Does Your Business Need a Progressive Web Application (PWA)?

Does Your Business Need a Progressive Web Application (PWA)?

A progressive web app is a set of technologies enabling you to install a website on a device as an application. PWA is designed to function and look like a native app. It may be accessed immediately from the browser and doesn't need to be downloaded to the device. PWA will likely become a solution for several issues your business faces. If at least one of the following statements is true, a Magento progressive web app is the right choice for you.

  • You strive to improve the site's mobile conversions

    Your store has far from perfect mobile conversions and a high bounce rate (due to slow page loads, pages created without taking mobile devices into account, poor UX or SEO, etc.)

  • You want to provide the customers with a native app experience

    You were thinking about getting a regular native application but want a more modern and cost-effective solution.

  • You're aiming for efficient search engine indexing

    You face problems with search results positions and look for efficient ways to fix them.

  • You'd like to enhance your business's marketing

    You're seeking a method to boost your mobile retail sales without investing much in native app development.

  • You migrate your website from Magento 1 to Magento 2

    You're currently migrating your website from Magento 1 to Magento 2 and wish to cut costs and get a PWA straight away.

Why Turn to a Magento PWA Development Company?

Because of the steep increase in the number of mobile device users, the introduction of PWA is more important than ever before. Here are some of progressive web apps’ prominent characteristics that make Magento 2 PWA services so appealing to businesses.

Great Performance

PWA reduces loading time by using background service workers to complete labor-intensive activities.

Cross-Support

PWAs have a cross-support feature, making it perfect for those who frequently transfer between multiple devices.

Enhanced Visibility

The "add to home screen" option gives more visibility to the store. Customers may access the app with a single click

Native App-like UX

PWAs and native apps share many characteristics, like personalization or gesture control, and have an equivalent effect on the user experience.

Lower Development Cost

Progressive apps don't need two separate codebases, unlike native apps. A single web development team is enough for the maintenance.

No Need to Use App Stores

With a PWA, you avoid the extra costs and time-consuming publication process associated with app stores. Customers use the app and receive updates without downloading the app or waiting for a new verification round.

How Can Magento 2 PWA Development Services Benefit Your Business

Do you doubt whether you need a PWA for the Magento store? There are many reasons to create one for the business. First of all, you have an excellent opportunity to provide the customers with amazing web technologies. Applying a single codebase and web innovations, PWAs enable anybody to use your product on any device.

  • Mobile Conversions

    As a rule, the mobile conversion rates are quite low. The mobile versions of websites are usually slow, have poor navigation, and inconvenient UX. According to Google stats, your conversions can increase by 15% if the site loads in 2 seconds or less. And a PWA can measurably boost your site's conversions on mobile devices.

    With Magento PWA development services, your website will get an improved UX and accelerated site speed, uplifting the shopping experience.

  • Acquisition Costs

    Users get frustrated if they face difficulties when browsing a website on a mobile device. E.g., can’t tap a CTA button, close a pop-up, etc. Often it is due to inconvenient design solutions. Such issues can lead to your business losing money. 

    PWAs focus on mobile site optimization and page speed enhancement. Their enhanced UX/UI gives a native app-like feel, improving acquisition costs.

  • Push Notifications

    It's no secret that selling something to an existing client is much easier than to a newcomer. Returning customers, on average, bring over a quarter of the revenues. 

    Push notification functionality available in PWAs implies sending reminders to pull clients back into the sales funnel, effectively growing repeat site visits and purchases.

  • SEO

    Page speed is among the most significant factors influencing a site's ranking. Thus, if the pages load sluggishly, no website can go far. This regards search engine optimization and making leaps within the organic SERPs. By turning to a Magento 2 PWA development agency, you can strengthen the site's SEO and rankings.

  • PWA Offline Use

    Unlike native apps, PWAs don't require direct AppStore or Google Play downloads. This means practically instant installation eliminating waiting time when adding the PWA to the home screen.
    Furthermore, PWAs don't take up any storage space on the user's device. They're more of a link rather than a weighty native app that can get deleted to save device memory space. They don't need any updates from the user's side either.

  • PWAs Work from the Browser

    When the internet connection is unstable, pages on most websites take quite a while to load as they are packed with heavy, complicated features and media files. It significantly affects the user satisfaction rate. Not to mention the situations when there's no internet connection at all.

