Selecting the Best Mobile App Platform?
5 Critical Criteria to consider
1) Popular Platforms • If you wish to get a mobile app made for your business and
customers, you have the option of choosing from the following popular platforms:
iOS
Andriod
Windows
Blackberry
Cross-Platform
2) Target Audience• Consider the target audience you want to engage before
selecting a suitable Mobile App platform. • To capture them at right place and right time, you need to
know where your users are going.• For instance, Android claims almost 80.2% of users while
iOS trails behind at 14.8%. • These two are the most popular mobile platforms for
targeting the mass market.• For targeting business and professional class audience,
BlackBerry still is a good choice.
3) Environment• The best environment option that your mobile application
developer will offer you are:
o Nativeo Webo Hybrid
Native• Native apps are expensive if you will
consider their costing and also take long time to develop.
• Still, they extend the most organic feeling and high performance for users.
• Eg. Camera, GPS or Microphone of your handset.
Web• These are not exactly applications,
rather customized websites.• Costs are comparatively lower, but
their performance is uncertain as it largely depends upon users handset and internet speed.
• Updating these apps are highly convenient as the entire setup is on the internet.
• Eg. Online Shopping Sites.
Hybrid• As the name suggests, it is the
combination of both the Native and Web Environment.
• The Hybrid package comes with the best (and the worst) of both the environments.
• In particular, hybrid apps run inside a native container, and leverage the device’s browser engine to render the HTML and process the JavaScript locally.
• Problems with these apps are that it’s difficult for you to track the traffic and other important data in Hybrid Applications.
4) Scalability• Scalability of mobile application is vital.• Your app should be capable of handling dense traffic, so
that it does not crash.• Consider integrating your mobile app with cloud servers to
prevail over any such performance issues.• Apps that have Cloud scalability, tend to have future growth
prospect intact.
5) Maintenance & Update• While you get your mobile app to cater for your existing
business needs, never ignore your future prospects.• The app you get developed should be easy to maintain to
handle an ever-growing number of users.• Also, updating the apps should be convenient, so that it
doesn’t disturb the previous setup of the users much.
