- 3. Drupal Mobility Straw Poll 1. Is mobility important to your clients or organization in conjunction with Drupal? 2. Is there ever a need for native mobile apps? What about Digital Experience Management? 3. Have you lost business to Adobe’s CQ5/Phonegap (or similar)? Or to another dev shop that offered integrated web and mobile services? – We certainly have. On multiple occasions. 4. If you could easily deliver Drupal-driven mobile apps, what would that be worth to you? – How to deal with the “fuller” stack developer problem?

- 16. Drupal + m2Serve Vs. Others m2Serve is visual, open, deeply integrated, supports more device categories and does not force a choice between hybrid versus native. Current solu3ons fall short: We solve: • Textual and not visual development (IBM, PhoneGap, Xamarin) • Visual: drag-‐and-‐drop development and deployment. • Template-‐based, not extensible (Appery) • Open: Fully customizable and extensible • Shallow enterprise integraDon (All) • Contextual: integraDon with enterprise back-‐end systems • No support beyond phones and tablets (All) • Pervasive: Support for devices beyond mobile phones and tablets • Only Hybrid/HTML5/CSS (IBM, PhoneGap, Appery) • Comprehensive: True naDve, hybrid, HTML5/CSS. 16
