Low-Code No-Code Platforms: The Key to Post-COVID Automation
Life post-COVID has been challenging for many, especially those outside the IT industry. Industries are now gradually catching up with the shortfalls caused by the pandemic. Automation is key for businesses and individuals looking to bounce back quickly. Streamlined and automated processes improve production efficiency, save time, and enhance productivity. This is where Low-Code No-Code platforms come into play.
What Are Low-Code and No-Code Platforms?
Low-Code Platforms: These platforms allow developers of all skill levels to design applications quickly and efficiently with minimal coding. Developers can write minor custom code to modify applications as needed.
No-Code Platforms: Designed for anyone, including non-technical business users, no-code platforms enable app creation by simply dragging and dropping prebuilt visual blocks into a workflow. Teams can build simple applications without waiting for the IT department.
Difference Between Low-Code and No-Code
- Low-Code: Requires minimal coding; suitable for developers.
- No-Code: Requires no coding; suitable for business users and non-developers.
Benefits of Low-Code Platforms
Saves Time and Increases Productivity
Prebuilt code modules allow developers to focus on key features instead of general tasks, enabling rapid development of fully functional applications.
Reduced Labor and Cost
Low-code platforms reduce the number of developers needed for a project. Work done by a team of five can often be handled by a single developer, lowering overall costs. Many platforms are open-source with built-in functionalities, eliminating the need for multiple tools and expensive licenses.
Easy Deployment Process
Deployment is simplified to a single-click process, freeing developers from deployment stress and accelerating product launch timelines.
Improved Customer Experience and Business Agility
Predefined templates and customizable functionalities allow businesses to quickly adapt to customer needs, create new workflows, and scale operations efficiently.
Where to Use and Where Not to Use
Low-code platforms are ideal for:
- Workflow and case management
- Operator desktops
- Operational process automation
- Solutions that require dynamic changes
Low-code platforms are not suited for:
- Applications requiring changes at the source code level
- High-volume transactional processes
- High-performing, scalable applications
In summary, low-code and no-code platforms enable even non-technical users to develop applications or automate workflows quickly.
