Welcome to the inescapable world of mobile application development

With a smartphone in every pocket and new digital technologies launching daily, mobile applications are an assumed expectation for your customers and employees.

To keep up with the competition and deliver the best possible customer interactions, enterprises must provide consistent, convenient experiences across an array of modern mobile technologies.

But mobile application development can be complex — even for seasoned developers — and is often a laborious undertaking for businesses with insufficient resources or traditional development processes.

  • Limited skillsets

    Mobile development is a specialty with a very small talent pool. Plus, mobile developers typically only have experience building one type of mobile application.

  • Complex processes

    Mobile application development is arduous and time-intensive, and developers must maintain multiple codebases, languages, and frameworks for every application.

  • Weak user experiences

    Customer and employee mobile experiences are lackluster and unintuitive when applications don’t utilize device integrations and gestures.

Demystify mobile application development with low-code

Low-code mobile application development alleviates the burdens of typical development practices by replacing complex coding with visual, model-driven processes.

Build browser-based progressive web applications, sophisticated native iOS and Android applications, and responsive web experiences all in a single platform. Low-code enables enterprises to deliver native device features and rich user experiences while leveraging the latest mobile technologies.

Developers without mobile experience can create exceptional mobile applications with a low-code platform, while experienced developers can extend those applications with custom coding for maximum openness and extensibility.

  • No complex coding

    Low-code platforms provide a suite of tools, technologies, components, and services that shield developers from the complexity of mobile application development.

  • Fast innovation

    Low-code’s visual and collaborative nature makes mobile application development more accessible and can reduce application development time by up to 90%.

  • Unbeatable experiences

    Create consistent, user-centric experiences for customers and employees across all digital avenues.

How much does it cost to develop a mobile application?

The price of building a mobile application depends on many factors. If you are using conventional development, the time to market and cost will depend on the complexity of the application. If you are using a low-code platform, development time is accelerated and more teams can contribute, which can reduce or eliminate many of the costs associated with traditional development.
