Announcement: Volt MX Unleashes Citizen Development

I’m excited to announce that we’re expanding Volt MX, our multiexperience low-code platform, with proven citizen development capabilities. Already recognized by leading analysts for its outstanding low-code support for professional developers, Volt MX is now enabling citizen developers to build apps in minutes alongside IT on a single governed platform.

Unified Development Platform

Volt MX is the industry’s first platform to provide persona-specific, high-fidelity developer experiences – for both no-code and low-code – on a unified development platform with transparent pricing and no hidden costs.

Since business users are experts in their domain, we believe they should be equipped with their own, persona-specific tools to build their own solutions that solve business challenges.

Most solutions in the market today cater exclusively to either the citizen or the professional developer, resulting in poor adoption by citizen developers, and disjointed collaboration leading to additional cost and complexity for IT organizations to maintain.

Without introducing shadow IT, Volt MX makes it possible to:

• Enable any organization to tackle their application development backlog and solve business problems at the speed their business demands.
• Empower citizen developers with confidence, without compromising IT standards and best practices.
• Upscale and enhance citizen-developed apps in minutes without rewrites.

What existing Volt MX customers can expect:

Starting today, Volt MX B2E customers and Volt MX Go customers with active subscriptions will see the HCL Leap download package available in the HCL Software License and Download Portal. Without delay, you’ll be able to deploy HCL Leap and allow citizen developers to start building apps. The Volt MX platform components now include:

• Leap: IDE for citizen developers of all skillsets to create situational apps in a safe, governed environment using predefined IT resources in Volt Foundry.
• Volt Iris: IDE for professional developers to create new applications and upscaling existing Leap apps.
• Volt Foundry: Environment for professional developers to manage backend integration and workflow services for both professional and citizen development.
