These types of projects often raise eyebrows in IT departments. They probably won’t provide the comparable returns to a big ERP upgrade that requires IT’s focus. But for those without an IT department, such projects require organizations to dedicate resources for a programming team or invest in outsourcing the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, these costly endeavors shouldn’t prohibit organizations from pursuing a major IT project. Instead, these organizations should consider a low-code tool that’s geared toward line-of-business (LOB) workers with some coding skills. These employees can use the tool to build applications that are straightforward and important, but perhaps not urgent enough for IT to develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea of writing less code by dragging and dropping objects is not new. Visual Basic came out in 1991; SQL (originally Structured English Query Language, or SEQUEL) aimed to have analysts — not programmers — design requests to the database in something similar to spoken or written English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today’s\u00a0low-code<\/strong> development<\/a>\u00a0comes from a very similar place: Empower LOB workers with higher-level tools that provide 80% of the functionality for 20% of the effort. Employees can point these tools at a database or spreadsheet and pop out a website or mobile app. Such applications have basic\u00a0create<\/em>,\u00a0read<\/em>,\u00a0update<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0delete<\/em>\u00a0(CRUD<\/a>) functionality, and perhaps store the data in the cloud.
