The speed of change in information technologies is breathtaking, but nowhere else are small-to-midsized businesses more impacted than by leveraging the cloud and mobile technologies. If you’re still building server rooms, you’re increasing your OpEx. If you haven’t determined how to manage mobile devices – from BYOD to mobile applications – you could be giving your competition a leg up.
The easiest step forward for the SMB marketplace is to leverage the cloud – and cloud offerings (also known as Software as a Service, or SaaS).
For many firms, designing and deploying mobile applications helps them further engage with their customers. From health and wellness apps to retailer-specific shopping apps to financial apps, the world of mobile continues to explode. For most companies, key considerations include platform, business operational impacts, and ongoing maintenance and support. While Android has a larger market share, the iOS marketplace cannot be ignored.
