Low-code platform App Builder’s first part of its two-part 2025 App Development Trends Report reveals that 95% of companies have used low-code and no-code solutions for software development in the past year. Moreover, most tech leaders (84%) say that AI will not replace their reliance on low-code and no-code solutions, and 76% of them say that AI will make their existing tools more efficient.
“Now, as AI converges with low-code and no-code, we’ll see an entirely new paradigm emerge that will change how apps are built, who can build them and how fast it can happen,” said Jason Beres, SVP of Developer Tools, at Infragistics, the company behind the low-code platform.
Low-code and no-code solutions
The report also revealed that almost all (98%) tech leaders reported saving time in development using low-code and no-code solutions. 78% reported saving up to 50% of development time, and 62% of companies using these tools have reduced software development costs.
Companies have implemented low-code and no-code tools to improve developer productivity (37%), allow developers to focus on more strategic work (25%), increase end-user satisfaction (20%), and decrease manual errors (19%).
Moreover, 29% prioritise increasing flexibility when using low-code and no-code tools to create custom apps that meet specific company needs.
“It’s clear low-code and no-code tools are here to stay. As companies incorporate AI and other new technologies into low-code and no-code development, tech leaders must not only leverage the benefits of automating more app development processes faster, improving collaboration and increasing productivity, but ensure their organisations and development teams continue to evolve and upskill with their technology,” said Beres.
