### "Quick way to develop mobile app for multiple platforms" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *8 June 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1. It provides features such as code once and deploy on multiple platform is a good option.
2. Developer who knows html and javascript basic can develop the application 
3. Very time saving approach
4. Various pluggins available which will try to connect with mobile using location , camera 
5. CLI platform is there to start a project till the deployment.
> 
> **Cons**: 1. Minor differences are observed between NATIVE UI and cordova application UI 
2. You need to write image, api url very carefully
3. Size of the apk is large as compared to Native application
> 
> Overall experience is very good. We have developed multiple applications using Cordova for various departments. It helps a lot to sales employees who needs to go office for their daily meeting submission.now they are entering all the details on the go. Managers approve the request on the go while traveling or from home only without opening laptop.

### "Parfait pour faire des applications basé sur HTML" — 5.0/5

> **Nina** | *7 August 2023* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: La navigation en CLI, la facilité d'installation, la documentation très détaillé, l'usage du code html
> 
> **Cons**: L'utilisation en CLI peut parfois ne pas être intuitive, Android Studio est quasi-réquis pour compiler et signer les applications ainsi que générer la clé.
> 
> Apache Cordova m'a permis de mettre à disposition de mes partenaires des applications liés à mes serveurs et qui leurs permettent d'envoyer les informations nécessaires.

### "Very small ramp up time from web development" — 3.0/5

> **Anis** | *24 June 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very easy to shift from web application development to mobile application development by only adding Apache Cordova, a layer on the web application. From a developer's point of view, the learning curve is very fast.
> 
> **Cons**: It is a nightmare of detect issues in all devices. Some of the Android devices will not render UI as expected, so testing can be difficult.
> 
> Good for internal enterprise applications
