Aplicativos nativos, multiplataforma, híbridos ou baseados em nuvem: qual é a escolha certa para suas necessidades móveis?

Native, cross-platform, hybrid, or cloud-based apps: which is the right choice for your mobile needs?

Before planning your next mobile app, you need to know which type is right for your business.

The biggest disadvantage of cross-platform mobile app development is that they can be more expensive because you are hiring developers who know very specific technologies. But while these apps may be a little more expensive, they allow you to deliver apps for both platforms much faster.

Cloud-based mobile apps

This type of application was designed so that it can be accessed from any type of computer device. Both cloud mobile apps and web apps are very similar. The biggest difference is that cloud-based mobile apps tend to run in a virtual environment (like a third-party cloud host). Just like web apps, cloud-based mobile apps are not downloaded or installed, but are served from cloud-hosted accounts and platforms.

This means that, just like web apps, developers only need to write an app that can be viewed on Android and iOS. The biggest disadvantage of cloud-based mobile applications is that developers must be skilled enough to write and manage numerous APIs and work cost-effectively with cloud services; otherwise, this type of app can go way beyond your development budget.

Conclusion

In the end, the choice is simple. If you want the best app experience for your end users, opt for a native mobile app. If you want to cut costs but provide a good end-user experience, go hybrid. If you want fast delivery and lower cost, opt for the web-based application.

No matter which path you take, remember that it is important to make a choice. Your company needs a mobile application to make it easier for more and more customers to access your products and services.
