Mobile Application Development
The development of application software for mobile devices is
currently one of the hottest topics in the IT industry. Perhaps
ranked in the top three with Cloud Computing and
Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS"), few other topics receive the amount
of ink and HTML now dedicated to Mobile computing.
Businesses and other organizations are now demanding the
"mobilization" of many of their public-facing and internal systems.
In most cases the desired applications go well beyond advertising
content or downsized websites. Organizations now want fully
functional systems, capable of operating within the native
environments of Apple iOS and Google
Android.
Marathon Consulting has been providing Mobile App Development
services to various clients for several years. Marathon has
considerable experience in both environments, allowing our
consultants to develop expertise in all aspects of software design,
construction, and deployment in a mobile setting.
Our development teams leverage each device's data manipulation,
display, and logic execution capabilities. In each case the
developers are able to compare development platforms and devices
(tablets and smartphones) and utilize a series of "best practices"
for the different environments.
Marathon's experience now enables us to provide valuable thought
leadership to organizations that may be considering mobile app
development. The environment is evolving rapidly, especially in the
critical area of software coding through the use of Object Oriented
technologies.
One of the ways that Marathon contributes to client success in
this arena is through the execution of effective Business
Analysis and Project Management techniques. Like all
software development, mobile app development requires a thorough
definition of functional requirements and priorities. It also
requires a practical method for defining and executing a plan for
the management of the software development process. Marathon excels
in both of these areas, holding a 100% success rate on our Application
Development engagements.
