We write computer programs on multiple platforms. Are you unsure of which platform is the best for your particular problem? Most of the time the business needs of the project and available resources of your company will dictate the best platform for each situation.
Platform Name | Description |
---|---|
Mobile Devices | One of the fastest growing platforms, mobile devices apps run primarily on Apple, Android, and Windows smart phones and tablets. Mobile device hardware including GPS antennas, cameras, and motion sensors provide even more opportunities to engage the end user when writing programs on this platform. |
Website Applications | Web applications are perfect when you want your solution to be accessible anywhere in the world there is an Internet connection. Programs written on this platform will work on almost any computer or device that has a Web Browser. |
Desktop Applications | Considered more secure than Web applications, desktop applications can easily interact with attached hardware like barcode readers, installed software like QuickBooks, and more! |
Server Applications | Perfect for when you want a computer program to perform a task behind the scenes. Normally set to run at a specific time or interval each day, no user interactions are required. |
Web API | Do you need two computer programs from different companies to talk with one another? A Web API, a special form of web applications, might be your best bet. The scenarios possibilities are endless but they almost always revolve around transmitting and receiving data. Synchronize contact lists, getting information from vendors, and receiving orders from strategic partners are only some of the great possibilities in this category. |
Kiosks | Sometimes it is better when a computer is used for only one specific purpose. Creating a Kiosk, a special form of desktop applications, can help make this come true. Add in a touch screen monitor and we no longer need a keyboard or mouse too! |
