Quite many businesses have already started to realize the potential of Zoho Creator and successfully implement its power to embark on their digital transformation journey.


Build Custom Apps with Advanced Features of Zoho Creator


Zoho Creator enables everyone to build apps without prior coding experience. So, if you want to leverage this low-code development platform for building Custom Apps, it’s essential to know about the following features:


1. Visual Modeling

The visual modeling interface allows you to view how your application will look when it is built. These graphical models are easier to understand than any other traditional coding language, allowing non-developers to quickly take hold of application design. In addition, this scenario helps business users to try something unique, as they always have a sense of what they are creating.


2. Drag and Drop Configuration


Zoho Creator comes with a simple drag and drop interface that helps the users and developers to create applications visually, which results in faster deployment. This feature is the most prominent one as a low-code platform and something that is actually helpful to build apps without hiring a professional developer. It lets you manage code easily through visual models.


3. Security


Zoho Creator presents all the necessary features that make your apps safer. Customers won’t find it appealing if the application isn’t reliable, regardless of its usefulness or aesthetically pleasing. When managing critical data, you can’t take the risk to use something that can probably give access to hackers. Zoho platform has all the necessary security framework certifications and proven experience of a decade in large-scale projects. Its built-in security features make this a safer and dependable solution for internal processes in industries that handle sensitive data assets.


4. Multi-Device Deployment


Creating an app with multichannel compatibility lets your employees access it any time and from anywhere in the world. Zoho Creator Certified Developer will build an app once, and it will be handy on any device. In addition, Cross-functionality is vital since not all of your users work on the same device or platform. And with low-code app development, you don’t need to code for every single platform and operating system once you have created an app.


5. Scalability


Another vital feature of Zoho Creator that is worth noticing is scalability. The applications built on it allow you to add more users to the growth of your organization. It gets challenging to manage and control each person's access when there are a large number of employees in your company. Zoho Creator makes this easy for you by enabling you to monitor users' access based on their job roles.


In addition to this, you can control what end users can perform at both broad and minor levels. For example, you can authorize whether the user is an administrator, an expert user, or an end-user and consign roles and permissions based on your company’s employees’ designation.
