Mobility has become a critical area of scope as businesses and enterprises have started to amalgamate technology into their core business process to increase efficiency and productivity.

Rather than just choosing just one or two applications, enterprises have started to encompass on a holistic mobility strategy, in which they are moving ahead from a mobile device management strategy to a mobile application management strategy.

This has led to a huge influx of companies providing mobility solutions to enterprises on various mobile app platforms along with BYOD solutions and real time machine-to-machine (M2M) communications. Although most of them offer all these products and more, there is a lack of added support of consulting and solution design that ensures an added layer of advanced services.

Today, most enterprises view mobility solutions as a tool that can help them ward off day to day challenges and increase efficiency as well as productivity. There is no denying of the fact that every enterprise looks for a personalized touch in their software solutions which can work around their legacy processes making it easy for them to make the transformation. This calls for various points of consideration before putting the final finger on anyone. 

The Top 3 mobility solutions providers are :

IBM Worklight ( www.ibm.com ) : IBM acquired Worklight early last year. They have been providing an open and comprehensive platform for enterprise to run and manage their mobility solutions. One of the advantage that they possess is that they incorporate standard-based technologies which ensures avoidance of code translation and phasing out of redundant processes. There have been many enterprises that use this platform to create mobile applications. Given their long history as a software solutions provider their product provides essential elements required for a successful mobile app development. Overall, a good brand and a promising market player.

Mobile Programming LLC ( www.mobileprogramming.com ) : Based in over six location across US, they have a diverse expertise in offering Enterprise mobility solutions for different platforms. With more than 1100 applications already deployed they showcase in-depth proficiency for consumer apps and enterprise apps. Time and again they seem to be showing ingenuity and flexibility by mounding the overall project as per the requirement which is highly vital for every enterprise. The major clientele they have catered to include big names like Disney, Ebay, Novartis, SAP and HTC. Some of the top ranked apps on the Appstore and Google play are built by this firm.

Kony Solutions (www.kony.com) : They have a proven track record of keeping businesses ahead of their competition. They have deployed numerous successful enterprise solutions. Their multi-channel approach makes it easy for enterprises to inherit mobile user preferences and expectations in a seamless manner. The main focus has been on keeping up with the constant stream of new devices, mobile platforms and deployment modes. They focus only on HTML5/hybrid apps as opposed to native apps.

Mobility Solutions for Enterprises is a highly competitive sector and organisations have to go through a lot of consideration before choosing a service provider. My suggestion to them would be to look at the clientele a firm has been catering to; before they evaluate other important factors. The Client list is the face of any organization!
