of our core commitments to every client.

We use proven, modern technologies: Laravel and PHP on the backend, React and Vue.js for rich user interfaces, and Flutter or React Native for mobile applications. When the project calls for it, we also integrate databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL, cloud services like AWS, and third-party APIs. We always choose the technology that best fits the project requirements — not the one that is easiest for us.

Yes. We offer monthly maintenance plans that cover security updates, regular backups, performance monitoring and technical support for any issues that arise. Once live, every project needs ongoing care to remain stable and secure. You can sign up for maintenance from day one or add it later; our team will always be there when you need us.

Absolutely. All code we write for you is yours from the very first day. When the project is complete, we hand over the full repository, technical documentation and access credentials for all services. At AATSOFT we believe clients should have complete control over their digital investment — we never apply exclusivity clauses or retain ownership of the code.

Yes, we work with clients across Spain and with international companies. Our remote working methodology is well-established: online project management, video call meetings and continuous communication through the tools your team already uses. Being based in Manresa (Barcelona) places no limits on our ability to collaborate with businesses anywhere in the world.
About the process

We follow an agile methodology structured around clear phases: discovery and analysis, UX/UI design, iterative development, quality testing and deployment. Every project starts with a briefing session where we dig deep into your goals and requirements. Throughout the project we hold regular review sessions to make sure the result aligns with your vision. This approach lets us catch and correct issues early, avoiding surprises at the end.

Yes — visibility is a core part of how we work. From the very first sprint you have access to a preview environment where you can review the project in real time. We also hold regular check-in meetings and send weekly status reports. We believe a well-informed client is a satisfied client, and that continuous communication is the best guarantee of a successful project.

We understand that projects evolve and that new ideas emerge during development. Minor changes that fall within the agreed scope are handled at no extra cost within the current sprint. For more substantial changes that require additional work, we prepare a supplementary quote before proceeding — with no obligation to accept. Transparent change management is a cornerstone of how we work with our clients.

Every project has a dedicated account manager who serves as your direct point of contact. We use tools such as Slack, Notion or whatever your team already relies on to keep all information centralised and accessible. Our policy is to respond to any query within 24 hours on working days. We know that clear, prompt communication is what separates a project that flows smoothly from one that gets stuck.

Yes — we are happy to meet in person at our Manresa office or at the client's premises when needed. For longer projects or clients who prefer it, we can plan periodic on-site visits throughout the engagement. That said, our experience shows that well-structured remote collaboration with video calls is equally effective and more flexible for both sides.
About SEO

SEO is a medium to long-term investment: the first noticeable results typically appear between 3 and 6 months of consistent work, though this depends on the competitiveness of your industry and the starting condition of your website. In highly competitive niches, reaching top positions can take 9–12 months. We report progress monthly with clear metrics so you always know exactly where your ranking stands.

Our SEO audit is a thorough analysis of every factor affecting your site's ranking: technical health (page speed, indexability, crawl errors), on-page optimisation (tags, content structure, keyword targeting), domain authority and link profile, and competitor analysis. We deliver a detailed report with prioritised action points and a concrete improvement plan. It is the essential starting point for any serious SEO strategy.

Some basic SEO tasks — such as optimising copy or writing meta descriptions — are within reach for anyone willing to invest time in learning. However, technical SEO — page speed, site architecture, structured data, Core Web Vitals optimisation — requires specialist knowledge and professional-grade tools. Working with experts ensures your strategy is executed correctly from the outset, avoiding mistakes that can penalise your rankings.

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) focuses on improving your website's organic ranking in search engines without paying for clicks — it is an investment that builds sustainable, long-term results. SEM (Search Engine Marketing) covers paid advertising on search engines, primarily Google Ads, where you pay for each visit: results are immediate but stop the moment you stop spending. For most businesses the optimal approach is to combine both: SEM for fast visibility while SEO builds a solid foundation of organic traffic.
