The challenge

• Distributing content across a wide range of today’s devices and platforms is extremely difficult.
• Each device has special requirements regarding design, usability, updating, etc.
• Offline availability of content still a major issue for end users
• Content creation/maintenance often difficult, especially due to large number of sources
• Few systems available that consistently provide for multilingual content
• Multilingual systems often associated with content and textual losses
• Hybrid apps are often unattractive in UI design because of technology focus
• Systems are mostly too focused on web or apps, rarely in the mix and almost never on software
