Most mobile apps live on their own. Yours shouldn’t.
TechEsperto builds mobile apps that connect directly to your SuiteCRM β sales rep apps, customer portals, field service apps, and customer-facing apps that read and write to your CRM in real time. iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native β built by a team that already knows the CRM that’s going to power it.
Typical projects range from $15,000 to $80,000 with delivery timelines of 6β16 weeks, depending on platform choice and feature scope.
Most agencies build mobile apps in isolation, then hand them off to a CRM team to “integrate later.” That hand-off is where projects fail.
Field reps end up with an app that doesn’t sync. Sales managers see numbers on the dashboard that don’t match what’s in their CRM. Customer apps display stale data because the API layer was an afterthought. Six months in, the company is paying for two systems that fight each other.
The fix is to design the mobile app and the CRM integration as one project, not two. That’s what we do β and it’s why our mobile apps deploy in weeks, not months, and stay in sync from day one.
Field sales teams need their CRM in their pocket. Not a stripped-down web view β a real native app with offline mode, push notifications, voice-to-text notes, and one-tap actions for the work reps actually do.
What you get:
If your customers are on their phone all day, your service should be too. We build customer apps that pull live data from your SuiteCRM β order history, support tickets, account status, documents, payments β and let customers self-serve without calling your support team.
What you get:
For technicians, drivers, installers, and field teams. Job dispatching, route planning, photo capture, signature collection, parts inventory β all synced to SuiteCRM cases and work orders in real time.
What you get:
For executives and team leads who need to track pipeline, approve quotes, and respond to escalations on the go.

We build on whatever platform makes sense for your project. The right choice depends on budget, performance needs, and which devices your users actually carry.
Best when iOS is your primary user base, you need maximum performance, or you’re using device-specific features (camera APIs, ARKit, advanced biometrics, Apple Pay).
Cost range: $25,000 to $80,000+ Timeline: 8β16 weeks
Best when Android is your primary user base, you need deep hardware integration, or you’re targeting specific Android device categories (rugged tablets, scanners, automotive).
Cost range: $25,000 to $80,000+ Timeline: 8β16 weeks
Best when you want one codebase for iOS and Android, you need a polished UI, and you want lower long-term maintenance cost. Our most popular choice for CRM-connected apps.
Cost range: $20,000 to $60,000 Timeline: 6β12 weeks
Best when you have an existing React or web codebase you want to share, when your team has JavaScript expertise, or when you need a familiar tech stack for in-house maintenance.
Cost range: $20,000 to $60,000 Timeline: 6β12 weeks
Best when you don’t need app store distribution, your users are mostly on Android, or you want a faster, cheaper alternative to a native app for internal tools.
Cost range: $10,000 to $30,000 Timeline: 4β8 weeks
Real cost ranges based on completed projects:
What drives cost up: number of platforms, depth of CRM integration, offline functionality, custom backend services, third-party API integrations (payments, mapping, video), animation and polish, accessibility certification.
What keeps cost down: starting with one platform, using cross-platform frameworks, leveraging existing SuiteCRM REST APIs, phased rollout (MVP first, expand later).
| Project Type | Typical Cost | Timeline |
| Single-platform internal tool (PWA or basic native) | $10,000 β $20,000 | 4β8 weeks |
| Cross-platform sales rep app (Flutter or React Native) | $20,000 β $40,000 | 6β10 weeks |
| Customer-facing app with self-service portal | $30,000 β $60,000 | 8β14 weeks |
| Native iOS or Android with advanced features | $40,000 β $80,000 | 10β16 weeks |
| Multi-platform with offline sync, complex integrations | $60,000 β $120,000+ | 14β24 weeks |
You have a sales team in the field. If your reps are visiting customers, working trade shows, or covering territory, a desktop CRM doesn’t reach them. A connected mobile app captures activity in the moment instead of at the end of the week.
Your customers expect a mobile experience. B2C customers and increasingly B2B buyers expect a mobile app for any service relationship that lasts more than a few months. If you don’t have one, your competitors do.
You’re running field service or operations. Technicians, installers, drivers, inspectors β anyone whose job happens away from a desk needs a mobile-first tool. Pen-and-paper or generic apps cost you accuracy and speed.
You have approval bottlenecks. If quotes, discounts, or expenses are stuck waiting for a manager to be at their desk, mobile approvals unblock revenue.
You want to differentiate your service. A custom mobile app β even a simple one β is something most competitors don’t have. It signals investment and seriousness to customers and prospects.
Before writing a line of code, we map the actual workflow your app needs to support. Who uses it, when, in what context, with what connection. Most failed mobile apps fail because this phase was skipped.
You receive a written scope document, technical architecture plan, and fixed-price quote.
We design the screens in Figma and prototype the key user flows before development starts. You see and click through the app before it exists. Changes here cost hours; changes during development cost days.
You receive Figma designs, a clickable prototype, and final UX sign-off.
Most mobile apps live or die at the API layer. We build the SuiteCRM REST API extensions, authentication layer, and sync logic before building the front-end. This is the boring part β and the part most agencies do badly.
You receive working APIs, documentation, and a working sync demo.
Sprint-based development with working demos every two weeks. You see real progress, not status reports. Bugs and changes are tracked in a shared system you can see at any time.
You receive a working app you can install on your test devices throughout development.
QA across devices and OS versions, beta testing with your real users, App Store and Play Store submission, and launch coordination. Apple and Google can both reject submissions for surprising reasons β we’ve seen most of them.
You receive a published app, a tested update process, and 30 days of post-launch support.

We know your CRM. Most mobile app agencies treat the CRM as a black box and hand off integration to “your IT team.” We build the mobile app and the CRM extensions as one team, on one timeline.
We’ve built mobile apps before. Across 150+ projects, mobile apps for field sales, customer portals, technician dispatch, and executive dashboards. Pattern recognition matters when the project gets hard.
We don’t lock you in. You own the source code. You own the App Store and Play Store accounts. You own the AWS or Azure infrastructure. We can hand off maintenance to your team or maintain it for you under a managed services agreement.
Three offices, three time zones. Chicago, Cheyenne, and Noida β covering the US, Europe, and Asia. Mobile apps need quick turnaround on bug fixes, and someone on our team is always working.
