A web application is a computer program that utilizes web browsers and web technology to perform various tasks over the Internet. Web applications use a combination of server-side scripts (PHP and ASP) to handle the storage and retrieval of information, and client-side scripts (JavaScript and HTML) to present this information to users. This facilitates users to interact with the company using online forms, content management systems, shopping carts and more. The applications also allow employees to create documents, share information, collaborate on projects, and work on common documents regardless of location or device.
BENEFITS OF WEB APPLICATIONS
- They run on multiple platforms regardless of the operating system or device as long as the browser is compatible.
- The business goals of the client are taken into consideration.
- All users have access to the same version, eliminating any compatibility issues.
- Since they are not installed on the hard drive, there is no need to worry about space limitations.
- In subscription-based web applications (SaaS), software piracy can be reduced to a great extent.
- The cost is relatively low for both the business and the end-users as maintenance and support required is minimal.
