As an SME owner, you constantly hear people selling you the idea that digitizing is the future of your business. that if you don't do it you are going to be left behind and that you have to move to the Cloud, they quote you concepts that you don't know or that you have heard but that you don't know what they mean. You are aware that you have to leave the analogical era, but when you have consulted companies that offer web solutions; their budgets make you still want your spreadsheet.

The companies that offer technological solutions have elaborated sophisticated platforms, thought about the big companies and their needs, they have not understood that an SME does not need the same as a Top Company, so they want to shoehorn in, complex solutions that do not give an answer to the day to day of the small and medium companies.

That is why we hear in all the media about how companies will change thanks to Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, or the Internet. Solutions that will undoubtedly change humanity, but that a small and medium company does not need. Your company needs an application to manage the stock, logistics, personnel, invoicing, or control of your own website. Solutions that adapt to reality.

To answer this, we have Low Code, a programming method where processes are automated, this means that when you start building a new application, there are elements that are always repeated no matter what the solution is for. Therefore, instead of starting from scratch to generate these processes, the Low Code platform generates them automatically, so you just have to concentrate on the design of the solution.

It also bets on a visual development model, fewer screens full of code, and more visual elements, which allow you to see how your application is being developed. The final objective of Low Code is to empower people, turning them into Citizen Developers, common users who thanks to this development model learn to create solutions. The Evolution of Low Code will be the Non-Code, where applications are created without the need for a single line of code; we have not reached this point yet.

Currently, if you have never developed, but you spend hours to understand the operation of Low Code you can learn to create your own solutions. In addition, if you have previous technical knowledge you will fly with a platform of these characteristics since it takes away the tedious and boring tasks that do not bring value.

So, to summarize, which are the advantages of Low Code?

It is affordable.

You do not need a big IT team, as long as you have the "IT guy", the one who updates your portal, which is enough.

Create solutions in less time without weaknesses or security gaps.

Your applications are ready to grow; you can go from one to 100 users without worrying.

You do not need to redo your whole application every time you want to make a change, or spend months of programming to make an improvement or do a facelift.

It serves to make from a smart website to more complex platforms, we repeat, without the need to enlarge your IT team, if you want to have more developers it will translate into advancing even faster.

You do not have to install, nor renew your computer equipment for the platform to work. Everything you create is securely in the Cloud, so you can access it from anywhere at any time.

Low Code will allow you to advance towards the Digitalization of your company, which is very important, but it will help you do it in a simple and understandable way. This model has been developed to empower people, to democratize knowledge, and to allow everyone to have access to technological development.
