RhoLogic is First Smartphone App to Work Against Dynamically Changing Enterprise App Metadata
RhoLogic, a division of Logic Appeal, a leading integrator of SugarCRM and SAP BusinessOne software, today announced the availability of RhoLogic Mobile for SugarCRM at the iTunes App Store and Android Market. The application was built using Rhodes, the industry’s first open-source smartphone app framework for rapidly building native applications for every major device (iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows Mobile, Symbian).
RhoLogic Mobile is also the world’s first CRM app to work against customized and changing underlying database schema.
RhoLogic Mobile allows mobile workers to access and manage their SugarCRM data anywhere and anytime, with or without Internet access or cellular connection. RhoLogic Mobile provides offline access to information and near real-time data updates when a network is available. Automatic synchronization ensures that any changes made via the smartphone are applied to the SugarCRM backend application.
The application is available for free and can be downloaded by searching "RhoLogic" at the iTunes App Store or the Android Market.
"Unlike standard out-of-the-box CRM smartphone applications, RhoLogic Mobile for SugarCRM provides businesses with the only truly usable way for taking their live SugarCRM data to their mobile workforce," said Chris Hall, CEO of Logic Appeal. "Rhomobile’s Rhodes enables a native smartphone application that operates without the delays inherent to browser-based apps. Due to its support for changing metadata such as to the layout or language fields, changes are immediately reflected in the mobile application, ensuring complete consistency between the SugarCRM backend web application and the mobile application." Any changes thus made to the SugarCRM record structure on the backend web application (e.g., additional fields) are reflected in the UI of the smartphone application without changing the application structure itself, or requiring actions from the end-user.
RhoLogic Mobile is suitable for companies of all sizes and can be integrated into existing SugarCRM applications, allowing businesses to access and manage their own SugarCRM data in a way that is most meaningful and relevant to them. RhoLogic Mobile works with all editions of SugarCRM (including SugarCE) from version 5.5.1 and up.
