Low-Code

Low-Code and No-Code platforms. Competing or complementary?

No-Code is a tool that allows people who are not programmers to build applications, websites and other digital solutions without programming. Low-Code is an approach that aims to reduce manual coding. It uses visual tools in the same way as No-Code but also allows you to introduce custom code for more complex functionalities.

THE BENEFITS OF NO-CODE

No-Code tools make it easy to build apps. If you have some office skilss such as Excell, you won’t have any problem using No-Code platforms.

– Autonomy: Companies don’t depend on developers, they take ownership of No-Code tools directly.

– Cost savings: By not using a team of traditional developers, companies reduce their costs. And we all know how cost reduction may allow a project to be developed or not.

– Speed of development: Businesses are deploying digital solutions faster with drag-and-drop capabilities. No-Code also means fewer bugs and therefore it’s time saved that is not used in debugging.

 

THE BENEFITS OF LOW-CODE

– Flexibility and customization: Low-Code platforms cater to more specific needs. Customization capabilities go further than No-Code platforms, making it easier to build more complex and specific applications.

– Performance: Low-Code applications can handle large volumes of data and more logic complexity with custom architecture and application structure.

Fusion of IT and business: Developers and business departments work closely together to deliver innovative solutions to meet changing customer and market demands.

 

WHEN TO USE LOW-CODE AND NO-CODE?

Using No-Code or Low-Code depends on the complexity of the project, the technical capabilities available, and the goals of the new applications.

No-Code platforms are used more for simple and small projects, while Low-Code platforms allow the development of more complex and large applications to be built with more flexibility and agility.

 

WHEN TO CHOOSE NO-CODE?

No-Code should be preferred for non-complex, fast and simple projects. It can be used for simple internal applications such as small applications, to test an application idea, etc. However, the limitation of No-Code is the simplicity of its applications. No-Code is not ideal for more complex, large-scale applications.

 

WHEN TO CHOOSE LOW-CODE?

Low-code makes it possible to create more flexible and customizable applications. Its strength lies in the fusion between the speed of No-Code and the customization and capability of high code /traditional development. Low-Code allows integration with other systems,  to create more massive and complex applications while offering beautiful interfaces, customer/supplier portals, etc.

 

To conclude, it’s not Low-Code VS No-Code but Low-code & No-Code depending on your needs. There’s nothing stopping you from using both approaches within the same company. On the contrary, you will be more flexible and competitive by adopting the advantages of No-Code for simple and fast projects and the advantages of Low-Code for more complex applications.
