Website or Web App: Which Does Your Business Need?

A website presents your business; a web app does a job for your users. Here is how to choose between them and when you need both.

The short answer

A website informs: who you are, what you offer, how to reach you. A web app lets users do something: log in, build a document, book, pay or manage data. Many businesses start with a website and add an app later.

Choose a website when…

You need visibility on Google, a place to explain your services, and a way for customers to contact you. It is the fastest, most affordable way to get online.

Choose a web app when…

Customers need accounts, saved data, dashboards or automated workflows. CV VergeOn, our online CV builder, is an example: users sign in, build, export and share documents.

How to decide

Write down what a visitor must be able to do. If the answer is “read and contact us”, start with a website. If it is “sign in and manage something”, plan a web app. Not sure? Ask us and we’ll recommend a starting point.
