Larger platforms are delivered in phases so you get value early. We give you a realistic timeline after a discovery call. - **How much does a custom web application cost?** It depends on scope, integrations and complexity. After discovery we send a fixed-scope proposal so you know the investment upfront, with no open-ended billing surprises. - **What is the difference between a portal and a website?** A website is public and built to attract visitors. A portal sits behind a secure login and is built to serve them: each user sees their own data, documents and tools. - **Can the portal integrate with our existing CRM or ERP?** Yes. Integrations are core to every portal we build. We connect to platforms like Salesforce, HubSpot, Dynamics 365 and QuickBooks, or to custom systems through APIs or direct database access. - **How long does a new website take?** A typical marketing site takes 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on the number of pages, content readiness and integrations. - **Will I be able to update the website myself?** Yes. We set up an intuitive CMS and train your team, so you can edit text, images, pages and blog posts without touching code. - **Should we build custom authentication or use a provider like Auth0?** Usually both. We rely on proven identity providers for the security-critical core and build a fully custom, branded experience on top, so you get enterprise-grade security without the generic look. - **What are passkeys and why do they matter?** Passkeys replace passwords with device-based cryptographic credentials such as Face ID, fingerprint or Windows Hello. They are phishing-resistant, faster for users and eliminate password resets. - **Is our data safe when using AI?** Yes. We deploy models through enterprise services like Azure OpenAI and Amazon Bedrock inside your own cloud tenant, with data residency in the region you choose. Your data is never used to train public models. - **What is RAG and do we need it?** Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) lets an AI answer questions using your own documents and databases, with citations. It is the most practical way to make AI accurate about your business. - **How much should we spend on Meta Ads?** It depends on your goals, margins and market. We recommend a test budget that generates enough data to learn quickly, then scale what works. - **How quickly will we see results?** Initial data arrives within days, but campaigns typically need 4 to 8 weeks of testing and optimization to reach stable, scalable performance. - **What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?** GEO, also called AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), is the practice of optimizing your content and brand presence so AI systems like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews mention and cite you in their answers. - **Is SEO still worth it with AI search?** More than ever. AI systems lean heavily on well-structured, authoritative web content, often the same pages that rank well in traditional search. Strong SEO is the foundation GEO is built on. ## Company - [Home](https://experiencely.ca/) - [All services](https://experiencely.ca/services) - [Customer stories](https://experiencely.ca/customer-stories) - [Contact](https://experiencely.ca/contact): info@experiencely.ca, replies within one business day
