5 benefits of a business app
When companies think about developing their own app, they usually see it as an opportunity to create a customer-oriented app in order to help them improve their service. Nowadays, smartphones have become an integral part of our lives. With this type of an asset at their disposal, customers have unrestricted access to a company’s service at all times.
However, having an internal business app is just as important, because it improves internal communication in your company and streamlines your business processes. SPIE Netherlands gave us the opportunity to develop a business app for them. Our collaboration with SPIE was a huge success, which resulted in more than 1,000 downloads of the app within a week of its launch.
A business app offers a smart and efficient way to run your business. Does your company still not own a business app? Below, you can read more about the benefits of having a customized app for your company.
Internal communication
A customized business app supports internal communication and connects the employers with the employees. This way, your employees have all contact information right at their fingertips. It allows you to send personal notifications, share the latest news within your organization, advertise vacancies and much more. In short, an internal business app increases the engagement of your employees.
Fast, effective and always at your fingertips
One of the obvious advantages of a mobile app is precisely that - mobility.
Work methods are changing and companies need to continue to adapt, which requires increased flexibility. This compels organizations to look for new ways to get employees to do their job as efficiently as possible: on any device, at any moment, in the office, on the road as well as at home. An enterprise app is the solution. With the enterprise app, your employees always have access to essential and up-to-date information.
Extend the scope with integrations
Most companies use many different types of software. The same probably applies to your company as well. With a well-functioning app, you want all the company-related information to be accessible from a single location. Through integration with the company's existing systems, all the content is consolidated. So there is no need to waste time by duplicating content in multiple locations. The employees can find all the information they need in one centralized location. This ensures a higher productivity rate.
Security
Improve safety in the workplace by using safety features. Create forms, show emergency phone numbers and support safety with an LMRA checklist. This ensures that the staff always have access to the critical policies and important guidelines, thus reducing the possibility of dangerous and expensive incidents. In addition to keeping your employees connected, the app also supports safety on the work floor.
Branding
Internal brand awareness is just as important as external brand awareness. After all, you want the employees to think along in the interest of your organization. The company app is adapted to match the look and feel of your organization. This ensures the optimal experience among the staff. Furthermore, listening to the employees is important, and by using the feedback forms, you know exactly what your staff needs. This way the app stays user friendly and up-to-date.
