17. 10 Best Practices of Building Enterprise
Mobile Apps

18. Best Practice: 1
Focus on Your Strategy and Mobile Use
Cases

19. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Mobile Use Cases
Mobile is
Transformative
Quickest tendency is
to take what you
have and put it on
mobile device
How can it help
increase productivity
of my company
Develop a
strategy
That is not the
best use
Field apps

20. Best Practice: 2
Focus on the Right App Candidate(s)

21. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Right App Candidate
What is the
value it
provides?
Go through
the actual
business
process
Can we build
it?
Security
Is it business
incremental?

22. Best Practice: 3
Develop a easy UX

23. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Easy UX
Mobile is all
about UX
People wont
use if you don’t
get this right
You don’t have
to cram
everything into
it
In mobile, its
about removing
the features
rather than
adding
Get to task on
hand as quickly
as possible

24. Best Practice: 4
Develop an Appropriate UI

25. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Appropriate UI
Its all about being
effective
Remember there
are more than 1M
apps
For Brochure ware
apps, its all about
glamour
For productivity
apps, its about
keeping it simple –
Get things done

26. Best Practice: 5
Identify Target Devices and Prototype
Iteratively

27. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Target Devices and Prototypes
Common ask – it
should work on
everything
Android has
120,000
combinations
Development is
completely
different across
environments
Develop device
management
plans
Develop hands on
prototype - As fast
and as early
Give the
prototype to
actual users
Decide if it’s a
device being
provided or is it
BYOD

28. Best Practice: 6
Identify the Right Development Toolset

29. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Development Tool Set
Understand The App
Deployment Implications
There Is So Much Noise
Out There
HTML / Native / Cross
Platform / Hybrid
Let the use case
determine the technology
Focus On The Use Case
Is the scale going to be
large; or load going to be
elastic?

30. Best Practice: 7
Plan for Security & Data

31. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Plan for Data and Security
It is intrinsic to
the mobile
experience
Where is the
data coming
from and going
to?
How many data
sources?
Do we maintain
state?
Offline/online?
Is there any
data
mobilization
required?

32. Best Practice: 8
Plan for a Thorough Testing

33. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Testing
Approach
Strategy
No amount of testing is
enough
User ranking in the App
Store – your brand is at
stake
User
Plan for functional testing,
test automation,
regression testing
Testing
User Testing – Gestures &
other functions of phone
Carrier / Network Testing
Session Testing

34. Best Practice: 9
Plan for Deployment

35. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
Deployment
Is it private app
store?
Is it public app
store?
Do you need to
have an
MDM/MAM
solution?

36. Best Practice: 10
Remember, it’s a Start

37. © 2010 WinWire Technologies
It’s a Start
Your app
development
project is a start
The ecosystem is
continuously
changing
How do you
support and
maintain?
Refresh, upgrade &
accommodate
change
Keep users coming
back and
productivity levels
high
