Webalo Mobile Dashboard: on demand access to enterprise data

The Webalo Mobile Dashboard makes it easy and fast to extend enterprise applications and data for use on handheld devices. The Webalo Mobile Dashboard eliminates the reliance on costly, time-consuming, and labor-intensive custom programming that is traditionally associated with the creation of mobile versions of enterprise applications, and it eliminates dependence on proprietary mobile programs that can access only a single vendor's own enterprise resources.

The hosted or appliance-based Webalo Mobile Dashboard lets companies create - in hours - mobile access to the essential tasks that employees - from CEOs to field service reps - want to perform in any application.

In place of the traditional software development kit approach, the Mobile Dashboard uses a browser-based, wizard-style interface. This point-and-click methodology lets IT or line-of-business staff specify which applications, data, and procedures to make available for mobile interaction, and Webalo's technology then automatically translates the input, creates the appropriate user interface for the wireless smartphones most commonly used by corporate employees, and instantly deploys the applications and content to authorized users.

After the configuration is complete, modifications can be made in minutes and deployed instantly to virtually any brand and model of device. Mobile users can then perform - on their smartphones - the same essential tasks they perform on a desktop or laptop computer.

For example, a major national jewelry chain uses Webalo to provide regional executives with on-demand, on-the-spot decision support when they're in their stores. Delays associated with finding a WiFi connection for a laptop or waiting until returning to the office to access key performance indicators has been completely eliminated.
