Web App or Desktop App?

You've identified that you need a custom-built application to help your business run. There are 2 main paths to go down: a web application or a desktop application.

Traditionally, software houses would build desktop applications to suit your needs and these worked fine but came with some drawbacks:

• Required to be deployed on all users' machines
• May require additional servers for backend
• Updates require time and internal resources to complete
• Existing systems need to be compatible
• Can only be accessed when using company equipment

It's 2022, companies are shifting away from traditional desktop applications and towards web-based applications. There are an extensive number of reasons for this trend. Reasons you may be interested in are:

• Accessible from anywhere
• Quicker development time
• No on-premise hardware required
• Cheaper to develop
• Easier to maintain
