Gartner Recognizes i-exceed as an MADP Provider and Key Vendor in Adjacent Markets
Chennai – February 25, 2016: The year 2016 has started off on a good note with i-exceed’s Appzillon being recognized as one of the MADP providers and key vendors in adjacent market in Gartner’s global MADP report for 2016.
With demand for mobile apps outweighing internal IT team’s delivery capacities by a large margin, RMADs are quickly gaining prominence as swift enablers of digital initiatives for an enterprise. Gartner recommends that enterprises ought to:
1. Adopt a bimodal approach to mobile app development to capture digital opportunities in an agile manner, while also setting up and maintaining a solid back-end infrastructure to support scalability.
2. Focus enterprise IT on the integration layer and production of APIs. The front-end mobile app development should be shared with lines of business (LOBs) as well as third parties that have expertise in UX and user interface development efforts.
The report also highlights that usability is an important factor, if not the most important one, for the success of all mobile apps. For such use cases, customers prefer MADPs and RMADs that enable rich content creation and engaging experiences.
However, no two organizations have the same approach to mobile app development, nor the same feature requirements or priorities, so selection of a mobile app development framework or toolchain will vary depending on each company's app development strategy.
For the report Gartner evaluated 160 MADP Providers and key vendors in adjacent markets in the MADP, RMAD, and MBaaS space. On being featured as the only Indian vendor in the RMAD space, Mr. Joseph John, Managing Director at i-exceed commented, “When we conceptualized Appzillon, we wanted a tool that would enable enterprises to achieve their digital objectives in the shortest possible time with as minimal effort as possible. In the past year, based on our learnings we have released a newer version of Appzillon, taking into consideration the latest of what technology has to offer coupled with a deeper understanding of what customers need. The result has been astonishing so far and we believe that the mention in Gartner's report is proof of this."
