A survey by Mendix, an enterprise application development company, revealed last month that most organizations expect to use low-code more than traditional coding by 2024.
Low code is set to surpass traditional coding as companies around the world find it essential to support the increasing complexity of technology, increase automation and achieve greater business agility.
Low-code platforms are simple and effective for turning great ideas into compelling solutions while addressing constraints of budgets, time, resources, manual paper processes, complex processes or legacy system maintenance, Charoo Singh, Country Head, Business Applications, Microsoft India.
A survey by Mendix, an enterprise application development company, revealed last month that most organizations expect to use low-code more than traditional coding by 2024.
The survey also revealed that if respondents did not adopt low code during the pandemic, one in nine companies would go out of business due to lost customers, damaged reputation, lost revenue or layoffs.
Gartner estimates that 70% of applications developed by businesses will be built on low- or no-code technologies by 2025, up from less than 25% in 2020.
“Faster digital adoption and automation are two direct benefits of low and no code over traditional coding. This development also reduces human error and saves time on debugging and testing codes every time you develop a new one,” Tusheet Shrivastava, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Geo IQ.
It gives the user the flexibility to experiment and measure results from multiple tests built on different variable sets and choose the one that gives the most accurate results, he added.
Traditional code-based development will not be able to support the growing demand of today’s rapidly growing ecosystem of digital applications and services. Instead, code-first tools will need to be combined with low-code development tools like Power Apps and integrated into any organization’s IT plan. These can increase productivity and efficiency in any business process and allow employees to create custom solutions for their own roles, Singh said.
The technology company has a low-code development platform, Microsoft Power Platform, that enables anyone in the organization to analyze data, create solutions, automate processes and create chatbots.
Low-code and no-code solutions can replace traditional coding because they now enable high-level customization for rapid adoption, Shrivastava said.
However, no code/low code requires a compromise between flexibility and accessibility. The easier a tool is to use, the less flexible it is and vice versa. Companies need to minimize this trade-off, he added.
