Will you build me a new feature?

← About Horizon
Our development team and system engineers work daily to improve the system and release new features, functionality, and improved performance on the system. Although we are improving the system daily (see: http://horizonwebref.com/changelog), we only have so many hands and have a finite limit to how many we can produce so we must prioritize our developments accordingly. If you'd like to see a new feature or new functionality on the system that is outside of our current designs or intended operations, we offer 2 options for submitting your request to our development team:

New Feature Requests

New feature requests can be submitted to our development team at http://horizonwebref.com/new-features or by using the black "new feature requests" tab on the left side of every page on the desktop/laptop version of the system. New Feature Requests are free to submit and are directly received by our development team. With that being said, there are limitations to this:
  • Every request is received and read by our development team.
  • Our development team will prioritize these requests at their discretion.
  • We do not provide detailed status updates. They are either completed, not completed or rejected. You'll receive a notification if completed or rejected.
  • Some features are completed in a few days, some take years.
  • It may seem like the request is not being heard, but rest assured we read and re-read every request daily.

Accelerated Development

If you must have a certain feature built, we do offer accelerated development services if our current schedule and workload can accommodate you. Accelerated development allows you to jump to the front of the line to have your desired functionality built into the system ahead of most of our other prioritized work. Accelerated development work is provided at a fee of $200.00 USD per hour. You will receive a detailed scope of work and timeline estimate for the completion of your desired functionality as well as detailed status updates as your functionality is being built. 50% of the estimated fee is required up front as a deposit for your development. The remaining time & materials balance is required upon completion and prior to delivery of the features. Ownership and copyright of all development work are retained by Horizon Dynamic Web Designs, LLC. and are non-transferrable. Accelerated development may be rejected for features that our development team does not wish to incorporate or feels that is not suitable for our systems.  Minimum development fees also apply.

Accelerated Development Discount

A 50% discount is frequently offered at the discretion of our development team for features that are popular and benefit our entire community. If your request is something we feel everyone will benefit from, we may offer a discounted hourly rate of $100.00 USD per hour for accelerated development at our discretion.  Minimum development fees also apply.

Accelerated Development Timeline

The average accelerated development project is completed within approximately 12 weeks, depending on the scope of work required. The minimum time frame is 8 weeks for completion. Longer timelines may be required for larger projects.

Custom Development

Custom-developed features may be available for development on an hourly billable fee of $200.00 USD per hour.  This would be for features or development that would be specific to just you or a very limited number of users that doesn't benefit our entire community.  The availability of this work would be at the discretion of our engineering team depending on the requested functionality, current workload & how/if the functionality fits with our overall system design intentions.  Custom development can take anywhere from a few weeks to many months to be completed, depending on the scope of work.  You can contact us to inquire about the costs and feasibility of custom development.  Minimum development fees also apply.
