Agency selection
Pagepro Alternatives Compare the Actual Scope
Pagepro, Naturaily, Blazity and PandaCodeGen all say they build Next.js sites, and on paper the lists of services look similar. They take on different kinds of work. You cannot tell what any of them will charge, how good the work is, what support you get, or what the contract says from a category label. Ask all of them to quote the same requirements in writing, with a date on it, and compare those.
Reviewed July 24, 2026. Disclosure: PandaCodeGen wrote this page and is one of the providers discussed, so our commercial interest is explicit.

A defensible shortlist
- ✓Pagepro currently emphasizes Next.js, Expo and Sanity work.
- ✓Naturaily currently lists custom web, headless, Shopify, ecommerce, design and Jamstack services.
- ✓Blazity currently lists AI engineering, performance, modernization, applications and technical consulting.
- ✓PandaCodeGen's primary offer is SEO-conscious migration planning and delivery for revenue-generating sites.
- ✓All that tells you is what each firm says it does. It does not tell you they cost the same, work to the same standard, or get the same results.
Same brief for everyone
Same pages, same content, same design work, same integrations, same testing, same launch, same support.
Ask who does the work
Name the people, say how available they are, who owns what, whether any of it is subcontracted, and how they will talk to you.
Read the terms
How you sign it off, when you pay, who owns the code, what licences you get, what happens if it goes wrong, and how you leave.
What the official sites currently say
| Provider | Current self-described service focus | What a buyer still must verify |
|---|---|---|
| Pagepro | Next.js, Expo, Sanity and related platform work | Exact team, scope, model, price, timeline, evidence and terms |
| Naturaily | Custom web, headless, Shopify, ecommerce, design and Jamstack | Which disciplines are included, exact stack, price and support |
| Blazity | AI, performance, modernization, applications and consulting | Engagement entry point, delivery team, acceptance and handover |
| PandaCodeGen | SEO-conscious migrations and custom web delivery | Accepted scope, capacity, relevant evidence, price and legal terms |
This table was checked against official provider pages on July 24, 2026. It intentionally does not repeat third-party profile prices, review counts, ratings, minimums or partner badges as current facts. Those values can change and do not make unlike scopes comparable. Our own side of the table is documented in our project work and on our team page, so you can hold it to the same standard.
If you need to compare minimums, retainers, review totals, support terms or delivery quality across providers, take each claim from the provider's own page, record the date you took it and keep the record. Provider terms change often, so an undated claim ages badly and cannot be defended when someone questions the shortlist later.
Start with the engagement you actually need
- ✓A fixed-scope migration with an existing content inventory and design.
- ✓A discovery or blueprint for uncertain architecture and integration requirements.
- ✓A new product or application with evolving requirements.
- ✓Staff augmentation or a dedicated team working inside the client's process.
- ✓Performance diagnosis and implementation on the current stack.
- ✓Ongoing support, experimentation or managed operations after launch.
A provider can be excellent at one model and unsuitable for another. Ask each agency to state whether it is quoting discovery, a fixed deliverable, time and materials, a retainer or staff capacity. Do not compare the monthly price of a team with the project price of a bounded migration. If you are still building the shortlist, our roundups of Next.js agencies and custom web development agencies in the USA widen the field, and our guide to choosing a web development agency covers the selection process itself.
Use one request for proposal
- ✓Business objective, users, countries, accessibility and compliance requirements.
- ✓URL, template and content inventory plus design-system and copy responsibilities.
- ✓CMS, commerce, CRM, forms, search, identity, analytics, consent and other integrations.
- ✓Data migration, redirects, metadata, structured data, launch monitoring and rollback.
- ✓Representative performance acceptance, browsers, devices and test evidence.
- ✓Milestones, review windows, dependencies, change control, support and response process.
- ✓Repository, account, deliverable, reusable-tool and third-party-license ownership.
Writing that document is easier when you already know how the work is normally broken down. Our website migration cost guide and rebuild scoping guide list the line items most requests for proposal forget, and who actually owns your website explains why the ownership clause matters more than it looks.
How to evaluate evidence
Ask for projects comparable in platform, route types, integrations, risk and team structure. Record whether a metric comes from field data, a lab test, analytics, a vendor dashboard or a testimonial. Require dates, tested URLs, conditions and definitions. A case study can show that a provider completed one engagement; it does not guarantee your outcome.
Third-party reviews can provide useful questions about communication and delivery, but verify the profile owner, review date, project size, service and sample limitations. Do not turn a rating into a technical-quality score or assume the current proposal matches an old review. Our own comparable work is published as case studies, including Panda Patches and MyCustomPatches, so you can apply the same tests to us.
PandaCodeGen pricing and terms
PandaCodeGen publishes planning tiers at $1,500, $3,500 and $5,000 to $10,000. The recommended path is a free fit audit, then an accepted paid blueprint or migration sprint where appropriate. Extra pages or features are estimated through change control. Published tiers are not evidence that another provider is overpriced or that the scopes are equivalent. The current figures and what each tier includes are on the pricing page, and the delivery routes behind them are documented per platform: WordPress migration, Webflow, GoHighLevel and custom engineering.
- ✓30% onboarding payment and 70% at delivery under the accepted agreement.
- ✓15 business days of support for Starter and 30 for Growth or Scale, with scope defined in the terms.
- ✓A 90-plus Lighthouse target only when representative pages, mobile and desktop profiles, three passing runs and remedy are written into the accepted terms.
- ✓The client controls its domain, hosting, repository and business accounts under the agreed account model.
- ✓Project deliverables, pre-existing tools and third-party licenses follow the signed ownership and licensing terms.
Questions to ask every finalist
- ✓Who will do the work, and what happens if that person becomes unavailable?
- ✓Which deliverables, exclusions, assumptions and client dependencies are in the price?
- ✓What evidence proves acceptance, and what cure or remedy applies if a term is missed?
- ✓What is the change process and rate basis for work outside scope?
- ✓Who controls accounts, source, data, documentation and deployment at each milestone?
- ✓What support is included, when does it start and what counts as a defect?
- ✓Which vendor charges, licenses and operational responsibilities continue after launch?
The answers to those questions are usually where a low headline number stops being a bargain. What a cheap web developer actually involves goes through the gaps that tend to sit behind the cheapest proposal in a shortlist.
