Alkmaar, October 1, 2024—Today, Low-code platform Betty Blocks launches Betty Blocks Embedded, a low-code suite that enhances other software solutions with full customization capabilities. Betty Blocks Embedded, a leading low-code platform, gives software vendors the native tooling to offer modern features rapidly. By leveraging Betty Blocks Embedded, software vendors are able to create tailor-made and customizable solutions for their clients that are impervious to the inflexibility of standardized software.
The launch of Betty Blocks Embedded is a response to the proliferation of software vendors struggling to fill in the feature gaps that occur on their platforms as technology develops faster and clients push for more personalized and bespoke experiences. Betty Blocks Embedded is a timely solution to these challenges, offering a fresh perspective on standardized software by adding low-code flexibility on three different layers: Platforms can leverage Betty Blocks Embedded to rapidly fill feature gaps with customizable solutions, implement a low-code development module that feels native to their platform, and a marketplace where custom solutions - build by the software vendor or their partners - can be offered to customers.
Betty Blocks Embedded for increased competitiveness
Smaller vendors are being put in a tight position, fighting for scraps of market share while more prominent platforms take the entire pie. Lack of visibility, lack of resources, and lack of development manpower are the three most common issues faced by vendors who try to outpace the competition. Betty Blocks Embedded's core components are designed to help platform vendors speed up their momentum and stay ahead of the curve.
- Master templates: Create one master template for your applications, extensions, and add-ons. This supports client-side customization while centralizing maintenance efforts. Any core changes are deployed from the master template, giving customers the flexibility to add customizations as they see fit.
- Block Store reusability: Offer your client base a wide selection of custom components that can be installed directly as no-code building blocks. Customers can reuse these blocks to create add-ons to any feature supported by your platform instantly. This gives vendors a high level of consistency and control of the customization efforts carried out by the customer.
- Production environment: Be in full control of how and where your custom solutions are deployed. With Betty Blocks, we give vendors the option to host their low-code applications in public and private cloud environments.
- Governance: Role-based access controls are vital to maintaining the integrity and consistency of the custom-built solutions. Betty Blocks gives vendors a tight grip on authorizations and permissions through governance settings, SSO, and 2FA features, which can be configured directly from the Betty Blocks Embedded environment.
Add customization while keeping the core clean
Betty Blocks Embedded’s technology sets the stage for rapidly bridging the feature gaps experienced within standardized platforms. Often, existing systems struggle to extend their offering with customizable features because the platform was not built with customization in mind. Even in cases where it is possible to extend their features, it’s often a lengthy process that takes away from the core function of what the platform is meant for.
Betty Blocks Embedded helps software vendors create modern and customizable functionalities to rapidly improve their offerings without the need to hire more expensive development expertise. By building feature gaps on the Betty Blocks platform and offering them as a native part of the vendor’s platform, they keep the core clean and are able to compete with the feature richness of more prominent vendors. By adding the low-code layer on top of standardized software solutions, vendors immediately create a level of customization that wasn’t possible before. The ability to make these custom features feel like a native part of the vendor’s offering is what really makes this a unique proposition that drives value for vendors, partners, and customers.
Offer low-code development capabilities directly from within the software solution
Without low-code, feature gaps such as missing API integrations, automation tools, or even mobile application support need to be created directly in the platform's codebase. Whenever a platform update is deployed, custom solutions risk breaking or becoming incompatible overnight, causing development teams to become bogged down instantly with a mountain of work. When organizations are faced with platform limitations like these, their ability to stay agile and competitive is severely hampered, which also drastically decreases customer satisfaction.
Betty Blocks Embedded empowers customers and partners of software solutions to pursue a new way of building bespoke software together without needing to uproot their current tech stack. By leveraging the low-code development module and built-in components, which consist of templates, data models, actions, and connectors, customers and partners can rapidly create customizable applications That won’t break with any update or bog down the software due to changing the codebase.
Showcase your offering in a marketplace
Betty Blocks Embedded is carefully designed to support platform vendors of all sizes and expertise in their pursuit of digital excellence. These days, every business is digital, every business relies on software, and every use case is as unique as the business that seeks to build it. What Betty Blocks Embedded offers is the robustness to build envelope-pushing solutions with governance in mind consistently. By creating a marketplace with Betty Blocks Embedded, vendors are able to give their customers instant access to the bespoke custom solutions that they have made with Betty Blocks. This gives customers the autonomy they seek to pick and choose the extensions that align with their product lines while allowing vendors to maintain a concise overview of the developed applications.
Whether you are looking to add customer-facing portals to your commercial products or add custom security features to your platform, Betty Blocks Embedded has pre-built templates ready to lay the brickwork for custom applications. Low-code capabilities allow developers to build a diverse portfolio of robust solutions while maintaining them in the cloud-based environment of the Betty Blocks platform. Diversifying your product offerings can engage new client relationships and open up unexplored revenue streams.
