This is a an age-old debate.
With the emergence of new development platforms for both Windows and Web in
Microsoft .NET 3.5,
Silverlight
and
Ajax from the Microsoft camp, compelling and efficient user interfaces can
be built for both environments.
Several factors come into play when
deciding. The factors include, but are not limited to, the development time it
takes to get the product to market/production, the deployment requirements and
restrictions, functionality, resources, training... the list goes on.
What happens if the link goes down?
Does the application come to a halt? The Windows/Web decision should not
be made into a company policy. Windows applications have their place as do
web applications. Each application should be assessed on its own merits before
deciding on the platform.
With over 18 years experience in
designing, developing and delivering custom business applications, we know that
we can help you choose the most appropriate development and deployment platform
for your application.

The explosion of new mobile devices on the
market coupled with very affordable data packages, mobile business
applications are now more a viable reality than ever.
Does your sales force write down
orders and then phone/fax them in whilst on the road to the next customer?
Sales force automation is a common
term around our corridors. We have been delivering mobile sales force
solutions for over seven years. During this time, we have seen improvements in
all areas of this market; in orders of magnitude.
-
Devices are faster and have more
storage and runtime memory
-
Device's operating systems are more
sophisticated and feature rich; including telephony automation, email
synchronisation and GPS integration.
-
Development tools unlock the newly
accessible operating system features
The key improvements provide the
necessary resources to build worthwhile, compelling and efficient applications.
Why would you still get your sales rep to fill out forms (that cost money to
print), to then call the order in on a mobile call (that costs money), to talk
to a person in the office (that costs money) to then potentially make data entry
errors (that cost money to rectify). With a custom mobile solution, the
rep can scan the order, confirm the quantities and then transmit it directly
into the Invoicing System for picking and packing.
Mobile Business Applications have a
very specific use that can save you thousands of dollars if implemented
correctly with the appropriate supporting business processes in place.
