Richard Rabins

Alpha Anywhere LogoAlpha Anywhere's rapid mobile application development platform makes building and deploying web and mobile applications easy. In addition to providing built-in support for creating for iOS and Android apps using PhoneGap, apps built with Alpha Anywhere lets you build your app  once and deploy to mobile, web and desktop platforms. Custom mobile apps built with Alpha Anywhere also come with a vast array of built-in functionality that most enterprises require, including application security, data integration, and offline support. We've provided a summary below of these features and more.

Mobile App Security

Alpha's built-in security framework gives you all the tools you need to easily secure your sensitive data like SSL support, data encryption, a fully Integrated login/logout component and much more. Alpha is also tightly integrated with Apperian, enabling fine-tuned security and policy controls for each app without requiring code modifications or SDKs.Learn More about Mobile App Security.

Integration with Your Corporate Data

While Alpha Anywhere boasts its own built in database engine, you can also easily leverage a wide range of data sources including SQL, NoSQL, REST APIs, and web services. Native drivers are included for MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, and virtually all other popular SQL backends. Plus your application can be extended with Node.js, JavaScript libraries, .NET assemblies, and Amazon Web Services.Learn More about Data Integration With Alpha Anywhere.

Front-end and Back-end Tools Built-in

While most other solutions address either the front-end OR the back-end, Alpha Anywhere combines all required client AND server development features. Enterprise level reporting, geo-location tools, charting, scheduling, media handling, and responsive design are all built-in, easily added to your apps on the fly. Plus, you'll find sophisticated, native-like quick start mobile templates right out of the box! Learn More about Front-end and Back-end Tools Built-in.

Transactional Offline Mobile Support with Flexible Conflict Resolution Built In

Mobile business applications aren't truly mobile if they can't work offline, and, until now, organizations were faced with 3x the time and cost when adding offline functionality to an app. Alpha Anywhere features extensive, built-in, and customizable capabilities for building offline-capable mobile and web business apps in what Forrester Research calls a "robust solution for HTML5 implementations" — with virtually no incremental effort or cost!
