Low-code has been misinterpreted and posses innumerable myths surrounding it which hinder the usage of an easy-to-use, and flexible platform.

FREMONT, CA: Nowadays, low-code has continuously been pushed into the mainstream. According to a report by Forrester, the low-code development platform market has experienced a growth of 50 percent each year. The reason is the increased demand in businesses to develop and release applications much quicker to keep up with the technological trends. The business demand has affected immensely on IT—according to Gartner, the demand will multiply by five times more than IT’s ability to develop applications and deliver through 2021.

Low-code is an efficient method but has been set back due to the myths lingering around it. Some of them are:

• Complications:

Low code platform is an easy-to-use, simplified platform. The user can leverage drag and drop feature to quickly formulate an internal application and integrate it into existing systems with only minimal setup, training, and deployment.

• Process and Data Integrity Will Suffer:

The utilization of low-code can be an adjustment for IT departments who have been writing codes. But, with a low-code platform, the IT can also maintain governance and control the enterprise’s data. By streamlining, the business administrators can acquire, analyze, and take action on the data.

• Not Flexible:

The agility and flexibility of low code is the main reason for the utilization of the platform. Developers of a traditional system often undergo intense pressure to code a perfect application, fearing that any changes in the future will be challenging to implement. The risk-preventive process results in a slow-building of application before rolling out to production. Low-code enables the business administrator to make instant changes in minutes, even seconds.

• Creates Simple Apps Only:

The critical concern in low-code is that it is appropriate only for coding simple apps. The issue is existent only until the enterprises realize the true potential of the low-code connections to the workflows and moves data across the company.

• Not Extensible: 

There exists a fear that low-code is not extensible or robust enough to truly grow. In contrast, the traditional IT engagement means a significant effort spent on back-and-forth communication between IT and business units either discussing or developing its own insights or working on solutions. With low-code, the building of as many applications necessary is possible and can be easily changed as the business transcends.
