Rich Internet Apps

Rich Internet Applications (RIA) offers the potential to radically enhance online user experiences and dramatically increase online conversion, retention and overall satisfaction. We understand the key differentiating factors between systems that simply visualize or present to ones that possess functionality to interact and manipulate data. We develop systems which will have the benefits of distributed, server-based Internet applications with the rich interface and interaction capabilities of desktop applications.

Over the years our RIA Team has developed several applications that have significantly improved overall customer satisfaction. Key areas where have provided

Our expertise is applications that:

• Require significant interactivity or complexity
• Support high-volume transactions
• Require multi-step task-based activities
• Need to display multiple media types
• Embedded in a single user-interface
• Require real-time response, such as instant messaging or real-time information
  updates

Methodology

In RIA development it is important to understand where the "bells and whistles" of design end and the dynamics of user experience begin. It is important to apply certain thumb rules while developing RIAs. By using cutting edge technology like Adobe Flash ActionScript 3, Ajax and Silverlight, we develop applications using that:

• Keep users informed
Use rich display capabilities to provide real-time status indicators whenever
background processing requires the user to wait.
• User Control and Freedom
  Users often choose system functions by mistake and will need a clearly marked
   "emergency exit" to leave the unwanted state without having to go through an extended dialogue. Support undo and redo.
• Consistency and Standards
  All applications require consistency within their features, including terminology, layout,  color, and behaviour. Complying with interface standards can help maintain consistency.
• Recognition rather than recall
  Make objects, actions, and options visible. The user should not have to remember
  information from one part of the dialogue to another. Instructions for use of the system should be visible or easily retrievable whenever appropriate.
