Case Study: University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee achieves 80% mobile development cost savings with Appcelerator Titanium

University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee cuts mobile development costs by 80% with Appcelerator

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) needed to build a full-featured mobile app for both iPhone and Android without having to develop two separate applications. Their challenge was to find a simultaneous multi-platform approach that could integrate with existing systems like PeopleSoft while leveraging their current JavaScript and back-end investments.

UWM chose Appcelerator Titanium to build its student mobile app. The solution allowed them to reuse 97% of their code across iOS and Android, which cut development costs by roughly 80%. The successfully launched UWM Mobile app exceeded 5,000 downloads in its first two weeks and led the university to plan a new mobile development course centered on Appcelerator's technology.
