Learn more about Low code / No code development platforms
Low-code and no-code development platforms help users design and build applications with minimal or no coding required. Low-code platforms are often used by professional developers to speed up the development process. No-code platforms are designed for for non-technical users.
The rise of citizen developers, better enterprise alignment and increasing productivity are leading to the growing importance of low-code development. You can find a more detailed explanation of this in our research section.
The business team uses visual building blocks to develop applications. Feel free to read our more detailed answer in our research section.
Here are a few questions you need to ask while choosing a low-code development platform:
Is it scalable?
Though the purpose of low-code development is mainly driven by developing relatively smaller and departmental applications, there are enterprise-wide LCDPs as well. As the number of users increases, being able to scale becomes a matter for a company. Therefore an organization should consider a scalable LCPD if they want to integrate low-code technology within the enterprise.
Does it have a no-code option?
Most low code platforms require some input codes for business logic and process flow descriptions that's why enterprises still need developers for low-code development. On the other hand, some platforms in the market have a no-code option which enables citizen developers to build applications with minimal involvement from the tech team.
Does it allow collaboration across business and IT teams?
Developing an application mostly needs teamwork. LCDPs enable users to interact with each other while they’re working on the application. Executives need to pay attention if the platform has collaborative working features.
Is it available on the cloud?
Some platforms took off as on-premise applications and have limited cloud support. It would be great to have a platform with cloud support since most organizations are either on the cloud or plan to be on the cloud soon.
Is it secure?
Security is an important concern for businesses from various industries. The right tool for businesses is the one that has all the required security certifications and is approved by your company's information security team
Usecases include:
- MVPs.
- Customer engagement apps
- Smart process apps
- Software modernization apps
