COLTFOX PRIVATE LIMITED Executive Interview
I founded Livepedia almost 3 years ago with Mr. Satvik Mahajan. We recently rebranded Livepedia to Coltfox. I am the creative director, which means I'm responsible for both the strategic thinking and detailed execution behind our work. After working for a bit in Bangalore and other parts of India, I ended up here in Bangalore and decided to call this place home. I was never formally trained as a creative director and have always learned by doing whether I succeeded or failed. I'm still learning every day, and that's what keeps me going.
We started with no investment, no table, no chairs but a phone and got our very first client the next day. Starting with little investment may have made getting off the ground a bit harder, but it only made us stronger. We never forget the leap of faith a client has to make when appointing us as their brand custodians and believe we have a responsibility to ensure that we deliver success for our clients.
DESIGN & MARKETING IS OUR BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY.
We think about design& marketing in a unique way. It is a way of looking at the world and how we can improve it. Regardless of the medium, we consider everything we do to be designed. Our design& marketing approach is centered on the relationship between the end user and the brand. We go beyond the norm by clearly defining the over-arching brand promise and reverse design to achieve their marketing goal.
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.

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.
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.
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.
• “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.
Our approach combines technical resources, design talent, and understanding of your business to deliver mobile solutions that are not just compelling but also extremely cost-effective. Whether your goal is a rich, memorable consumer app or an application that improves the productivity of thousands of employees, we are here to help with a flexible payment structure depending on your project timeline and requirement.
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!
