Adobe Flash Platform Benefits
What are rich Internet applications?
Rich Internet applications (RIAs) are engaging, dynamic applications that can be deployed across desktops, browsers, and mobile devices. Businesses can use external-facing RIAs to improve user satisfaction and revenue, while using internal-facing RIAs to simplify internal systems and improve productivity.
"Even modest improvements in online
customer experiences can boost revenue
gains by $117 million to $311 million per
year — due to additional purchases,
reluctance to switch, and likelihood of
recommending to colleagues and friends."
Ñ Forrester, 2009
