Web Application


Being present in the current information age means being up-to-date with ongoing market trends. Apps are everywhere. From smart fridges all the way to the watches consumers wear. Having a web presence  in today’s competitive marketplace also requires an application. One type of application is the web based application. That is when an application runs off a web server instead of the user’s device. Web based applications are easily updated and maintained. Think about the Google Docs suite or your email server. You can edit and exchange data, meaning the content is dynamic and different depending on how the user chooses to manipulate it.  This allows for diverse development. A large number of developers are well-versed in these languages. Thus allowing for the ability to zero in on what your specific web based application needs. Web application design is also important.

JavaScript, HTML, and CSS are the common coding languages used for web apps. Also, these applications are accessible through popular browsers (think Chrome or Safari). It is commonplace for a consumer to look online for a specific service or product they need. The internet provides a vast array of options for them to choose from. Getting your business there is the first step to ensuring your share of these browsers’ reach.  Imagine running a food delivery service and wanting to give your consumers the ability to order entirely online. A web application can do that. Not only can it do that, through good SEO, your application can show up ahead of the competition in your area. This, with added 24/7 accessibility for users, makes web based applications a great choice for your business.

Custom Web Application solutions for streamlining productivity

Here at Twelfth Dream, we build exciting applications and web-based administration tools. Custom solutions are important as every business has different needs. Simplifying the work process and enhancing production are perks of our software development. They can also be used to give businesses an edge over their competitors. Creating applications on the web has become more accessible than ever. This also means the market has become more competitive than ever. Our philosophy is that having a comprehensive team with vast knowledge is a key pillar to success in this landscape. With a strong team of experienced developers, we have shaped a mobile app development company that develops web applications that can be easily adapted to mobile applications based on client preference.

One step of our process in developing a web application is reviewing off-shelf products. After all, efficiency is key here. This allows us to put forth the best path possible. A path that is informed by the already existing technology and advancements. Customizability has become a key feature for many app developers in the market. Web applications can be tailored to the customer’s needs without needing to build a new software. Let’s say a software you use currently is not yielding the results you know your business can achieve. This could be a work flow problem or a communication inefficiency. There are a host of problems businesses face when using one-size-fits-all software. Just as well, there is the moto of building the right foundation. When you guide the development process from the start, the software can be better tailored to your needs.

Benefits of web applications

They are fully accessible from any device. Browsers have come a long way from being only available on home computers. Now, users can access web browsers through almost any device. Chrome for example, can share your history and browsing activity across your phone, computer, and tablet. Ultimately, a factor that can draw users to your business is the convenience of interacting with it. They are also secure, and remote in terms of user access to the backend. Web applications are hosted on a server and not the user’s device. This allows for easier updates and maintenance. So, the security of the app is much easier to manage. Besides, it gives you more control over the app itself.

Web applications remove much of the administrative headaches associated with growing your business. They can help automate tasks that used to be manual. They can bring forth easier task assignments within your organization. That is right. Web applications are not always meant for sales alone. Sometimes they are necessary for improving internal affairs and work flow within your business. They can help boost communication efficiency and task management. While most businesses follow a template, no two businesses are exactly alike. Another feature of our development process is presenting you with tangible updates and prototypes. We follow the Agile SCRUM framework. Basically, this keeps you in the loop and allows for minimal miscommunication between your business and our team.

Work from anywhere, anytime.

As mentioned earlier, web based applications can be used internally as well. Web applications can be accessed from any device that is connected to the internet. With more and more employees working from home, this means all your files are readily available and easily accessible from anywhere. We experienced it firsthand here in Vancouver, where our employees has to work from home through the pandemic. Since web applications are accessible on any device and any platform, it kept us soldiering through. Therefore, enhanced productivity and accessibility for your work flow can be another reason for getting a web app. Users receive the same great experience whether they’re using a computer, tablet, or mobile device.

Since you would know best about what works for you. We at Twelfth Dream help you along the process and provide our extensive experience to go with it. Combining your concerns with our expertise, the process should be a breeze. Another concern is future-proofing the business. Apps are unavoidable in today’s marketplace. An accessible web application design matters. The same applies to the workplace. By creating your custom web app, you can get ahead of the competition by maximizing workflow and communication.

With Web Applications there is no download necessary.

With a web application, there is no need to download, install, update, or manage software. Web applications are accessible through any browser, and run on the web server. Meaning, it is always up to date and accessible. No more installations and configurations on every workstation or laptop, either. Setting up new employees is as simple as adding new users and providing them with their own credentials. Thus the integration process becomes efficient and effective. In today’s rapidly expanding market, this is a must. Improved efficiency can be just what a business needs to exceed its competitors. There is also the prospect of work from home looking to become even more of a normality after the pandemic. More and more tech companies are allowing their employees to work from home regardless of mandates.

Web applications allow access to the software on the go.  Smooth web application design is important to achieve this. Thus keeping productivity high as employees can get the work done anytime and anywhere. There is also the concern of equipment. Web apps run from servers and are not downloaded onto a device. This means all your workers would need is a good internet connection. This allows for more flexible hours and better work flow.

Is a Web Application the right choice for you?

There are many types of applications. Deciding which one is right for you, is not a light decision. However, apart from the app type, the application marketing strategies are a vital element for apps’ success. Here at Twelfth Dream, we have seen it all and developed it all. Team As A Service(TAAS) will consider your needs and budgetary/time constraints to present the best option. Accordingly, you will find a few things you can consider before deciding on the app type.

  • Do you want to collect customer information and tailor relevant information to their needs?
  • Do you want to provide your customers with enhanced and personalized experiences?
  • Does your userbase need to enter the same information each time they perform a transaction, such as making a purchase?
  • Do you demonstrate some information only privately?

Alternatively, you can always rely on the advise of experts. While information is available online, it never hurts to get a second opinion. The discovery call is an important part of that. On the call, we will discuss the many aspects of the project that will guide us along the way. This could include, concerns, needs, budget, time, and many other factors. At Twelfth Dream, we have worked with a myriad of businesses here in Vancouver and elsewhere. The results speak for themselves. You can read about some of our previous projects. Let us explore your strategy with you. Book a discovery call today!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a web application or mobile app?

By default, users are reluctant to install new apps onto their devices unless they see a value. This makes web applications a good starting point, before considering expanding to a mobile app. َAnother factor is the cost and maintenance of a mobile app. There is also the concern with the updates and approvals from the respective app stores. The bottom line is that every project has different needs. Web application design can also vary from project to project. The decision should be made after careful consideration.

Considering those variables is paramount. However, here are some things you may want to consider to inform your decision:

  • Do your users use your service on the go?
  • Where does most of your web traffic come from – is it from mobile, tablets, or computers?
