Digitalizing Processes with Low-Code Platforms

They really speed up the digital transformation: Low-code/no-code platforms enable the creation of applications with minimal (low code) or no (no code) programming skills required. The major benefit is that you and your team can develop even complex business applications quickly and easily, cutting costs and allowing you to design agile processes consistent with your business model.

MicroNova is your expert partner for low-code process digitalization—we work with you to find the right solution for your requirements and accompany you through implementation from A to Z.

Low-code offers a change of perspective when developing processes that fully benefits you as a user. You no longer need to purchase expensive off-the-shelf applications or have them designed by experienced programmers. Instead, your team can implement customized processes with a digitalization partner in a very short time and at extremely low cost.

A simple visual approach eliminates the need for programming skills. Users simply drag individual function blocks into a section of the screen—known as a canvas—where they are linked together. This speeds up and reduces the cost of creating customized applications. The emphasis can shift from costs to specific content.

Low-code platforms often contain features that allow you to reuse previously created blocks or applications. This accelerates the development process while also ensuring consistency and reducing sources of error.

Transparent, clear rules ensure that users have the necessary editing and access rights—for simplified permissions management and protected data at all times.

Users have access to a wide range of existing resources, since various interfaces (APIs), databases, cloud services and other external systems can all be integrated. Your existing systems and processes can be seamlessly interlinked, protecting previous investments—and extracting even more from them.

The infrastructure of low-code platforms generally allows applications to be scaled and maintained very easily—without complex configuration and changes to code. A major bonus is that customizations can go live immediately.

Low-code platforms offer versatile and flexible solutions. They can be used to build individual processes from scratch, create extensions for an existing core system, or draw on predefined business processes. A large number of processes are replicated in a similar form across most companies. For example, project management and approval processes for CAPEX investments, invoices, quotations, etc. can be mapped digitally extremely quickly. This also includes facility applications—from the creation of emergency call panels to maintenance management for company cars.

Typical back-office applications or industry-specific solutions can therefore be created on a single platform. Typical fields of application are human resources, sales and marketing, procurement, IT, finance, operational processes, facility management as well as production/manufacturing.

We would be happy to advise you on effective solutions for your individual requirements.
