The No-Code myth: when to use it (and when to run)

Fabien Rivalan

No-Code is fantastic for an MVP. But for your core business, it's a time bomb. Anatomy of a hype.

Bubble, Webflow, Airtable… These tools are magical. You can build an Airbnb clone in a weekend.

But what happens when you have 10,000 users? When you need a specific feature the tool doesn't support?

The glass ceiling

No-Code has a very low glass ceiling in terms of performance and logical complexity. Use it to validate an idea. Switch to "real" code to build a company.

The real test: sensitive data

If you handle data subject to the Swiss FADP, tax secrecy or medical secrecy, forget public No-Code. You have no control over the infrastructure, no mastery of encryption, no guarantee of Swiss data residency. That's a deal-breaker.
