The facts

35% of software projects fail or are delayed due to accumulated technical debt, according to a Stripe study.

Companies that adopt Low-Code solutions reduce software maintenance by 50%, freeing up resources for innovative projects.

Reduction of technical debt

Code standardization:
Generated code is clean, optimized, and compliant with best practices, reducing human error.

Simplified maintenance:
Changes are made without touching the underlying code, limiting regressions.

Fewer bugs:
Thanks to built-in automated testing, errors are detected and fixed early.

Built-in scalability:
The modular architectures of Low-Code platforms easily adapt to new requirements without the need for complete redesigns.

Concrete Benefits

Reduced maintenance costs:
Less code, fewer bugs, and reusable components mean teams spend less time fixing issues or refactoring code.

Time savings:
By reducing technical debt, teams can focus on innovation and building new features instead of resolving legacy technical problems.

Better scalability:
Since scalability is built in from the start, there is no need to rewrite code as requirements grow.

Case Study

A study conducted by McKinsey showed that a company that migrated to a Low-Code platform reduced its technical debt by 60% over two years.

This resulted in a 45% reduction in maintenance costs and a 35% acceleration in the delivery of new features.
