Building for a Multi-Channel Mobile World
Because of device fragmentation and proliferation, development is often the most resource intensive and costly part of the mobile lifecycle.
You are not developing just native apps any more; you need to consider HTML5 apps, hybrid apps, and web apps. And you need to build these apps not just for smartphones, but also tablets, IP-TVs, kiosks and even feature phones. Up to this point, building apps and sites for a multi-channel mobile world means greater costs, complexity and time to market.
Up until now a myriad of developers with deep and specialized skill sets have been required. Additionally, app refreshes and support for new devices typically demand significant technical resource for rewriting of the existing app.

Build with AMPchroma™
Some development tools claim a write-once-run-anywhere approach. However, these tools are often “Jack-of-all trades, and master of none”—leaving you with apps and sites that run across multiple devices, but that don’t look compelling on any one of them. With AMPchroma, you have purpose-built tools to easily create rich content apps, complex business process automation apps, and every kind of app in between.
AMPchroma lets you choose your weapon: native, web or HTML5, it’s your choice. Development can be done using a no-code WYSIWYG editor in AMP Builder or with an Eclipse-based tool in AMP Studio using HTML extensions. All apps are built to run across multiple device platforms and can leverage an extensive library of AMP UI controls or third-party UI control libraries. Building on AMPchroma provides you with the most powerful and flexible tools to do the job right, and at a lower cost.
