Why low-code platforms are an ideal solution for automating legal activities and HR processes
Legal practice and human resources management are areas where precision, speed and flexibility play a key role. Process automation not only increases efficiency, but also minimizes the risks of errors that can lead to serious consequences.
With the advent of low-code platforms, law firms and HR departments have the opportunity to abandon outdated boxed solutions in favor of more modern and flexible tools.
In this article, we will look at why low-code platforms are becoming the preferred choice for automation, and how they help solve specific tasks for lawyers and HR specialists.
1. Flexibility and adaptability to business needs
Boxed solutions offer a standard set of functions, which often does not correspond to the specifics of the work of a legal department or HR service. Finalizing such solutions to meet individual requirements is either impossible or requires significant financial investments.
Low-code platforms, on the contrary, provide a unique opportunity to create and customize applications for specific tasks.
Examples of solutions for lawyers
Legal Document Constructor
Automate the preparation of contracts, statements of claim, claims, and other documents. Just upload the templates, set up the fields to fill in, and the system will generate the finished document itself.
Calculator for calculating compensation
Create a tool that automatically calculates the amount of payouts upon dismissal, taking into account seniority, salary, and other parameters.
Chatbot for consultations
Set up a bot that will answer frequently asked questions from customers, for example, about the procedure for filing lawsuits or the timing of cases.
Examples of HR solutions
Chatbot for employees
Create a bot that will help employees arrange vacations, sick days, request information, or learn about corporate benefits.
Candidate registration system
Automate the recruitment process by setting up notifications, reminders, and integration with mail or messengers.
Salary and Vacation Calculator
Develop a tool that automatically calculates payments, taking into account taxes, bonuses, and other factors.
2. Rapid deployment and updates
In legal practice and HR processes, time is money. Delays in preparing documents or processing requests can lead to losses or dissatisfaction among employees.
Low-code platforms allow you to create and deploy applications in record time.
Examples of tasks
For lawyers
Quickly create a bot to collect primary data from customers (for example, to formalize contracts or file lawsuits).
For HR
Launch an automatic time tracking system or calculate vacation pay in a few hours.
In addition, updates and improvements to applications on low-code platforms occur instantly, which allows you to quickly respond to changes in legislation or internal processes of the company.
3. Savings on development and support
Boxed solutions often require significant investments not only at the purchase stage, but also during operation. Improvements, integration with other systems, and technical support can cost a lot.
Low-code platforms significantly reduce these costs.
Examples of savings
For lawyers
Create a document designer yourself, without involving programmers. This eliminates errors that may occur when transferring tasks to developers.
For HR
Set up a bot to automate answering employee questions without spending money on expensive CRM systems.
4. Integration with other systems
Legal and HR processes often require interaction with various systems: CRM, accounting programs, databases, and other tools.
Low-code platforms offer built-in capabilities for integration with external services.
Examples of integrations
For lawyers
Connect the document designer to CRM to automatically fill in templates with data from the system.
For HR
Set up synchronization of the chatbot with HR software to automatically update employee data.
5. Increase employee productivity and engagement
One of the key advantages of low-code platforms is the ability to involve employees in the automation process.
Examples of tasks
For lawyers
Create a system for recording cases and tasks that will automatically remind you of the deadlines for filing documents or court sessions.
For HR
Develop a bot to conduct employee surveys to collect feedback and improve the corporate culture.
