Low code? No problem… just dodge these pitfalls

This ebook that helps you avoid common mistakes as you embrace low-code

Sponsored The low code movement offers some tantalizing benefits for businesses that must deliver ever more software, even as their existing development teams become ever more stretched. With development expertise in short supply, who wouldn’t consider an approach that promises to help leverage your team’s existing resources and get your code crunchers and business types working together in perfect harmony.

Done right, low code can help you produce full-strength applications at ten or more times the speed of traditional environments, where deep experts in code are often siloed off from the very business units they’re supposed to be helping.

Of course, not all low code platforms are created equal, and every business is different. But there are some common pitfalls that every organisation faces, and you can get a rundown on these, and strategies to circumvent them, in this handy ebook courtesy of our friends at Appian.

This concise tome will help you figure out how to put together smaller but more agile development teams that cover all the bases from business analysis, to UX to testing, without the bloat traditional teams tend towards.

And it’ll help you gain a better grasp of the ongoing problems such teams need to tackle, whether people are coming from the dev or business side of the house.

This is, of course, partly down to feedback, and the ebook will point you towards ways to ensure this loop is kept open, meaning early buy-in from stakeholders and ongoing validation as projects progress. And lastly, it will give you tips on how to measure the success of your low code efforts (here’s a clue, it all starts well before you go live). Whether you’re taking your first steps into low-code or have been experimenting and are now ready to scale up your efforts to more teams, you’ll be better prepared for what could go wrong, meaning you’re more likely to get it right the first time. And the next time, and the time after that.

So, if you’re ready to ditch the legacy, and take the high road to low code, head this way first.
