MOBILE APP
OR A WEB APP?

THAT REALLY DEPENDS
ON YOUR USER BASE

GOING TO BE
USING IT ON THE GO
OR IN THEIR BED
OR WHEREVER
THEY'RE AT
THROUGHOUT THE DAY,
AND YOU WANT
THEM TO BE ABLE
TO ACCESS IT
ON THEIR PHONE.
SO PHONE APP
OR A MOBILE APP
IS GOING TO BE
YOUR CHOICE.
YOU'RE BUILDING
BUSINESS SOFTWARE
AND YOU'RE BUILDING,
SAY, MAYBE
PAYROLL SOFTWARE
OR HR MANAGEMENT
OR SOMETHING

A WEB APP

CAN VISIT IT
IN THE BROWSER
CURRENTLY DOING
THEIR WORK
ON THEIR
LAPTOP OR DESKTOP