    With such a PWA solution for Magento as an offline mode, your customers won't lose access to their shopping lists and carts if your connection breaks down. PWAs are the salvation to the audience facing poor Internet connection problems. This approach enables offline app use through caching and preserving part of the app's data. 

Do you doubt whether you need a PWA for the Magento store? There are many reasons to create one for the business. First of all, you have an excellent opportunity to provide the customers with amazing web technologies. Applying a single codebase and web innovations, PWAs enable anybody to use your product on any device.

With Magento PWA development services, your website will get an improved UX and accelerated site speed, uplifting the shopping experience.

Decrease Acquisition Costs

PWAs focus on mobile site optimization and page speed enhancement. Their enhanced UX/UI gives a native app-like feel, improving acquisition costs.

Retain More Customers with Push Notifications

It's no secret that selling something to an existing client is much easier than to a newcomer. Returning customers, on average, bring over a quarter of the revenues.

This regards search engine optimization and making leaps within the organic SERPs. By turning to a Magento 2 PWA development agency, you can strengthen the site's SEO and rankings.

Ensure the Access from Browser

Unlike native apps, PWAs don't require direct AppStore or Google Play downloads. This means practically instant installation eliminating waiting time when adding the PWA to the home screen.
Furthermore, PWAs don't take up any storage space on the user's device. They're more of a link rather than a weighty native app that can get deleted to save device memory space. They don't need any updates from the user's side either.

Magento 2 PWA Development Services FAQ

What is Magento PWA?

The majority of websites are monolithic. It means that the frontend is produced on the backend. The server creates an HTML page responding to a user request by getting user-specific data and sending it to the user's device. The procedure is repeated each time a person moves to another page.

Monolithic architecture can be replaced with headless. It suggests a front-and-back split. A progressive web application (PWA) is a headless responsive website optimized to function and look like a native app. When the website loads, the server sends a basic HTML page with a JavaScript file. Instead of getting all the content directly from the backend, the rest of the website is produced using the browser. Therefore, a PWA gains its greatest attributes, such as an excellent user experience, quick speed, responsiveness, etc.

What affects the cost of Magento PWA development?

The price of Magento PWA development might vary depending on various factors, including:

  • Functionality: The more features you need in the PWA, the longer and more costly the development process will be. 
  • Design and user experience: These factors can significantly influence the development cost, particularly if you want a bespoke user interface.
  • Integrations with other products: If you wish to incorporate analytics or marketing tools from third parties into the PWA, the development cost may increase.
  • Maintenance: Once the PWA has been created, you need to provide continuous support. Bug repairs, security upgrades, and the creation of new features will raise the total development cost.

Should I choose a Magento PWA over a Native App?

Progressive web apps (PWAs) provide several benefits over native apps, such as:

  • Cross-platform compatibility: PWAs may be accessible from any device and are created using web technologies, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Native apps need to be developed separately for iOS and Android since they are exclusive to those platforms.
  • No installation is necessary: PWAs don't need to be downloaded from an app store; instead, they can be accessed through a URL.
  • Lower development costs: Since there’s no need to create two separate apps, it is less expensive to construct a PWA than a native app.
  • Lower data usage: PWAs often use less data because they are smaller than native apps.

What kinds of businesses need PWAs?

Any business can benefit from having a PWA, but some may find them especially helpful.

  • E-commerce: PWAs provide eCommerce companies with a quick, responsive, and seamless shopping experience, as well as offline functionality, push notifications, and simple checkout.
  • Media: PWAs are applied by media businesses to distribute content, including videos, podcasts, and news articles.
  • Hospitality: PWAs may be used to deliver real-time updates, trip plans, booking confirmations, and offline maps for the travel and hospitality industries.
  • Social networks: PWAs enable users to rapidly and easily access social networks and receive push notifications, without downloading a native app.

Do PWAs have any drawbacks that I should know about?

Since the technology is relatively new, there are certain flaws that you should be aware of:

  • Insufficient support for iOS: iOS does not support all PWA functionalities. Support for service workers is quite restricted when compared to Android. Apart from that, there is a 50Mb storage restriction. As a result, many users are unable to access PWAs.
  • Limited Capability: Not every feature of the device can be used. For example, you cannot access Bluetooth, contacts, or the calendar. When your application has to use a device's hardware heavily, a native app is typically preferable over a PWA.
