5 Reasons
Why Businesses Need Rapid Web Application
Development Platform

• Modern enterprises rely on rapid web application
  development tools increasingly to create mobile
  and web applications.
• The reason is embedded in the term rapid
  itself.
• It is the age when waiting isnt an option.
• The faster, the better!
• This PPT lists out the top five benefits of rapid
  web application development tools and why
  businesses are in need of them to stay ahead of
  the curve.

• Time-to-Market
• Businesses opt for rapid web application
  development tools to expedite the application
  development and delivery process.
• Typically, enterprise app development and
  delivery take anywhere between 3 to 6 months
  using traditional methods, but the RAD web
  application development significantly reduces the
  time required to build apps.
• Iteration Speed
• When it comes to quick iteration, the rapid web
  application development tools score higher than
  the traditional methods.
• With RAD web application development users are
  able to assemble the first viable version of an
  app within hours and initiate field tests.
• The visual tooling feature also allows developers
  to easily incorporate changes, in an iterative
  manner, as compared to traditional methods of
  development.

4

• Reusability of Components
• Rapid web application development tools offer a
  whole new approach to software development
  through reusability of code and repositories.
• Developers, also, dont have to build every
  application from scratch. Instead, the work can
  be divided into smaller pieces and the
  development work can be accomplished
  asynchronously.
• Built-in Security
• Security plays an integral part in enterprise
  software development.
• Risks loom large whenever app development
  projects are outsourced or built from scratch.
• With rapid web application development tools,
  security concerns are taken care of at the
  platform level.
• The built-in security features and the ability to
  take care of security concerns in an organized
  manner makes the rapid web application
  development tools a secure alternative for
  organizations.

• In-house Development
• With a rapid web application, development tools
  apps can be built asynchronously between teams
  with component libraries and IPR shared
  throughout the organization.
• Rapid web application development tools also
  reduce the development times considerably.
• This makes it possible for companies with much
  less expertise in large-scale mobile app
  development start developing apps in-house.
• Better Applications
• The quality of an application plays a crucial
  role in determining end-user adoption.
• If an application is complex, deviates from
  standard user interface paradigms, does not look
  good or performs badly, the end-user adoption is
  likely to suffer.

6

• Rise of Bimodal IT
• The bi-modal IT model or the practice of managing
  two separate but coherent modes of IT delivery is
  a fairly new concept, with rapid web application
  development tools, IT groups can look forward to
  successfully managing critical software systems
  of an organization.
• Managed Platform Service
• Rapid web application development tools that
  support open source technologies is more a
  necessity today, as it ensures an open and
  extensible platform for application delivery.
• Another advantage of managed platforms is that
  different aspects of applications, from client
  user interface to backend logic and integrations
  have been designed in such a way so that the
  features work together on a platform level.
• Users, therefore, enjoy new platform-level
  features and capabilities that are instantly
  available and are guaranteed to work together
  with existing applications.

7

• Saving Resources
• Application development speed and the ability to
  develop mobile apps in-house are some of the ways
  that provide resource and monetary savings there
  are, however, other ways in which organizations
  can save their resources.
• Failure in project delivery and failure in user
  adoption are two of the costliest outcomes of an
  app development project and both risks can be
  mitigated by utilizing rapid web application
  development tools.
• Projects can be delivered successfully with
  increased iteration speed and through the
  re-usability of code and repositories with
  low-code tools.
