- The LongRange mobile app builder is based on two fundamental principles: The mobile app development and maintenance process must have a short Time-to-Market and a justifiable Total-Cost-of-Ownership – both vitally important to IBM i development sites constrained by restricted budgets, “never enough” time and ever-present resource limitations.
- Use your existing development tools – with your RPG, COBOL or CL expertise and the LongRange mobile app builder you can deliver mobile apps to a user community quickly, and you can maintain and extend them with a minimum of time and cost.
- LongRange is a native mobile app, like Twitter, Skype and Salesforce, downloaded from the appropriate App store; it executes as a native app should – very fast and with rock solid reliability. It’s not a web app that runs on the server and it doesn’t rely on a web browser to deliver information to a mobile device. It does not rely on HTML, CSS and JavaScript like a hybrid app.
- Focused entirely on IBM i (System i, iSeries, AS/400) developers – the LongRange mobile app builder enables you to build and maintain stylish, modern and business focused mobile application solutions without needing to acquire a whole new set of additional skills like HTML5, CSS3, PHP, JavaScript, Java or Objective-C.
