Defined by Kony.com as a “mobile application that is used to solve enterprise problems,” these apps use a complex software platform to bridge the technology gaps at a company, helping it to go where it may not have gone before. A purpose-built enterprise mobile application is able to be deployed on many different networks, devices, and operating systems. That last point is critical, as companies today are looking to reach their employees where they “live” – taking advantage of the trend for team members to use personalized mobile devices to access corporate applications and data (a process called Bring Your Own Device, or BYOD).
For aficionados of the Star Trek series, it would be hard to dispute the importance of the Starship Enterprise. Designed to go where no one had gone before, the Enterprise was loaded with best-in-class technology; it is a tool that made its humans more clever and agile and was a vessel that helped solve the problems of deep space.
Like its fictional counterpart, an enterprise mobile application can have world-beating, transformative properties for those who experience its power.
Indeed, any company can benefit from investing in an enterprise mobile application. An enterprise mobile application can help organizations be more efficient while eliminating the expense of purchasing and providing company devices to team members.
Other benefits of enterprise mobile applications include:
Talking to bots has come a long way. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) offer the ability for businesses to automate routine tasks, thus improving overall productivity within an organization. According to the website Sphinx-solution.com, AI can wear a multitude of hats, including that of “an assistant, a guide to the users, an intelligent sensor and the ability to monitor business calls.”
By simulating human conversation, AI tools such as voice-based assistants and chatbots can enhance customer service for a company. Existing examples of this technology that has people talking to computers include Facebook Messenger Bot and Amazon Alexa.
Engagement and business operations got a further upgrade back in 2017, when AR and VR made a splash on the mobile enterprise application scene. Imagine an environment where, without having to use hands, your employees can see their required digital information without really moving from their desks or tapping keys. Retailers can use such AR technologies to view retail inventory and sales data. And, VR has even made its way into video conferencing, allowing greater productivity to result from these sessions.
Blockchain, which earned headlines as the process behind the Bitcoin digital currency, provides a safe and secure data processing environment for all enterprises. We can see the advent of blockchain technology in areas such as:
· Blockchain-based wallets
· Industry-specific customer applications
· Enterprise blockchain apps with AI integration
· Blockchain-based personal identification apps
Industries such as retail, finance, automobiles, and airlines are finding that blockchain technology can be the perfect addition to their enterprise mobile app solutions.
