3. the mobile marketplace
• Mobile devices
– Lighter, faster and cheaper tablet and Smartphone devices
overtaking laptop sales
– Business adoption has been rapid, 28M+ iPad devices sold in
>18 months. “Apple is targeting adoption, not trials”
– Content Management on the tablet is critical to optimise the
user experience
• Expect Growth - Apple iPad just the start
– Android & Kindle devices developing market share
– Security is key. A native app prevents users from external
access, locking your content to only authorised users
– Focused and structured content is the name of the game on
tablets and smartphones, not the sprawling web experience

5. the browser marketplace
• Browsers are still needed, and widely used
– worldflow Connect treats a browser as another platform
– The user experience via the browser platform is optimised to
provide just the content when and how they need it
– The content is secured inside the browser. The users still can’t
get to and manipulate the data, the content is locked down
• Cut the Sprawl
– The current web sites available to view content are generally
cluttered, and finding things is difficult, or they are empty.
– Using Connect the user has a tailored focused experience, that
they can customise but can instantly switch back to full content
– Searching works, it is effective and search criteria pre-set so the
user doesn’t have to “know” what they are looking for

6. why worldflow Connect?
• Tablet / Smartphone is a different content paradigm from web sites
• Too often providers of App’s just slap an HTML5 front-end on an
existing web site – this is missing the point of the mobile device.
• To move to a mobile content paradigm, the content should be
flexible, and fully centrally controlled.
• The provider should have full control over what an individual, group
or full set of end-users can see via the server controls
• The end-user should not need a new application download to
change content. It should be dynamically driven from the server.
• Each end-user should not need to know multiple password, for
multiple data sources, but the server should consolidate it.
• The end-user should be able to fully select any form of content
within his allowable set of content, so it can be tailored for their
existing interest, and changed quickly to meet a new interest
