Mobile Application Development

We have now entered the second decade of the 21st century. The World Wide Web has been around for over 15 years. There are now robust, open-source website creation tools that allow anyone to create a website, even if they have no budget and don’t know HTML. Web hosting costs are negligible for even the smallest organization and trending further downward. The Internet is constantly becoming more accessible.

The proliferation of users due to increased accessibility combined with the emergence of social networking sites, powerful web applications and advances in mobile computing hardware, have changed computing forever. The Internet is no longer something one accesses from a desktop or laptop computer or even something one browses using a netbook at a Wi-Fi hotspot. It’s something that users are constantly connected to, carry with them wherever they go and rely on to get through their day.

The way people use the mobile web is fundamentally different. Mobile web development is not simply creating websites that look decent on a smaller screen. It’s about finding totally new ways for users to connect with each other, experience their favorite brands and be entertained.

iPhone
Android

Content Management Systems

Content management systems have the potential to revolutionize your organization’s web presence. They can streamline site updates, help your organization archive and categorize all of its content, control user access to all parts of the website and implement site-wide search capabilities.

A CMS provides numerous benefits:

It controls access to content based on the permission levels of your staff.
It allows organizations to maintain a public website as well as a private Intranet.
A CMS will allow your staff to more easily create RSS feeds, banners, polls, newsletters, forums and event calendars and integrate them into the website.
It gives non-technical staff the ability to update, maintain, archive and manage all of your organization’s content.
The leading open-source CMS’s provide robust site-wide search capabilities.

The CMS experts at Peak Systems can help you deploy most of the leading open-source content management systems (especially Joomla and WordPress), painlessly integrating them into your website in both design and functionality. Or, we can develop something from the ground up to meet your unique needs.
