The latter\u2014as implied by its name\u2014likely involves some level of coding. As a result, automation projects that get built on a low-code tool <em>might<\/em> require some level of involvement from IT or your developers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/process-automation\/\">What is process automation?<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"The_benefits_of_no_code_automation\"><strong>The benefits of using a no-code automation tool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this definition in mind, let\u2019s explore how a no-code automation approach can help your organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Speed to market<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it largely depends on the context, it\u2019s generally the case that the faster you work at implementing an automation on behalf of prospects, customers, or employees, the more value your organization (and these stakeholders) will realize from that automation.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A no-code automation tool optimizes for speed to market as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digital-adoption.com\/line-of-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lines of business<\/a> (LOBs) can implement the automations themselves\u2014versus having to rely on IT or engineers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Business agility&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll need integrations and automations that can keep pace with your stakeholders\u2019 evolving needs. A no-code approach helps your team do just that, as the integrations and automations can get built or modified quickly and as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Workato-38.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Workato-38.png\" alt=\" A no-code approach helps your team do just that as the integrations and automations can get built or modified quickly and as needed.\" class=\"wp-image-42762\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Subject matter expertise<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your business teams are best suited to decide which processes get automated first, in addition to mapping out how these processes should be streamlined. After all, lines of business\u2014and not IT\u2014are the ones who work in the relevant apps and are directly involved in these processes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A no-code tool neatly accounts for this, as it puts LOBs in a position to leverage their expertise and execute on their decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Scalability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your organization\u2019s automation opportunities are likely vast, whether it\u2019s the potential of streamlining incident management, employee onboarding, quote to cash, lead routing, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A no-code automation tool empowers your LOBs to address a greater share of these opportunities and therefore, realize more business value from automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Employee experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A process for building integrations and automations that\u2019s ridden with bottlenecks and delays not only impacts your automations but also your employee experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our research largely confirms this, as IT professionals cited \u201cThe speed with which they are to deliver to lines of business\u201d and \u201cTheir current integration\/automation tools\u201d as their biggest frustrations.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/imFgjsxLfWp2n3Em2dx9tKUKcsxB4UAIH0MHLRsL8sIuzkxa65yfzgwZ5u_DwcAp7kzgutO9gkvb2-PViMmRt_wElhJzrrYpqdt3KPwZamwwaca_60DTzpJXL5isxuKLPwzTzP9o.png\" alt=\"A horizontal bar chart that highlights the biggest frustrations among IT professionals\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><em>A look at IT professionals&#8217; biggest frustrations<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A no-code automation tool can prevent these frustrations from bubbling up, as delivery issues will be minimized, if not eliminated entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/automation-operating-model\/\">A guide to picking the best automation operating model for your organization<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How_to_evaluate_no_code_automation_tools\"><strong>What to look for when evaluating no-code automation tools<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that you\u2019re bought into using a no-code automation tool, let\u2019s review some of the features and functionality to prioritize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.<\/strong> <strong>Pre-built connectivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your organization is like most, your LOBs will look to build automations across a wide range of&nbsp; apps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/wpA4tdCsKiycIByaOUZ0qHw5GjQoeumtCAYcgfW1ofaIj6Y1kYMA0CDV2Zs_URlnlnlunrwb3mReXp0mAXuKKz_Xz7M-TydSYYEtbQcQftEbWquaVIEBLXbI0L3LxW97CS779Wjh.png\" alt=\"A visual representation of the various apps that different teams rely on\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><meta charset=\"utf-8\"><em>A look at the apps that different business teams use and may want to build automations with<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To meet this need at scale, a no-code platform should offer hundreds of pre-built connectors that cover mainstream apps, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/salesforce?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=nocode\">Salesforce<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/integrations\/netsuite?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=nocode\">NetSuite<\/a>, as well as those that are fairly new and less popular.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.
