Mobile app development is the process of creating software applications that run on wireless smartphones, tablets, or wearable devices. App development helps business information and processes digital, allowing corporate data to easily travel on desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets.
Traditionally, app development requires experienced development teams to:
Alpha Software has an experienced team of friendly app developers that can teach you how to build mobile apps.
Your company is never too big or too small for Alpha's team of friendly professionals and project managers. We're here to help you meet the app development needs of your business. We'll ensure you have the knowledge and tools you need to develop applications for your business.
Coding apps for mobile devices is time intensive and difficult. Mobile applications must be secure, adapt to different screen sizes and work on different operating systems. Mobile app development must consider online and offline operation and a range of new features available on mobile devices. As a result, it can take years to master mobile app development.
Unfortunately, there aren't enough experienced mobile developers to code the hundreds of apps businesses need to stay competitive. Finding and hiring mobile app developers or outsourcing app development can be costly and challenging.
The only way most companies can scale app development is by adopting low-code mobile app development. Low code app development saves time by doing a good amount of complex mobile app development for you. It allows people without mobile app experience to build mobile apps.
Companies around the world use Alpha Software low-code software to build cross-platform mobile apps.
We have years of experience developing state of the art enterprise apps and business management software.
We've developed better, faster ways to innovative app development and simplify digital transformation for thousands of customers.
The best app development software takes advantage of device capabilities such as cameras, microphones, GPS, digital ink, and bar code scanners. Leading software takes into account different operating systems: iOS, Android and Windows. It produces apps that work without a WiFi or cell signal, and instantly adapt to different size screens.
Strong app development software can help deliver critical business to data to users on affordable mobile devices or BYOD devices. Apps can speed the collection of data in the field. They can initiate business processes. Some examples include:
A rep on a sales call can instantly get the entire purchase history of a customer on his smartphone.
An inspector can shave hours off an inspector using a mobile app versus a paper form.
An app can alert a service repair rep if a pipeline measurement in the field falls outside of safe parameters.
We're focused on producing the most innovative, flexible mobile app development software on the market.
Our app development software, app templates, solutions, training, mentoring, and support simplify app development challenges and speed digital transformation.
There's a growing shortage of professional developers. Silicon Angle estimates that there are 660,000 open jobs for software developers, but only 75,000 graduating computer science majors yearly. 40% of companies report suffering from an app development skills gap.
Companies are finding other methods to quickly get these apps developed. Enter the "citizen developer." These are business users outside of IT using app development tools to solve business problems.
Gartner reports that 41% of CIOs already have citizen development projects established that involve low-code or no-code products. Another 20% of CIOs have citizen developer projects in the evaluation or planning phases.
Modern app development software should train both experienced and first-time developers to do mobile app development. Software and training materials should guide both types of users to leverage their knowledge to solve business problems with mobile apps.
Some jobs are phased out, and people who are laid off frequently need to turn to entirely new fields. It can be a daunting task to retrain yourself for the new economy after years at a previous job.

See why Alpha Software mobile app development software comes out on top:
The COVID-19 pandemic has sped up digital transformation projects. Businesses require new apps to serve remote employees and customers. They also have an urgent need for mobile app developers. Demand for software developers will be 5 times greater than for any other job.
Companies with more remote workers than ever must also build solutions that leverage 5G and the new WiFi 6 standard. Companies also hope to gain a competitive advantage from Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. And more than ever, the employees using these technologies first engage on their mobile devices.
To get apps built without hiring more mobile developers, companies are turning to app development software. Forrester predicts that in 2021, 75% of all development shops will adopt low code app development software.
The Alpha platform is the only unified mobile and web app development and deployment environment with distinct “no-code” and “low-code” components. Using the Alpha TransForm no-code product, business users and developers can take full advantage of all the capabilities of the smartphone to turn any form into a mobile app in minutes, and power users can add advanced app functionality with Alpha TransForm's built-in programming language. IT developers can use the Alpha Anywhere low-code environment to develop complex web or mobile business apps from scratch, integrate data with existing systems of record and workflows (including data collected via Alpha TransForm), and add additional security or authentication requirements to protect corporate data.
