The strategic advantage of Productivix universal web applications for barcode or OCR capture on computers and mobile devices
In an ever-changing digital ecosystem, web applications (or Progressive Web Apps - PWAs) represent an innovative solution that meets modern application development requirements. Unlike traditional native applications, PWAs run directly in the browser while offering a user experience comparable to that of an installed application. This hybrid approach combines the best aspects of the web and mobile applications while also working on desktop computers.
PWAs stand out for their ability to work offline, load quickly even on unstable connections, and adapt to all screen formats. These features perfectly meet the expectations of contemporary users who prioritise speed, reliability and fluidity of use. For businesses, this technology represents a strategic investment that optimises both development costs and customer experience.
The technology added by Productivix allows universal capture of barcodes emitted from various peripheral devices such as wired or wireless barcode readers, cameras, imagers, webcams, and therefore allows the same data entry application to be used on any type of hardware, whether fixed or mobile, recent or old (subject to testing and necessary functions).
| Reduction in development and hardware costs | Improved User Engagement |
|---|---|
| Developing a PWA requires a single code base for all hardware platforms, unlike native apps, which require separate code bases for iOS and Android. This unified approach can reduce development and maintenance costs by up to 60%, while significantly accelerating time to market. | Statistics show that PWAs significantly increase user engagement. Companies that have adopted this technology report an average 137% increase in conversion rates, a 52% reduction in bounce rates, and a 78% increase in time spent on their digital platform. |
| - Cross-platform development with a single set of code | - Loading times reduced by 2 to 3 times |
| - Simplified updates, no intervention required, faster without going through app stores | - Offline functionality improving accessibility |
| - Reduction in resources required for maintenance | - Ability to read barcodes using the camera (mobile or webcam) |
| - Can be used on any device with an internet browser: Windows 11, 10, 7 (to be tested), Apple MAC, Linux, tablets, smartphones: iOS, Android | - Our technology captures barcodes from external USB or Bluetooth scanners on computers or mobile devices and barcodes from imagers included in rugged Android devices |
The PWA approach adopted by Productivix, complemented by its technology, fits perfectly with this environmentally responsible strategic vision. It enables companies to develop high-performance mobile applications without the traditional constraints of app stores or hardware changes. This technology offers an optimal balance between accessibility, performance and cost. Companies can thus offer rich digital experiences that adapt to changing user behaviours and existing hardware, while maintaining complete control over distribution and updates.
PWA benefits for Productivix customers
Ultimately, universal mobile and fixed web applications represent not only a technological evolution, but also a paradigm shift in the way companies design their digital presence.
This approach combines the agility of web development with the functional richness of mobile and desktop applications and savings on IT hardware, offering a solution tailored to today’s digital challenges. For organisations looking to optimise their mobile and desktop strategy, ‘universal PWAs’ are now an essential option for effectively meeting user expectations while controlling IT costs.
