If you want to make a relatively clear budget, you should not only list the business requirements of the project, but also formulate the quality requirements of the project. For example, the development costs of WebAPP, hybrid APP and native APP vary greatly, whether there are requirements for network and data security, the number of users and data to be carried, the choice of platform architecture, whether it is convenient to expand, whether it can be modularized and reconstructed, and whether it is easy to maintain.

I can still give you some data here for your reference.

Whether the online education APP involves audio, video on demand and live broadcast (mostly) is more expensive. Previously, it cost more than 7 million to build a streaming media data center for a company. If you don't build it yourself, you can rent it. For example, Alibaba Cloud, AWS, Qiniu and Tencent Cloud all have streaming media services, and Youku also provides streaming media services. Although renting a cloud service saves the cost of building a data center, it is ok if there are many users.

If your video is free to watch, you can upload it with Tencent Video or Youku, and then link it to your own platform, so you don't have to deduct your own traffic or occupy bandwidth. The disadvantage is that there are advertisements when watching videos.

In the software part of online education, it is suggested that it is cheaper to buy existing products. For example, the sales prices of products such as eduplayer and edusoho are all below 50,000, and the development cost is definitely much higher than that of purchasing existing products. But the disadvantage is what functions the existing products have, what functions they can only accept, and they cannot be customized according to their own wishes. By the way, if you just want to verify the model and idea at first, you can buy the copyright. You can spend two or three thousand yuan to build a cloud host, download the edusoho source code and install it yourself, and you can use it. If you want to operate profitably through software, it is not too late to buy copyright now. Of course, there are some shortcomings. Edusoho is a single-server architecture, and the code quality and data table structure are not very good, so it cannot be expanded in parallel. No matter how big the project is, it must be rebuilt.

If you launch a native APP application with up-to-standard quality according to operating standards, you can recruit your own team.

Team configuration should at least

IOS 1 person 20k/ month

Android 1 20k/ month

Server java/PHP25k/ month

UI 15k/ month

PC-side web management background. 15k/ month

The first version was launched in 3 months, plus social security and provident fund. After the launch, the team continued to iterate.

The cost of the first edition of the conservative budget is 500,000.

If you find an outsourcing company to package a webAPP through a web page and change the existing online education platform with a web page version, you also need10-150,000.

I hope the above can help you.
