The year 2020 has shown that digital transformation has become a must for companies and brands of every size. According to McKinsey, the adoption of digital channels among US consumers has been growing, and 73% of consumers have changed the way they shop and purchase products.
Also, other trends like more people working from home --and staying at home-- as well as the significant need for collaboration has increased the speed of adoption of new technologies that enable technical and business users to build digital experiences.
In this article, we want to share with you some of the most exciting developments we’ve made and the vision we have for 2021 and beyond.
During 2020, we’ve been focusing on three main areas: NoCode development, interoperability, and product experience. Let’s see these focus areas a bit closer.
No-code and Low-code development have been part of our cornerstones this year because we want to empower non-technical users, so that they become as independent as possible in their day-to-day operations. At the same time, we believe that by empowering non-technical users, developers can focus on innovating and architecting, which is what really moves the needle and reduces costs in the end.
