MOBILE APP
USERS ARE
Mobiles greatest value is making data available on the go. Mobile apps can give shoppers the ability to see information on past purchases, support tickets, or upcoming deliveries. Anywhere, on any device. They let businesses deliver offers based on a customers location. Or build products that signal maintenance needs in real time. And, mobile apps let employees access data and workflow process anywhere, anytime. So they can get more done in less time. Its a paradigm shift for IT departments. They have a new focus. Bringing customer data safely and easily to handheld devices.
Before you decide which concepts to push from your whiteboard into your customers hands, consider these aspects of your app: Purpose: Is the app for collaboration, communication, transactions, or entertainment? Users: Is it for customers, partners, or employees? Social: How can social media enhance the experience? Device: What native phone features can enhance the experience? Should the app be native, hybrid, or HTML5?
76% of businesses say mobile devices increased employee responsiveness and decision-making speed.

Gartner Predictions 2012
Developers never have to install servers, data centers, databases, or software stacks. Instead, they move straight to the business logic and user experiences that differentiate brands and innovate for customers. Cloud platforms include these services out of the box:
Infrastructure: Hardware, software stack, and storage Application: Web services, security, and access model Operations: Authentication, monitoring and back up, and patch management Platform: APIs, security, search, and identity Mobile: Geo-location APIs, REST APIs, and native SDKs Social: Feeds, profiles, status updates, and file sharing

Cloud-based platform services can help you optimize your app in a variety of ways.
Businesses need to be able to easily design roles, permissions, and profiles, restrict access to specific information, and enforce their security policies on mobile apps. They also need to be able to shut down and erase data from lost or stolen devices, or customize different elements that are available in the mobile client. If your app doesnt have a social feed or way to post to a social network, youre missing out on the best opportunities for engagement and exposure. Not to mention the increased productivity employee social networks enable. The benefits of making your app, intranet, or product social are obvious. So look for a platform with social functionality built in.
Mobile employees expectation of a great user experience on any device can only be met with collaboration solutions architected with native apps and cloud delivery...
Mobilize Your Collaboration Strategy, Forrester Research, 2011
