“We want to revolutionize the transportation industry—and we want to do it through technology and integrity” – Matt Ziegler, President, ZMac Transportation Solutions
What you’ll learn:
- The issues with ZMac’s previous app such as lack of cybersecurity and marketing
- How low-code development helps businesses create apps faster
- The type of results this newly designed app delivered
The Problem with Traditional App Development
ZMac, a leader in the over-dimensional freight and logistics industries works to match businesses looking to ship goods and the transporters who deliver their products.
To better serve their customers, they decided to create an app that would allow them to quickly generate shipping rates so users could easily see and choose their preferred shipping purveyor.
However, the company they partnered with to create their app used the traditional app development method. This meant that the app would take a long time to be programmed and that implementing fixes would also require a lot of effort from developers.
ZMac needed a fast answer so they could generate more quotes with their app, named ZRate. In the end, they partnered with Impact’s developers and marketers who used the low-code method of app development to solve their problems.

What is Low-Code App Development?
Stakeholders with a limited time frame should consider using the low-code app development method, otherwise known as the Agile model. This process allows developers to create apps six to ten times faster than using a traditional method.
Traditional development methodologies use a linear approach to building apps, meaning code has to be painstakingly written and scanned for errors.
The Agile model takes advantage of low-code programming to quickly build a web application, get stakeholders’ input, user-test it, and rebuild the app. New app iterations based on users’ and stakeholder reviews mean the web application will be optimized with each development phase at a faster pace than traditional coding.
Build a Low-Code App with Impact
