As many companies are moving to a remote location, corporate mobile solutions have become especially relevant. They help unite employees, automate routine tasks, quickly involve new specialists in their work, and implement those business-relevant functions that are not available in traditional applications.

What is an enterprise application?
It is a service which is used within one company to solve working questions with colleagues, clients and partners. Any custom functions can be implemented into it: personal cards, tools for analysis and reporting, document templates with autocompletion, library of corporate information for onboarding, etc. Such programs are ordered more often by large businesses, but they are also relevant for small organizations. For example, if you have many remote workers and/or have to process a lot of data.

Why do you need a corporate application?
Each organization selects the goals and functions of the service itself before starting the work. Let’s consider common requests for which an app is created:

Efficiency control

The mobile product can automate the setting of routine and one-time tasks, control their implementation and track statistics online, getting convenient reports on each direction and person. Additionally, you can set up forwarding of tasks during sick leave or vacation and reminders of overdue deadlines.

All workflows in one place

Often companies use multiple paid services at once for different tasks. People need more time to find the information they need or switch from one program to another. If a failure occurs at one site, they have to switch to another program immediately. And new people have to get used to different interfaces and remember where the right settings are. A single application with all the necessary parameters will simplify the work and help save the budget for paying for several third-party services at once.

Onboarding new professionals and training

The mobile service has a downloadable knowledge library with basic information about the business, rules, instructions, colleagues’ contacts, and training courses. It helps people get up to speed more quickly, even when working remotely.

Simplified document management

You can get certificates, pay slips, sick leave and vacations faster by sending a request online to the accounting and HR department. The process will be even faster if all documents come with the ability to auto-fill.

Transparent accounting.

Managers have access to the accounting accounts, transactions and calculations for each line of business and monthly financial reports.

Internal motivation system

The interface allows you to introduce gamification elements: encourage people for completed tasks on time and involvement in projects, receive feedback from colleagues, collect interesting ideas from different departments or create an internal currency with the store.

Privacy

Using messengers and third-party work tools, you run the risk of a data breach. In an in-house application, developers can reliably protect business secrets and personal information of employees.

Fast communication with customers

If you develop a separate CRM-application, it will help accelerate communication with partners, keep all the necessary information in one place, and monitor the statistics and receive feedback on the quality of service.
