Compare three buying models
Generic website builder
Lower platform cost.
Higher internal burden for:
- technical product content;
- project proof;
- forms;
- SEO migration.
OneStudio public front office
Useful when the supplier wants:
Use current OneStudio pricing.
- owned website;
- enquiries;
- ordinary CRM;
- consultation booking where appropriate;
- reminders;
- media;
- analytics.
OneStudio + project/manufacturing systems
Often the cleanest architecture.
OneStudio owns:
search/referral → product/project proof → RFQ → ordinary client relationship
Specialist systems own:
accepted project → design/submittals → fabrication/delivery → installation/closeout

Questions businesses ask
How much should a laboratory furniture website cost?
There is no useful universal number without scope. A brochure site, a technical product/RFQ site and an integrated project portal are different products.
Should CAD or submittal management be included in website cost?
Treat design/document-control tools as separate operational categories unless a vendor explicitly includes them.
Does OneStudio replace lab furniture manufacturing software?
No. OneStudio should remain the public website, enquiry and ordinary CRM layer.
What does OneStudio’s turnkey website service cost?
The current [[turnkey website service|/website]] starts from €249 per project, with the final project price fixed before work begins based on scope.
