A PERSPECTIVE FROM THE ‘SHOP FLOOR’
4
A GLANCE AT THE PAST: Q3 2010
Cross-Platform Development Porting
•The same operating system
•The same development tools
•Different Platforms
•Different Operating Systems
•Different Development Environments
5
A GLANCE AT THE PAST: Q4 2011
Native development (Objective-C,
Java, etc.) • Targeted for the only platform
• Needs programming knowledge and
experience
• (All best apps are native apps!)
HTML5, mobile web, PhoneGap • Needs HTML5 and JavaScript
knowledge
• Lack of professional, experienced
developers using JavaScript mobile
frameworks
• Slower and less polished apps than
native ones
Platforms like Netbuiscuits,
Titanium, Marmelade, S2M etc. • Need some time to learn the
platform
• Multiplatform development
• There are some restrictions of the
platform
Mobile builders like BiznessApps,
MobileRoadie, etc. • Produce native apps
• Targeted for application categories:
like RSS reader, e-shop, etc.
• Suitable only for really simple apps

WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING
ON THE ‘SHOP’ FLOOR
7
• Average size of each project is ~400 hours
• HTML platform projects are significant smaller
• 90% of all projects are client & server side
• Global companies (primarily B2C) with corporate
marketing departments tend to make a strategic
cross-platform choice for their global (corporate
controlled) marketing efforts ( reach)
• Larger media companies still seem undecided ...
• Increasing number of native apps being developed
for B2B use
• Certain sectors are pushing hard on mobile web
(travel)
• Tablets playing an increasing role (T-Commerce)
‘SHOP’ FLOOR - RETROSPECTIVE

• Magic wand exam failed. There is no magic in
the mobile world...
• On the contrary – the landscape has become
more complex!

constantly changing
