According to a recent survey by Zenprise, 81% of organizations will deploy mobile apps in the next 12 months. As for where they will get those apps, there will be an even split between enterprises that build their apps in house (41%) and those that use mobile apps developed by third parties (40%). (See Zenprise’s Infographic, Mobile Gets A Promotion, for highlights of the results of the company’s survey, which asked 501 IT executives about their enterprise mobility strategies.)

With ViziApps, enterprises can take either approach – make mobile apps in-house or entrust ViziApps experts to build them. Or they could try both, depending on their resources and the number of apps they need.

Each approach takes advantage of ViziApps drag and drop, no-coding process for building mobile apps that incorporate business data from a Google Docs spreadsheet or an SQL server. In significantly less time than it would take an organization to build mobile apps using a traditional coding process, ViziApps customers can get the mobile apps they need to drive employee productivity, enhance customer relationships, and support critical enterprise mobility initiatives.

As the use of mobile apps in the enterprise grows, companies are implementing – or considering implementing – their own enterprise app stores. By adapting the highly successful app store model, companies can experience many benefits, including:

• A convenient way to make approved corporate mobile apps and upgrades available to employees, partners and others
• The ability to control mobile device users’ access to confidential corporate data
• The ability to manage the types of apps employees use for business

Marco Nielsen, VP, Services at < a ="http://www.enterprisemobile.com/" target="_blank">Enterprise Mobile, sees the growing use of corporate mobile apps driving the need to implement both mobile device management and mobile app management (MDM and MAM) on a large scale. Through professional and outsourcing services, Enterprise Mobile helps companies deploy and manage mobility initiatives across mobility platforms. Through work with global businesses, Nielsen sees enterprise app stores playing a significant role in how companies are managing both mobile devices and apps.

”Many of our global customers rely on an enterprise app store to rapidly deploy apps to iPads and other mobile devices,” Nielsen reports. “Their management solutions allow for deploying some apps worldwide but limit others to use in specific countries. That way, through carefully planned deployments, companies ensure that the mobile apps they have approved for use on their tablets and smartphones are used to their best advantage.”

Today it’s estimated that only 10 percent of enterprises have their own app stores, but that number is expected to jump. At last year’s Gartner Symposium/ITxpo, Peter Sondergaard, senior vice president at Gartner and global head of research, predicted that “by 2014, private app stores will be deployed by 60 percent of IT organizations.”

And in a recent article in Voice and Data, Gartner Research Vice President Brian Prentice wrote: “The dynamics that drive public app stores are consistent with those that will ultimately drive private app stores in the enterprises.” He recommends that enterprises provide access to more than their own mobile apps in their app stores. He also suggests including third-party apps, as well providing links to public app stores and enterprise content.

Wired magazine blogger Scott Schwarzhoff suggests that an enterprise app store can provide a wide range of services. In a post titled “How IT Can Better Equip the Mobile Workforce,” he writes that an enterprise app store can be a “unified store for all apps and data, app availability based on role, app request workflows, self-service subscriptions, native app delivery for mobile devices in use, and ‘follow-me’ access to information across devices.” Разработчикам игрового сайта казино Fresh удалось воспроизвести ту самую атмосферу на страницах online казино.

Managing mobile apps for the enterprise is challenging. An enterprise app store provides a proven means of controlling and managing them for a medium-sized business or a large global enterprise.

ViziApps enables creation of enterprise mobile apps without coding. However, it also lets app builders enrich their mobile apps and user experience using JavaScript.

Now, a new video provides users a step-by-step tutorial on how to use the ViziApps drag and drop designer and JavaScript to create visually appealing, data-rich, robust mobile apps.

The video demonstrates how to build a mobile app for business use in the ViziApps Studio and incorporate custom scripts, libraries, and plug-ins to provide functionality beyond what can be done without coding. Some examples of enhanced functionality that use of JavaScript can provide include:

• Using the accelerometer
• Enhanced media capture (media files)
• Managing connections (checking network state and cellular network information)
• Enhancing camera operations
• Using the compass
• Accessing on-device contacts (work with the contact database)
• Managing file transfers
• Integrating geo-location mapping
• Playing media (record and play back audio files)
• Sending notifications
• Accessing storage (hook into native storage options)

In response to customer feedback, we are always adding new features to the ViziApps mobile app development tool. By enhancing the tool, we’re enabling enterprises and small businesses to more quickly and easily design and publish mobile apps to promote their business and strengthen customer and partner relationships.

One of the newest features in ViziApps is Snap to Grid.

A recent survey by App Central revealed that many enterprise mobility projects are not necessarily covered by IT budgets. Instead they may be funded by business units, marketing, sales and executive accounts. As a result, enterprises often must scramble to find the budget and technical resources needed to meet requirements for mobile apps that can boost employee productivity and enhance customer relationships.

With ViziApps, any enterprise group can design and build their own mobile apps at no cost. Then, after their app is completed, ViziApps charges a low monthly subscription publishing fee, based on number of app pages and users. Making updates to a published app is free. Updates are pushed to app users automatically, at no additional charge.

As a result, enterprises can take advantage of the ViziApps no-coding approach to mobile app development to design build mobile business apps in much less time than a traditional software development project would take. When the need for a new mobile app arises, users with sophisticated computer skills can create branded apps quickly. And because ViziApps fees are very low, both business units and IT teams can now provide mobile apps for use by customers, employees, partners, suppliers, and others on a very reasonable budget.
