While HTML might have caused struggles for them with large amounts of users I wanted to just offer up that we have found it to be quite useful in a small/medium business for enterprise apps on smaller subsets of devices. So we do not have to worry about supporting every device and OS flavor under the sun.
We are a small dev team and being able to use a web stack prevents us from being spread too thin across too many different technologies.
Is it as "smooth" as native? No, but it gets the information and functionality, the most important parts, to the people who need it and allows us to quickly turn around projects.
And not being native allows us to customize UI to fit each group's particular needs more easily. At least it seems that way.
