Zoho’s low-code and no-code solutions bring tech and businesses together

As businesses accelerate their digital transformation, there is a greater demand for custom digital solutions to meet their digitalization requirements. This has given rise to citizen developers, which are business users with little or no coding experience to create applications using IT technologies to improve business productivity or existing business processes.

In early 2021, Gartner released a new forecast for low-code/no-code development tools. Driven by an increase in remote work due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the company projected a 23 percent increase for the global market for this type of technology. In the months that followed, low-code/no-code tools saw steady growth due to their effectiveness in addressing some of tech’s most complicated challenges—primarily the critical need to digitize workflows, enhance customer and employee experiences and boost the efficiency of commercial and operational teams.

To share further insights into the no-code and low-code revolution, including why this is deemed the future of software development, we spoke to Gibu Mathew, VP & GM APAC at Zoho.

Zoho Corporation is a privately-held company headquartered in Austin, Texas with international headquarters in Chennai, India and offices across the globe.
