STOA's verdictFor builders
Expo is best for small businesses that need a mobile app on both iPhone and Android without hiring separate developers for each platform.
The free tier is genuinely useful for small teams, and cloud builds save you real setup headaches — but if you need more than one team member on paid features, costs jump fast at $99 per person per month.
For builders · not rated for ownersWhy no rating
Expo needs a developer to set up and use, so we don't give it an owner rating. Here is how each factor looks for a small team that has a developer.
- SMB Fit
The Free plan covers a solo project with 15 Android and 15 iOS builds a month, and the Production plan a small team with a developer can grow into costs $199 a month with unlimited team members.expo.dev (source, opens in a new tab)
