Mobile applications are great for your business only if you can tap into your target community. What if your target community is a heterogeneous mix of different platforms? What if the odds favor none as a clear winner? You choose to customize your app for each native platform but would the cost justify the benefits? Adobe has an answer to this challenge. It’s called PhoneGap, a cross platform cloud-based solution that helps you create your app once and deploy later on multiple platforms.

Businesses around the world face a common challenge while developing a mobile app-which is the best platform to create a mobile app? There could be different answers to this question, however, the choice depends of a multitude of factors such as demographics of the target audience, key brand associations you want to create, budget, and integration with the enterprise systems already in place. If you don’t have an obvious winner in the preliminary analysis, then you may get confused about the right strategy for developing your app.

Many cross platform mobile development tools have come up to resolve this dilemma. PhoneGap, Rhomobile and Titanium are a few leading frameworks that can be used to create innovative cross platform mobile apps. Among these, PhoneGap is the most recognized framework. It is the only Mobile framework that supports 7 different platforms including iPhone, Android, Symbian, Windows and BlackBerry.

Some of the benefits of using a cross platform framework are:

• Freedom from the native technology of mobile devices manufacturers
• Leverage your existing skills in HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
• Ability to innovate with the native capabilities of devices such as geo location and storage.
• Superior customization due to open source nature of the framework.
• Huge savings in development budget and deployment on multiple platforms.
• Wider reach in the target community.
• Significantly low cost of introducing new versions and updates.
