Global Developers Share Their Views on the Mobile Market in the Mobile Development Survey 2010

Research and Markets announced the addition of the "Mobile Development Survey 2010, v1" report to their offering. This survey captures a transitional period, where there is great expansion of new delivery channels and shifting developer focus on new platforms. Previously titled the Wireless Development Survey, this report will now be referred to as the Mobile Development Survey which better describes the intent of the research and analysis.This is the 20th volume of our Mobile Development Survey series, the most comprehensive existing research series focusing exclusively on mobile development. This detailed report consists of extensive in-depth interviews with 385+ developers worldwide active in mobile development. Includes sections on mobile platforms, device development and deployment, app stores and the business of mobile development, adoption of content formats and technologies, types of apps being developed, porting between platforms, location and map based development, as well as issues and requirements important to mobile developers. Collaboration tools, followed by enterprise instant messaging, and logistical tools were cited by global developers as the most important enterprise applications for mobile devices according to Evans Data's newly released Mobile Development Survey, 2010. Mobile developers saw these as much more important than social networking tools and blogging features.

"With the emergence of new mobile platforms, the proliferation of more complex mobile devices in the workplace and the rapid growth of mobile applications, the enterprise is under pressure to support the business benefits of mobility directly." said Janel Garvin, CEO of Evans Data. "Mobile platforms are already much more than just an adjunct in the enterprise development arena." The Mobile Development Survey 2010 is the latest release from Evans Data's mobile series in which global developers share their views on the mobile market. This worldwide survey of over 400 mobile developers is published twice a year. Read the abstract or order this report via the Research and Markets portal
