No-Code Low-Code in support of Project Management

Chasing deadlines, rising costs, battling budget constraints, and putting out unexpected fires. Sound familiar? It’s a common experience for anyone involved in project management, whether on a large or small scale. But what if I told you that you could mitigate some of these issues? Moreover, you could actually increase control over the entire process and enhance its efficiency, including financially!

How? Let's find out below!

Manage Innovation - Gain an Edge

We're talking about the latest technology that is revolutionizing the creation of digital products and fully supporting the project management process, offering numerous benefits. What technology is this? No-code low-code! Let’s be clear, this is not a deep dive into the technical intricacies of the innovation. Our aim is simply to introduce you to this technology and explain why it significantly changes the game rules that have been known in the market for many years.

No-Code/Low-Code - What Exactly Is It?

In short, these are platforms that allow for the creation of software such as apps, websites, and web and mobile platforms without programming. Yes, without writing even a single line of code! And we're not talking about simple apps but about advanced, scalable platforms. How is this possible?

Magic! Or more specifically, the magic of no-code/low-code platforms, which provide users with tools, ready-made elements, and templates for software creation. It's like Lego bricks - a multitude of different elements that, when combined, give you a new tool.

Why Is This So Important?

Because it completely changes the rules of the game in the world of digital product creation. Now, you no longer need an entire IT team to create your tool or application. You don't have to wait long for its realization, and most importantly, you significantly reduce the costs of the entire process.

How?

It's simple - no-code low-code platforms significantly accelerate the entire development process. Instead of writing code line by line, you assemble your project and implement it using platforms. Right from the development stage, you significantly reduce time, and that's just part of the savings!

Empowering Project Management with No-Code/Low-Code Technology

Take a look at the graph above, which illustrates two distinct approaches to software development: the traditional (requiring "full programming") and the one using no-code/low-code technologies. By utilizing LCNC (low-code/no-code) technology, you can significantly shorten the process time, thereby increasing room for other activities that enhance the efficiency of the entire project.

Cost Reduction in the Process

Moreover, it's no secret that time equals real money. By having access to such technology and using it in our processes, we can significantly reduce the expenses we would incur with traditional software development methods. This also applies to the processes of maintaining the application and its further development. No-Code ensures flexibility and increases control over the entire process.

Save on Employment Costs

Earlier, we mentioned that thanks to LCNC, you don't need an IT team. This is a good moment to clarify who, then, can create all these solutions with this innovative technology?

In theory, anyone.

The ease of use of these platforms and the absence of a programming requirement mean that simple tools, websites, and even applications can be built by anyone. However, for more advanced solutions, experience in handling these platforms, knowledge of programming languages, and best practices are crucial. Yet, this still represents a significant difference in employment costs!

Companies Invest in Citizen Developers

Global companies see this and are investing in so-called citizen developers, i.e., people who, working in various areas of the organization, are open to education and learn LCNC platforms to build tools supporting the company's processes. Microsoft estimates that by the end of 2024, over 450 million no-code/low-code applications will be built by Citizen Developers. Meanwhile, Gartner's 2022 report showed that over 40% of the surveyed companies had initiated efforts to develop Citizen Developers among their employees.

This demonstrates one thing - no-code/low-code is not only a chance to reduce expenses but also a tremendous potential for employee development and skill expansion towards achieving the goals of teams and companies!
