I’s annoying but can probably be suppressed.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I think the four main reasons for at least considering a desktop product are:</P><OL><LI>Speed/general performance: This one is more important that you think,&nbsp;most research lists 100ms in latancy as the limit for what the user experience as an instant reaction to input.</LI><LI>Evolution of browsers: They do change from time to time. New mouse/keyboard shortcuts are going to be implemented and change how we interact with them and it will impact the FormIt experience.</LI><LI>Corporate policy: Most companies have some kind of policy regarding what programs and browsers that are allowed on a computer, my former work-place had a web-based system for weekly reports and it didn’t work on anything later than IE7. It swings both ways I guess. In some places it is probably easier to approve and install a desktop product than change a browser that impacts other systems, but if you have the right browser version - firing up a web-page is a lot easier.</LI><LI>Internet dependency: Although I heard FormIt works without an internet connection after it has been buffered - can it even be started without one? I travel a lot by train from Stockholm to our different offices and there are a lot of tunnels the first thirty minutes or so. I like products that don’t require an internet connection for that reason.</LI></OL><P>&nbsp;</P> Wed, 24 Jun 2015 15:38:43 GMT Anonymous 2015-06-24T15:38:43Z
