Mobile Application Performance

Mobile Application Performance

Millions of customers, thousands of devices, several networks and one experience

One of the biggest challenges in the mobile market today is ensuring a satisfying end user experience for your mobile applications on hundreds of different mobile handsets operating over the complex operator network.

On the Web if your application has been tested on two browsers and two or three operating systems, you know that well over 90 percent of your target audience will be able see and access the content. In the mobile market, you deal with thousands mobile devices with varying screen sizes and capabilities, operating systems and browsers. Content that looks great on one device may look odd or even unreadable on another.

How do you today ensure that your mobile content works consistently on the different devices, which are popular in Europe, Asia, and America? And how do you know what is “good” performance for your application?
