Poor as always
Due to company policy I am forced to use Reuters at work because its supposed to be cheaper than Bloomberg (thats not entirely true if you add soft costs but anyway). I was delighted to see that Reuters has put out a mobile version of EIKON so installed it on my iPad immediately.
If a company decides to build its software architecture upon Windows Explorer it is a small wonder that this is not the most stable system on the planet. So, EIKON users know the perils of Reuters systems. Having said that, I now turn to the iPad app.
Apple provides a pretty robust and well-running operating system with iOS 6. Still, Reuters developers somehow manage to issue an app that constantly crashes while signing in. This is amazing! How do these guys do that? I have never seen such a bad programming on an Apple device! Just like the desktop version of EIKON this app is far behind state-of-the-art software development. I really cant see how Reuters will ever manage to earn money with this crap.
One star for the effort.
Sorry guys, do it again, please! ASAP
Ps: btw, when can we expect an iPhone 5 compatible version of EIKON?
