Are you looking for ways to streamline your business processes? A low-code platform may be just the solution you are looking for.
InfoWorld explains that a “low-code platform is an ideal solution” when:
While there are many benefits to low-code development platforms when it comes to business processes, let’s look at four ways that low code can work for you.
With a low-code solution, day-to-day tasks that would previously have required coding can be done by business users in a click-and-drag environment. This means that you won’t need a full development team to create and manage the applications that you wish to make for your business. In fact, some of the best low-code platforms are so user friendly that, once they are set up and configured, nearly anyone in your organization can be a “citizen developer.”
Low-code tools often feature drag-and-drop functionality, allowing business users to create complex tools, like forms and workflows, without knowing a programming language at all. This makes for rapid application development and implementation. Or, as Forbes puts it, low-code platforms ”enable improved productivity as organizations will be able to develop application functionalities much faster.”
Because there’s no need for a software development team to maintain applications in a solution such as formsflow.ai, citizen developers can make changes to their applications at any time. If a team member realizes that the application isn’t working as they expect, it can generally be changed and re-deployed in-house.
Because low-code application platforms tend to feature a drag-and-drop user interface, or sometimes a graphical user interface like a wireframing tool for workflow automation visualization, users can select the features of the platform that work for them.
Rather than being stuck with a one-size-fits-all solution that includes features your team won’t use, a low-code platform makes it easy to create the tools that you need. Or, as Harvard Business Review puts it, a low-code platform is “like a custom suit or dress, offering a close fit to business requirements.”
Once your low-code development platform is configured, it’s time to start streamlining your business processes. Using the app you developed, you can quickly move a task from department to department with a customizable automated workflow.
Some low-code platforms and solutions include tools like robotic process automation, allowing users to “outsource” some tasks to computerized bots. Letting a bot handle email replies may free your sales team up to manage, well, sales.
