“We invested in a no-code solution, but it didn’t feel like it was no-code. It’s a lot of work to use.”
?
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve been told this by legal ops or in-house folks, well, I’d be sitting on my own private island and not typing here on LinkedIn.
“No-code” solutions aren’t a silver bullet.
A better description for “no-code” would be a DIY with a “drag and drop” interface.
With “no-code” solutions, customers have to build out the workflows and apps.
Instead of coding it in the traditional sense, they have to:?
? learn how to set up applications within the “no-code” software,?
? how to fit it into their existing tech stack,?
? and train others to do the same,
or hire someone to do all of the above. ??
Many are drawn to “no-code” solutions because of the control element.
Legal pros who are often overwhelmed by tech feel like the “drag and drop” nature will allow them more control over the project.
While that may be true, folks typically underestimate - (1) how busy they are, (2) how much work setup takes, and (3) how expensive it is to hire someone to set it up for you.
These factors often lead projects to never get off the ground, budget issues, or the software rarely being used.
That’s one of many reasons why HyperDraft isn’t a “no-code” solution.
