Here are five ways the low-code revolution can help your institution level up.
The technology solutions available for higher education institutions are more powerful and complex than ever. And like any good story, the next chapter of digital transformation has a twist: Low-code technology.
Low-code, rapid-application development (RAD) tools enable non-IT specialists to quickly build and deploy custom applications — including case management and process automation solutions — that fill the gaps between your existing systems. And as institutions continue scaling up online learning, remote work and new digital capabilities in the wake of COVID-19, the low-code movement is gaining momentum.
Still, configuring applications on an RAD platform remains a relatively untapped middle ground. According to a University Business survey, less than 8% of higher education institutions use low-code application development.
Some reasons may include the demand for digitizing business processes and the demand for technology staff, which continue to clash and strain IT organizations’ abilities to keep up with the demand to improve higher education process capabilities.
Despite these challenges, the benefits low-code RAD can deliver for higher education are measurably impactful and far-reaching across the institution. By minimizing data silos and the need for costly custom coding, low-code capabilities enable higher education institutions to:
Low-code platforms offer a simplified process that capitalizes on smart technology. Top benefits of RAD platforms include faster rollout, better content integration, increased productivity and enhanced experience. For overwhelmed IT teams in higher education, low-code RAD is a way to fast-track development by leveraging the resources institutions have on hand. For bottom-line watchers, it is a prudent path for dependable, cost-effective solutions. And for your staff and students, it is the future they expect today. Is your institution ready to level up?
