The Mobile Marketplace: Gaining popularity in IT outsourcing

The ever increasing trend towards business applications for mobile devices has created more demand for mobile application development. This is a trend embraced by Shinetech. Jerry Zhang, Shinetech founder and CEO has stated: “Shinetech over the last year or more has built substantial teams in iOS, Android and Windows. A substantial part of Shinetech’s sales drive involves this developing and continually changing market, particularly in the UK and Europe.”

Mobile tablets and Smartphone enterprise-level app usage is likely to grow enormously. While current use may be limited to senior managers and niche users, the trend will be toward increased use of enterprise applications throughout organizations. For example, tablets and related apps are increasingly used by the medical profession as tools to communicate with patients.

The increased use of HTML5 for mobile applications will also have an impact, so much so that the use of such apps may reach 15 percent by the end of 2012. This new development reflects the constantly evolving world of software development, an evolution we pride ourselves in meeting the challenges for.

A demand for mobile application development isn’t the only new software trend we’ve seen gaining ground. Stay tuned for next week’s blog, where we will explore other growing trends in the world of IT outsourcing.
