We can assist you in identifying and quantifying the value of mobile solutions in your organization.
2.2 Smart Client based Solutions
As businesses worldwide try to develop web applications to replace their old desktop applications, standard old style web applications have struggled to give the same performance that desktop applications would. ‘Smart Client’ features are playing a big part in bridging that gap.
Smart clients are easily deployed and managed client applications that provide an adaptive and interactive experience by leveraging local resources and intelligently connecting to distributed data sources. They provide the benefits of a rich client model with thin client manageability and also provide much more flexibility than the traditional rich client applications.
We have expertise in providing smart client solutions that address a milieu of business related problems including:
- Deployment of a newer version of application – i.e. Intelligent Install and Update
- Need of data both online and offline – i.e. offline capable
- Access to Dynamically Updated Information

The business benefits realized are:
- Change and deploy business rules even as the application is running.
- By enabling a significant reduction in coordination costs and a higher rate of automation, it reduces the requirement for qualified personnel to implement business processes, and maintain the IT systems.
