New RhoMobile Suite V5.0 Offers Enterprise App Development Using CSS3, HTML5, JavaScript and Ruby

Motorola Solutions has released RhoMobile Suite 5.0, the latest version of its set of mobile app development tools for creating OS and device-agnostic enterprise-class mobile apps, with a new pricing option featuring per-developer subscription pricing. 

In an effort to align application developer needs with budget pricing, the new price structure allows developers to compare plans and use RhoMobile’s framework to deliver enterprise-class mobile applications.

Using their existing web skills to build native mobile apps, developers can deploy RhoMobile Suite to write an app once and run it on any mobile device, any operating system. 

The platform is comprised of a set of tools for building, testing, debugging, integrating, deploying and managing enterprise apps. Developers can create apps using familiar web technologies, such as CSS3, HTML5, JavaScript and Ruby. These mobile development services are offered in the cloud and include hosted build, synchronization and application management.

RhoMobile 5.0’s new service model offers multi-tier transparent pricing including a free level and two paid subscription levels, Silver and Gold. Rhodes, the basic app framework and RhoStudio are free to use. Both paid levels includes Rhodes and RhoStudio as well as RhoElements (enhanced enterprise features such as barcode reading and automatic data encryption), Cloud Build and the Visual Studio plug-in.

The new licensing has been rolled out along with the release of RhoMobile Suite 5.0 and is now available. Developers can purchase licensing and receive one month of free services.
