Website vs Mobile App, what is best for me?

Tags: Mobile, Smartphones, Web development

I am working as a web analyst at ……., working on their website. As I also advised the team that you should also create a mobile app as it facilitates more users. But they refuse the idea that it wouldn’t work because it is already working best on the website. Kindly give me advice on what I am saying is right or wrong. If I am saying right then tell me tricks that how can I convince them

If you need a trick to be convincing, you’re probably wrong. And as a web analist, you should be able to answer the question, in stead of asking it.

My view: an app is useful if you want a permanent relationship with the users. But I can’t imagine that needing a name for a new product is a recurring event, so very few people would take the trouble to install an app for it if it can be done on a website. So I think you’re wrong

No more apps?

At this point we have app overload. I use the company website over the apps. Seems these companies are being “sold” they need apps.
The app I use the most on the phone is text, call, web browser and banking.

Are you a bank?
