Mobile App Development Needs to Advance in 2014



Quote:








Mobile devices will continue to invade the corporate workspace in 2014, with "bring your own device" expected to open the door to multiple new opportunities to boost worker productivity.



Utilizing mobile applications is a major priority among businesses trying to keep up with employees and customers using smartphones, tablets, and other mobile products. The Apple iPhone and iPad and Google Android-powered devices lead the pack, but Microsoft and BlackBerry also are still on the outside looking in.



App designers have four key segments to approach when it comes to preparing mobile enterprise apps: native apps, hybrid apps, mobile middleware, or using a web-based approach. Forrester Research stated in "Building Mobile Apps? Start With Web; Move to Hybrid":



Start a web approach; move to a hybrid approach as needed – You don't face a life-or-death decision when it comes to selecting the best approach to building mobile applications – we see companies that employ all four approaches successfully. The importance of your users' experience and how much you can invest in app dev – in labor and capital – will largely drive your decision.



Full story over at The Mobility Hub.



Enterprise apps are here to stay - but it's up to app developers, companies, and users to work together to get things done.
