BlackBerry® Mobile Apps Development

The BlackBerry® mobile line of devices is a line of Smart Phone and mobile email devices designed by Research in Motion. The first BlackBerry® product was released in 1996. Since that time, the manufacturer has expanded its line beyond the PDA concept to incorporate Smart Phone features for music and video playback, and camera and video functionality. The BlackBerry® devices include internet faxing, web browsing and other wireless services, as well as multi–lingual messaging, auto–text with auto–correct and other text features like shortcuts, FaceBook and other social networking updates via push technology, as well as support for Google Messenger, ICQ, Windows Live Messenger, and eBay. While most users think of Black Berry as a messaging device, the newest BlackBerry® models incorporate other Smart Phone technology and the manufacturer is expanding its reach to compete with other popular Smart Phone devices like the iPhone.

The BlackBerry® device is favored by many users because of its long battery life. The BlackBerry® Internet Service (BIS) is a useful tool in providing swift transfer of data and provides data transfer in about one third of the time of other devices, making it a good

choice for the business person who must send and receive messages and information quickly and frequently. The newest models incorporate full touch screen functionality and require no keyboard. System navigation is performed by using a scroll function on the side of the device. The GSM BlackBerry® device utilizes ARM 7, ARM 9 and ARM 11 processors and some models support Intel PXA930. The Smart Phone models utilize QualComm MSM6x00 chips.

Research in Motion (RIM) provides a proprietary environment which enables wireless synchronization with Lotus Domino email, Lotus Notes, Novell GroupWise, and with Microsoft Exchange Server. For the individual user, this mail service technology is sufficient. Most businesses utilize an enterprise mail server to ensure security and support business volume and communication. RIM allows third party development of applications using proprietary APIs. Third party development is supported, and developers can obtain a digital signature to ensure that ensures their software will run on the RIM device, this process does not include any environmental testing to ensure quality or app security.

The BlackBerry® “trilateration” process enables device location to provide a GPS type functionality. This feature allows the user to leverage location–specific applications more quickly and with less battery use than a traditional GPS application. Other features that are popular with users include simple update of contacts and profiles, the ability to create groups, bar code scanning functionality and third party applications that enable customer relationship management (CRM) and data base management (DBM) to manage complex, large data volume.

BlackBerry® Applications can satisfy many Smart Phone needs, especially for the business user who requires a rich feature set that includes the capacity to message, email and collaborate. The opportunities for custom app development include audio and video streaming on mobile platforms, mobile interfaces for enterprise applications, content management system (CMS) interfaces for mobile devices, and GPS type applications. These application interfaces can be designed as platform and device independent to suit multiple mobile devices. Mobile application development can also satisfy requirements for online and offline synchronization of data and integration of enterprise data sources and web services.

“The Elegant MicroWeb redesign of our site has really helped our sales.

“ElegantJ Business Intelligence played a pivotal role helping my team tap into the huge amount of timekeeping data our firm had assiduously collected over several years, but which we had extracted very little value from. We realised that with ElegantJ BI we could gain an insight into our business performance and trends which we were then able to present to Management in a digestible form. As a direct result of our analysis using ElegantJ BI we were able to ensure that scarce resources were ring-fenced for critical operations whilst also freeing up resource from other areas to improve productivity and allocate costs more accurately across our operations. ElegantJ BI proved an excellent partner, listening to and taking our feedback on-board, then delivering changes and improvements to the product.”
