Enterprise Mobile Apps Development – Going Beyond The Mobile First Approach

Whether at work or at home, mobiles have completely transformed the way we live. We rely on smart phones to do almost everything instantly. At work too smart phones are looked upon as devices that can dramatically improve the efficiency of their employees and processes. Mobile apps development has given way to smarter and more efficient ways of working. Enterprises are steadily realizing that developing a mobile application is not just about covering all devices and users, it’s a more strategic approach to plan and transform enterprises and the way they work.

Mobile Apps Development

Mobile growth is exponential

Six out of seven people who own a phone, own a smartphone. Smart phones are becoming the primary point of access to the web. If we take a look at SnapChat or Uber or Facebook, more than 400 million of their users log in only with their mobile devices. The desktop usage of these websites has drastically reduced. In other words, mobile is the primary way that interactions happen these days.

User Convenience

Studies show that one in four mobile apps that are downloaded are never used again. This means that a high percentage of apps fall short of user expectations. The most important among user expectations from a mobile app is its convenience. If the app does not deploy quickly or is too difficult to use, the users will simply discard it!

Use Experience

User experience goes beyond mere looks. Users expect mobile apps to be intuitive, available and provide the right content. User experience can be spoilt by a simple inconvenience caused by a pop up or an irrelevant button or inconvenience in browsing through the various screens. If your enterprise all connects to the backend systems, you must ensure that the connection has a good speed and is highly secure.

Integration with backend

In case of an ecommerce app, if a user adds a few items to the shopping cart from the website, the mobile app should also reflect the same data. Strong backend integration is essential for this purpose.

Continuous delivery

Mobile apps development is never ‘finished’. Developers need to keep track of the latest and greatest in mobile technology and update and upgrade your mobile app accordingly. New releases and updates to a mobile app is a continuous process.

Mobility and other tech trends

It is a known fact that there is a convergence of mobility, cloud, the Internet of Things and big data happening across all the industries.

Mobile phones have added to the convenience of our lifestyles. Your mobile phone is your phone, computer, camera, entertainment center, map, personal trainer, assistant, shopping guide, and lots more! It is no longer a luxury in life, it has become a necessity. Whether its work or home, mobile apps give you the freedom to access the internet and get things done from anywhere and anytime!

It’s no longer nice to have a mobile app for your business, it’s a must have part of our lives!
