HTML5 or Native?... That is the Mobile Question!
"How should I deploy my site or application to mobile?" This is a common question we hear from...
“HTML5 can help improve online customer experiences because it can potentially deliver a seamless experience, improved search results, and better site performance… While HTML5 has the potential to improve some user experiences, it comes with its own set of implementation challenges that can outweigh its benefits.”
— Forrester Research, Inc., “HTML 5: Is There Any Truth To The Hype?,” May 2010The rapid proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and even smart televisions has dramatically changed the discussion around application development. Enterprises were already struggling to find effective ways to reach their customers via the web browser. Now they face a new world in which customers expect content and services to be available any time, anywhere, on an expanding number of platforms.
So how can your enterprise create digital solutions that are easily accessible to customers across a wide variety of platforms? And how can you deliver these solutions in a financially responsible and logistically feasible manner?
In many cases, HTML5 offers a compelling answer to these questions. From helping deliver content to customers on the go to enabling customers to smoothly interact with your business services, HTML5 has the potential to support a variety of organizational needs.
But while the possibilities are promising, HTML5 isn’t a silver bullet. It’s still an evolving standard, and development tools are immature. And subtle differences in the ways in which different platforms support HTML5 can introduce complexities into the development process.
