Citizen Development is The Need of the Hour

Depending on IT alone to build a digital enterprise is becoming one of the top reasons for digital transformation to come to a halt. But creating an end-to-end digital ecosystem requires an organization-wide attitude change, a cultural reform. Business users have to start building apps independently on IT-approved platforms. By 2024, 65% of app development is going to be on enterprise low-code app development platforms. Many organizations have already jumped on the citizen development bandwagon because they’ve begun seeing the visible business impact it has on business.

IT Need

IT teams are constantly trying to catch up with the growing backlog of work. They’re under pressure to drive the enterprise’s digital transformation and build an IT infrastructure, and the eternal shortage of talent only adds more burden on IT.

Business Need

Business users are trying to fix their outdated processes by building isolated and unsupervised apps without the approval of IT. This has resulted in more chaos as they are entangled in a web of apps, spreadsheets, and paper trails.
