Native vs cross-platform: cost and lifespan compared

For form-driven business apps, cross-platform usually wins on total cost. For hardware-heavy, background-processing or performance-critical apps, native usually wins on everything that matters.

Ergebnisse

  • One codebase halves build and QA for typical business apps
  • Native still leads for camera-heavy, BLE and background work
  • Maintenance cost, not build cost, decides over five years
  • OS releases arrive annually regardless of your roadmap
  • Choose per app, not as a company standard

Yes, and some products do exactly that for one platform once volume justifies it.
