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 hours of setup headaches — but if you need more than one team member on paid features, costs jump fast at $99 per person per month.
