Both Corona and Titanium are excellent choices for any kind of utility or "non-game" app. There are pros and cons to each, of course, which are largely matter of opinion.

That said, you can look at this page here: http://www.coronalabs.com/resources/case-studies/
- On the right you will see a bunch of apps done in Corona that are utilities/business/non-game apps.

Some are really very impressive, some very successful and may help you make up your mind.

There are limitations in using Corona SDK for Enterprise Applications. Some of the are below:

  • Most of the well known third party libs and frameworks cannot be used with Corona SDK.
  • Some of the features offered by the underlying operating systems cannot be used.
  • Features available on iOS are not available on Android.
  • Third Party SDKs would be always behind from the new features introduced by the native mobile SDKs

Refer this

So in short, you need to know the complete specifications of your app, and research if it is possible using Corona SDK and then start with your project

From the website you pointed at...

Corona is renowned for game creation, but is an equally powerful tool for other app types including business apps, utility apps, educational apps, eBooks and more.
