Zain Omer - PeerSpot reviewer
Software Engineer (Kony-Temenos | Android) at Xpert Digital
A stable and scalable product that offers ease of coding and designing to build applications
There isn't a need for any improvement in Android SDK since they provide users with two or three updates in a year, making it quite stable. The security part in Android SDK depends on how you build an application using the tool so you can apply some security to your application. The reason why Temenos Quantum is the best security tool is because it uses a middleware named Fabric, so the APIs are connected from Fabric to Temenos Quantum. The middleware offered by Temenos is really strong. If I compare the security offered by Android to that of Temenos Quantum, Android will lose in terms of security. You can create a secure application with Android SDK. The amount of security offered by Android SDK is less when compared to Temenos, making it an area of concern where improvement can be made. I don't think Android SDK needs to add any features because they give updates frequently.

Developer at a tech company with 51-200 employees
Best mobile application framework for an enterprise application containing a large number of views with lots of components, but a little sluggish performance on android platforms.
* Scrolling needs some serious tweaking, specifically for android. There is a huge time lag while scrolling through a list. * Lacks full access to native hardware, but if you want access to more hardware then you will have to combine your sencha application with PhoneGap. * No support for blackberry. The sencha sdk beta tools provide support for native packaging for only android and iOS (even their team says they haven't tested much on blackberry). * It's still in its developing phase and may take a while for it to fully mature. * Animations run slower. * No support for windows phone as well.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I have found the functions related to the services to the community for applications to be the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is a stable product."
"Applications built with Android SDK can run on a large number of devices from various vendors and are not restricted to a particular vendor"
"Being an Android developer this SDK platform will continue to grow as the developer community invests in it."
"Supports mobile and IOT devices."
"The best thing about Android SDK is that it supports a lot of devices."
"Android SDK is very scalable, secure, and fast...It is a completely stable solution that has been working for many years."
"The best thing about Android SDK is its extensive graphics compared to iOS."
"I would highly recommend sencha mobile application frameworks for either cross platform or standalone web apps."
 

Cons

"There are security issues in the Android platform, so it is more vulnerable to attack."
"Google has a monopoly on tools for Android app development, so Android SDK is the only choice available."
"Emulators are slow, especially the ones above API level 12 (Tablets and ICS). Slow emulators can really hinder the process of development."
"Android SDK could be better if its integration for Flutter was improved; I understand it is tailored for Kotlin and Java apps, but many of us are using Flutter."
"Developing apps for tablets is comparatively difficult because the emulator is extremely slow."
"The simulator comes up pretty slow. In the real time agile environment the simulator is not efficient to launch quickly and has some drawback in receiving the push notification."
"It is an excellent solution, and it would be nice to get fewer updates."
"I am still expecting Android SDK to incorporate flash or similar video tool capabilities."
"Scrolling needs some serious tweaking, specifically for android. There is a huge time lag while scrolling through a list."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Android SDK is essentially an open-source product on which anybody can work."
"I am using the free version of Android SDK."
"Many countries, even those with fewer resources, prefer using Android SDK because it is cheap."
"Android SDK can be cheap and can go high in terms of prices, and it all depends on who the customers are and what kind of application you want. One application may cost 5,000 USD and can go up from 1,00,000 to 2,00,000 USD."
"It is an open-source platform."
