I work with operations at a VC firm and we started developing an in-house solution to manage our funds and investments.<p>I am no professional developer, I am a finance guy, and right now I am stuck. I can't manage my amateur codebase anymore nor develop it further.<p>It is written in Rails, so my question is, how much does it cost to have 2-3 developers finish it in 2-3 months?
I have this bathroom project and I need 2-3 plumbers to finish it. How much does that cost?<p>Funny comment aside, you need to write specifications, talk to Ruby-on-Rails engineers (or an agency) in person to get a proper quote. Don't be surprised if an agency already charges for the first meeting. Alternatively post it on odesk or freelancer.com.
Pay someone to review it. It's by far the best solutions and only real way to get an accurate estimate. I have seen project quoted off the cuff finish at 5 times the original price.<p>Pay someone.
