We have built a lot of apps recently in Adobe Air. Clients love desktop apps, and personally so do I, and I like them for the following reasons:
- A desktop client allows you to receive alerts even if you do not have a browser open
- There is a different experience to using a browser
- You can work on them off line – using Adobe Air’s built in SQL lite database
- People are more familiar with desktop apps
Adobe Air makes it so easy to create desktop apps that run on Windows, Linux and Mac that anyone can build them. Having a desktop client gives clients the flexibility to choose the medium that makes sense to them.
Check out some of the showcase applications listed on the adobe site, there are some great ones on there.
