Do You Understand The Difference Between Apps and Mobile Websites?
23 August, 2011 at 3:30 pm Tim Roberts ARTS Australia Leave a comment
Drew McManus provides a good overview on the Adaptistration blog of the difference between apps and a mobile website in Understanding The Difference Between Apps and Mobile Websites
Included is a neat summary of the pros and cons of the two approaches which he describes in very accessible terms:
“apps function separately from your existing website and a mobile website is a variation of your existing website.“
Drew does sneak in a little plug for the Venture Platform which they describe as a mobile ready architecture, but I think we can excuse him that for such useful information.
For arts and entertainment organisations the big question to consider is Does your organisation wish to facilitate customer transactions i.e. sell tickets etc.?
This question is addressed in a FULL HOUSES post from last year.
Which way are you leaning – Mobile Web or an App?
