Coltfox is a creative marketing agency. We create intelligent, living systems for people to experience their usability and effectiveness. Our founding principle was based on a simple idea "do good work, and everything else happens." I think this is what sets us apart from other agencies, as we haven't wavered from that belief since we started. We are constantly striving to do better work, and in that process, it has allowed us to grow.

Technology is constantly evolving. At Coltfox, we believe strongly that we need to combine strategy, design, development, and technology to create innovative work. I think technology can positively impact design, though. For example, a few years ago, Flash was all the rage as a technology, and today it's pretty much dead. HTML5 has risen to replace it, and that has impacted how we design today based on what it can and can't do. The rise of tablets and smartphones has undoubtedly played a role in this as well as a driving factor for this evolution. This drives design in the way we need to think about these different platforms as a system, and at the same time, it requires us to think about the context in which these devices will be used. Design can differentiate a pleasant experience from a bad one even if the technology is the same. Since everything is connected, the key is to think about how they can best work together to deliver an engaging experience.

The success of an app depends mainly on the capacity of the developer or the team involved in its development. When you choose us, your app ideas instantly become a possibility. Coltfox will help you to implement your ideas and provide valuable suggestions. There are tremendous benefits attached to hiring us for your app development project, some of which include standing out from the competition, getting the right user experience, and getting a better return on investment.

There are a lot of app development companies spread around offering their services, but to find the best partner, you would need to do some homework. Below are eight essential considerations that would help you arrive at the best choice;
1. Expertise.
2. App development process.
3. Design and user experience.
4. Coding standards.
5. Customer reference and past work.
6. App testing.
7. Data security.
8. Third-party software integration.

The powerful capabilities of today’s mobile devices provide fertile ground for countless exciting applications. Although the demand is highest for consumer apps, new business applications are also emerging constantly to allow employees and partners to work more productively. For any enterprise that wants to engage, inform, and assist its customers or employees, mobile applications create opportunities that are impossible to ignore.

While many companies would love to reach a mobile audience, they’re often uncertain about how to proceed in this incredibly dynamic environment. This paper addresses the most critical decision they’ll have to make: the development architecture that provides the foundation for a mobile application. Do you choose native development, a cross-mobile platform, or a mobile web solution? Each approach has its strengths, weaknesses, and appropriate use cases—how do you sort through the different parameters to make the right choice? There’s also a variety of development frameworks and tools for each approach. How do you choose the right one?

As the paper guides you through these critical issues, it draws upon Coltfox’s experience helping companies succeed in the rapidly evolving mobile landscape. It examines the requirements you need to consider, the key characteristics of each approach, and what factors go into making a decision. The paper also discusses some real-life examples that put the concepts described here into practice.

While many technology options are available for mobile applications development, it’s possible to simplify the whole process. Mobile applications can be developed in three fundamental ways:
NATIVE APPS
Build the application in its native code to run on a specific device and operating system. The app is downloaded from an app store and resides on the device.

CROSS-PLATFORM APPS
Build the application once using a cross-platform framework and run it on multiple mobile platforms (after fine-tuning for each platform). It’s also downloaded from an app store and resides on the device.

MOBILE WEB APPS
Build the application to run over the internet from a central server, from where any device can access it with the help of a web browser.

Due to differences in the underlying technology, each approach has inherent advantages and drawbacks, development frameworks, and appropriate use cases. Careful analysis is required to ensure that an application is built using the right technology for the functionality required.

NATIVE DEVELOPMENT: THE BEST EXPERIENCE, BUT AT HIGHER COST
Despite the maturing of other approaches, applications developed in a device’s native code continue to provide the richest, most compelling user experience. Native apps are optimized for the operating environment they run on, and can fully leverage device hardware (GPS, camera, graphics) as well as software (calendar, contacts, file system, etc.). Another key advantage is the ability to run offline since the application remains installed on the device after the first download. Data transfers can resume (and re-sync with back- end apps) when the connection is restored.

Access to some device features may require an app to be written in the native environment. While apps built using multi-platform frameworks or web apps can access some device features, native apps inherently provide full access and performance. This is particularly true on the latest versions of a device equipped with new technology that only native apps can support.

Here are some final thoughts on choosing the right architecture for your mobile application: If cost is not a constraint, native apps provide the best features and performance.

• “Develop once and run anywhere” is an important concept, but there are different approaches for achieving it. A mobile web app provides almost universal coverage for a relatively modest development effort. Cross-platform frameworks can provide a richer experience while reaching the most strategically important mobile devices.

• If the requirement is to build iOS and Android apps while providing the best user experience, Coltfox recommends native apps. When development is limited to these two platforms, there may not be a cost advantage in using a cross-platform framework. If the requirement is to build for all platforms including BlackBerry and Windows Mobile, cross-platform development can provide cost benefits, although at the expense of usability.

• Native apps and web apps are not mutually exclusive; they can complement each other to help an organization engage its mobile customers and employees. For example, in retail, native apps provide current customers with the best possible experience while mobile web apps ensure visibility in web searches for new customers. while reaching the most strategically important mobile devices.

• Native and web apps will coexist for the foreseeable future. As HTML5 matures, mobile web apps will continue to take on richer, more native-like capabilities. For many apps, the economy is of software development will increasingly favor HTML5 and related tools. However, native apps will remain the choice for engaging users with the richest experiences and the latest device functionality (at least for the next few years).

• Will there be much further consolidation? Probably not, at least for the next few years. Customer loyalties, fierce competition, unique technologies and lack of standards mean that multiple platform architectures and the need to develop for them will remain a fact of life for the foreseeable future.

The cost to build and manage a mobile application will vary widely depending on the development architecture. Mobile web apps are the most affordable since the same app can run on any device with a web browser (even if it may look slightly “clunky”). They are also the least expensive to maintain.

Building native apps on multiple platforms cost typically the most, with each new platform adding 75-150% of the cost to develop for the first platform. In contrast, cross-platform and mobile web development add only about 20-25% of the original price. Native apps that run on multiple platforms also add significantly to support and maintenance costs, as different skill sets are required on various platforms. Of course, the benefits of a compelling native application (customer loyalty, increased sales, etc.) may make the higher development and maintenance costs a desirable investment!
