Web & Mobility
When enabling business processes we are increasingly finding the need to extend the presentation of solutions onto the public web or mobile devices. In years gone by this involved presenting solutions as locally installed desktop applications, MS office add-in’s, or most commonly internally facing web solutions.
Now, with the advent of Web 2.0, Cloud Technologies and the proliferation of the smart phone, your employees, customers and partners can engage with your solutions through these now familiar channels.
Extending solutions to these channels is not a trivial task. Whilst the technology is available and relatively simple to enable, doing this in a reliable and repeatable manner can be challenging. nVisionIT brings not only technical know-how, but domain expertise in the areas of Mobility and Web enablement.
Web
The Web has, and will continue to change the way organisations do business. To effectively interact with the web a company must successfully marry different technologies (CSS< HTML< JAVA etc.) with an understanding of what works on the web. With 10 years’ experience in building business solutions nVisionIT is the right partner to help you navigate these decisions. Inherent in our approach is guiding our customers around the following :
What can I realistically expect my customers/partners to do, how do I make it intuitive?
What browsers and versions to support ?
To Flash or not to Flash, Silverlight or HTML 5 ?
Do I need to hire an SEO specialist?
Single Sign On?
Mobility
Today organisations want to do more with the devices that their employees already have. nVisionIT enables this by providing mobile solutions that target the Mobile Web, Cross-Platform environments as well as on-device applications. This provides our clients the flexibility to choose the solution that best meets their needs without constraining them to a particular device or platform.
