Consumer Mobility
What handsets should we be targeting? What platform should we choose for building our solution? Can we assume GPRS/3G access on my customer handsets? How should we reach them?
Our team will start of by helping you answer some of these questions and translate your concepts into a product requirement. For instance, most of the consumer based mobile businesses tend to reach out maximum handsets. Using our extensive knowledgebase and frameworks we’ll help you determine what are the right handsets that your demographics is using and what would be the most cost effective way to create an application that runs on all these handsets.
We will work with you in defining everything from the usability on how your solution would adopt onto various devices and form factors to completely architecting the middleware required for shaping your idea into a product. For instance, a Blackberry and an iPhone though similar in screen size have a completely different usage behavior thus an application that simply tries to replicate the Blackberry experience onto iPhone would likely fail.
