SmartUX 6.0 delivers the ultimate in high-productivity and high-control, enabling citizen and pro developers with the fastest and easiest solution to design, deploy and manage an enterprise app portfolio at scale

SAN FRANCISCO, February 7, 2018 /PRWeb/ — PowWow Mobile, the leader in enabling enterprises to simplify and extend business apps to mobile, today announced the general availability of version 6.0 of its industry leading solution, SmartUX. The new platform enhancements deliver the ultimate in high-productivity and high-control, enabling citizen and pro developers with the fastest and easiest solution to design, deploy and manage an enterprise app portfolio at scale.

SmartUX 6.0 addresses two major challenges enterprises face with scaling their mobile app strategy: the scarcity of skilled resources needed to build and maintain cross-platform mobile apps and the rate at which these apps are deployed to meet demand, stay competitive and drive broader digital transformation objectives.

The latest release from PowWow extends the platform’s powerful application modernization and mobilization capabilities by further simplifying the entire enterprise app development lifecycle, enabling both IT and lines of business to deliver net-new apps at unprecedented scale.

SmartUX 6.0 introduces four capabilities that dramatically decreases the time and resources required to design, deploy and manage next-generation omni-channel experiences:

  • Enable Citizen Developers with Extended Drag-and-Drop Capabilities
    • Create visual workflows and easiest-to-use data integration for unifying multiple data sources and workflows into a single Mashup app with SmartUX Connect.
    • Easily extract data, logic and workflows from any web, Windows, Java, custom-built application, or Mainframe application with or without available APIs using SmartUX Explorer.
    • Integration with latest release of Angular 4 and Ionic 3, bringing an unprecedented level of control for building hybrid apps with best-in-class UI.
  • Expanded Library of Smart App Templates
    • Jump start app projects with new pre-built micro-app templates: People Finder, QuickApprove and Time Cards for mobilizing common enterprise workflows.
    • Over one hundred new universal templates for acceleration of building common screens such as login, list view, etc.
    • Extensive library of custom components to easily construct consumer-grade apps with the ability to add custom code when needed.
  • Enhanced Enterprise Security & Control
    • One-click app publishing with support for leading enterprise mobility management solutions such as VMware AirWatch and Blackberry Dynamics through drag-and-drop SDK implementation.
    • Secure apps from the start with pre-integrated security and identity at the app design level within SmartUX Studio. o Easily enforce corporate standards for everything from UI to app security with SmartUX Dashboard.
  • Support for Next-Generation Experiences
    • Integration with APIs from any existing enterprise iPaaS and PaaS systems such as Dell Boomi, Mulesoft or customer internal systems.
    • Extensible connector framework to easily integrate with third-party cognitive services for voice-based assistants such as Alexa, Google or Cortana and conversational applications with chatbots.
    • Support for app security through facial recognition and voice authentication and intelligent notifications that inform users of actions to take based upon location, time, or day.

“The need to modernize legacy systems as well as design and build new custom apps at scale is driving our digital transformation initiatives,” said Ben Webb, Director of IT Platform Solutions at Flex. “With PowWow, Flex was able to standardize on one platform, centrally managed by corporate IT but used by citizen developers across our organization. The new capabilities with SmartUX 6.0 have further accelerated our app delivery initiatives, providing us with a full-service platform for rapidly scaling our mobile app portfolio.”

“SmartUX 6.0 is a break through release for us, our customers and partners,” said Jonathan Kaplan, co-founder and chief technology officer, PowWow Mobile. “Enterprise mobile app development has typically required technical skills that are not in abundance within many organizations, resulting in massive app backlogs. This latest release even further simplifies the app development process by empowering citizen developers with the right tools to create apps and digitize workflows, enabling organizations to accelerate and scale their app portfolio far faster than ever before.”

PowWow Mobile disrupts the speed, complexity and economics commonly associated with delivering productivity-enhancing apps to an increasingly mobile-first workforce. The PowWow SmartUX Platform simplifies and extends business apps to mobile, delivering modern omni-channel experiences that transform how work is done in the digital era. With SmartUX, users can easily connect to any application or data source and rapidly design and deploy personalized, intelligent and secure apps that run anywhere, on any device (PC, laptop, tablet, phone or watch), and any OS (iOS, Android, Windows 10 or HTML5).
