Abstract:

Mobile Applications are becoming the "face of the business". Competition in the mobile application space is fierce. Mobile developers are under strong pressure to get a solution into the market first. However, with the immediate feedback channels available to users, rushing an unsatisfactory app into the market can lead to poor reviews that mark the app for life. Mobile apps just have to work and deliver value or they quickly get deleted. When a user is upset, you want to know. When your app crashes, you need the data. What if you could get immediate feedback when a user simply shakes a device running your app? What if you could get crash logs from your mobile app wherever it is running? What if you could get immediate sentiment analysis from users "in the wild?" Come to this session to hear about IBM's point-of-view for best practices to achieve mobile app quality.
