Cost Comparison Platform
to Help Weigh Up Municipalities in Switzerland

main Image

How Onix developed a unique Swiss comparison platform that helps users make informed decisions on the biggest cost positions in Switzerland.

This cost of living estimator in Switzerland is designed to help users make informed decisions on Switzerland's most significant cost positions, including taxes, health insurance, average rents, and electricity prices by comparing them in one place.

[ Business context ]

Due to the decentralization and small size of the country, it is difficult to compare the cost of living amongst different cities before one moves within the country or when immigrating into it.

People would have to check local tax calculators of different cantons, calculate their health insurance premium, and check other factors in many different places on the web for every place they consider moving to. It is already a burden for locals but especially complicated for people who are not familiar with the whole system.

Therefore, our client reached out Onix to create a web app that focuses on these potential users to provide them with detailed cost figures before they move.

We were requested to build a digital platform that offers unbiased and objective information about the Swiss taxation and insurance systems. Whether users are planning to move to Switzerland, living there, or are simply curious, this calculator has it all covered.

The website is committed to providing their users with the most comprehensive and accurate information possible. The client recognizes that navigating through Swiss taxation and insurance policies can be overwhelming, which is why the platform idea appeared.

Our solutions

Developing functionality for a cost comparison calculator required a detailed understanding of the specific types of data that needed to be collected and compared. Onix together with our client have worked closely to determine which factors and data sets are most relevant for their users, such as average rents healthcare costs, and taxes in different municipalities, as well as collecting and integrating this data into the calculator.

After determining the types of data they would incorporate, Onix developers started building the calculator. This involved utilizing web development technologies like HTML, CSS, and PHP Laravel as Back-end server language.

Once the platform was coded, it underwent rigorous testing and iterations to ensure that it was intuitive and user-friendly. Our developers closely monitored the user experience and used feedback to refine and improve the calculator's functionality continually.

Summing up all our work for this project, these are our leading solutions:

Data collection

We added data collection functionality which includes gathering user’s financial and personal details.

The calculator involves such data as tax rates, health insurance rates, electricity prices, and average rent prices in particular places of residence.

Internal calculation mechanisms

We created complex algorithms to calculate the costs associated with the different factors being compared.

This involved developing an intuitive formula to adjust for factors such as inflation, taxes, and other expenses.

background

User interface design

Creating a clean, user-friendly interface is key to making the platform intuitive and easy to use.

We designed user forms with easy readability and with well thought-out drop-downs to capture estimates of underlying input variables.

Cross-referencing and validation

We added cross-referencing with user data to ensure the information provided is accurate while ensuring appropriate input consistency to validate the accuracy of data.

[ Client testimonial ]

Here is our client's statement about their experience with the Onix services

“Onix was the ideal partner to get this project done - this became clear very early in the project tendering process when I quickly got the impression of their know-how, the work ethic and the collaborative culture they live.

Once we started to work, it was clear that they lived up to their promises and exceeded my expectations when they were very familiar with complex, country-specific laws and regulations from an early stage. Onix collaborates extremely well amongst their team members and the internal delivery processes are designed to perform.

After working with many in-house dev teams in major Swiss/Worldwide financial service providers over more than a decade, I can easily say that working with Onix was the biggest pleasure in all those projects. I highly recommend working with them if you want to get things done fast, thoroughly, in high quality and in a collaborative manner.”
