Why should I use the app instead of just using a browser on my mobile device?

The Cisco dCloud mobile app has been optimized for users that want a convenient way to browse, schedule and manage sessions from their mobile device.

Our goal is to continue to build a mobile optimized browser experience for dCloud as well as a mobile app to provide support for all mobile platforms and use cases. The new mobile app will be the most optimized experience for smartphone and tablets with integrated SSO login (60-day cookie) and push messaging. During FY18 we plan to enhance push messaging to include scheduling notifications and subscriptions for news for solutions you are interested in.
