Got Shadow IT headaches? 🤦🏼♂️
What if I told you it could become a Strategic Asset ✅
Here’s how using Low-Code Platforms. 👇🏽
Shadow IT represents a double-edged sword.
Many organizations today are grappling with the issue of shadow IT – those applications that different departments within your organization create and maintain without your IT team’s knowledge or approval.
Understandably they cause concern as they:
❌ Skirt regular procurement
❌ Don’t follow implementation procedure
❌ Violate governance processes
❌ Significantly increase an organization’s IT and security risks.
They are also of benefit though as they were created to solve a problem.
Can you keep them while actually harnessing their power and minimizing the risks?
The short answer is ‘yes.’

✅ The answer is LOW CODE / NO CODE (LC/NC) Platforms.
Think about it, business developers (who often create shadow IT applications) can develop and deploy applications without needing extensive coding or development experience. By providing professional LC/NC platforms, IT can extend their development know-how to the “shadow side” and work with business developers to create digital solutions that are compliant with regulations, secure, and efficient.
Low-code platforms can provide a way to transform risky shadow IT into a source of innovation and speed.
Not only that, but it allows IT departments to have a significant role in building out the organization’s IT ecosystem.
In short, low-code platforms provide a way for organizations to transform risky shadow IT into a source of innovation and speed. By embracing Low Code / No Code platforms, IT departments can harness the power of shadow IT while minimizing the risks and maximizing the benefits.
