How can no-code platforms power the creation of enterprise apps?

No-code is a new breed of offering in the world of technology that enables anyone to build apps or websites. Today, having an app or website is a bare necessity for any business, but most companies are afraid to invest in it majorly because of two reasons – first, it is costly, and second, technology changes continuously and rapidly, making every new development obsolete in no time. However, now businesses can own a website within the budget they want!

No-code platforms are gaining popularity among businesses across industries and scales. These platforms offer a myriad of benefits to companies at the development as well as the design front. Let us explore some of the reasons for their extreme popularity worldwide.

Anyone can create an app

For most brands, especially startups, technology or online marketing is a challenge due to the enormous investments it demands. There are several prerequisites like finding and hiring suitable candidates, making blueprints, developments, testing, debugging, and a whole lot of quality checks before launching an app or a website. But, a no-code platform simplifies every bit of this process. Most importantly, the platform puts users at the centre of the development process, irrespective of their coding knowledge. The users only need to choose a design template and drag and drop the features into the app. That’s it! The app is ready to go live on any app store now.

Cost-effective

Effective use of investment is key to success for a business. The cost that goes into finding, hiring, and retaining a candidate is considerable. Moreover, the companies also have to invest in the right equipment, cloud storage, and other technological tools required to develop an app or a website. With no-code development, companies can spare themselves from pouring in enormous investments.

Time-saving

With no-code platforms, a brand can start developing any digital asset as soon as they have subscribed to their plans, without wasting any time on briefings or training. The development process of any no-code digital asset is approximately 50% faster than the traditional processes. The platform also offers technological upgrades that are easy to integrate and work with.

Fun to work

With the drag-and-drop feature, no-code platforms gamify the whole development process, making it a fun experience for the users. It allows users to experiment and develop innovative products with low investment. Besides testing, experimenting with ideas consumes a lot of time and effort. Most such projects leave companies with a trail of cost as well. But that’s not the case with the no-code platforms. No-code platforms allow companies to dabble with product ideas, test them or reject them at up to 70% lower costs.

No-code is 100% secure

Security tops the list of requirements when it comes to app development and functionality. This aspect generally demands more cost than the cumulative total spent on developing an app, and businesses commit the amount to keep their innovation intact. No-code platforms take extra measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of every product being developed and maintained on their platforms without charging a dime to the companies.
