What are the advantages of Cross Platform Mobile Development?

Cross Platform Mobile Development

Anderson Taylor proposes to utilize the Rho Mobile Framework as outlined below coupled with 10 years of knowledge of C# and Windows Programming along with their cross platform Xcode, Eclipse business logic to complete this project for both platforms.

The advantages to Rho Mobile and more information about the platform are detailed below:

Rho Mobile or Rhombus includes of the following elements, of which we will utilize the initial discovery phase to pick and choose the best from:

Rhodes, and RhoSync

Rhodes - Allows a single source development approach to deploy to Android and iPhone OS devices. Standards based solution to build native apps for all major smartphone operating systems (iPhone, Android, RIM, Windows Mobile and Windows Phone 7). The results are true native device applications (NOT mobile web apps) The final product will work with synchronized local data and take advantage of device capabilities such as GPS, PIM contacts and calendar, camera, native mapping, push, barcode, signature capture, Bluetooth and Near Field Communications (NFC).

RhoSync - Allows for faster and easier connection, data retrieval, parsing of responses, secure storage, data synchronization and supports push sync (This means that changes made to the backend application get immediately sent to the devices that need them).
