It tends also to reduce costs of a company and so increase its competitive performances. And so, even if some people tends to claim that end-user development is not necessary and costs more money than it permits to save it. Introduction Nowadays, the importance of end-user development has been proved in many ways by examining different cases in different companies within their information systems departments using end-user development. However, sometimes, we see that information systems departments argue that end-user development is not necessary, and implies more disadvantages than it brings advantages for companies. Yet, we will see that is statement of things is completely false, because even if some problems or boundaries can appear in end-user development, it is actually not end-user development which is at the origin of hypothetical problems. Indeed end-user development provides many different benefits for the end-users, for the information system department and for the wellbeing of the company more generally. These benefits are quite important and permit the good working and making of the applications and tools given for end-user development and also it responds to the mainly reasons why there is still a growth a end-user development – which tends to appear more and more essential. Discussion The main problems which appear with end-user development can not lead to a judgment whereas end-user development could be considered as a waste of time. In fact, if the end-user development failed because of non-updated information, or if these information within the data are not truly reliable, or even if the system have been corrupted as a result of its End-user computing is the computing technique in which software developers develop the software in such a way that the end-users can also perform the computing on the software. This computing can be partially or fully computing. This depends on the programmer what kind of access is given to the end-user for end-user computing. The programmers design the software in such a way that the end-user can easily compute the different kind of operations within the software. What is an example of end-user computing?Google Analytics is the best example of end-user computing. Google Analytics is developed by the programmers of the Google but Google Analytics works in such a way that any end-user can simply log into the system and then can compute and can check that what kind of traffic is coming on their website. Figure: What is End-user computing – Examples and TypesHere, in this example, this analytics shows that bounce rate is 76%. It means that 76% of visitors are viewing only one page of the website. Similarly, 24% of visitors are viewing the more than one page of the website. Types of end-user computingThere are many kinds of end-user computing. Some of the end-user computing are mentioned below;
Analytics in end-user computingDifferent kind of analytics can be designed, according to the requirements of end-user. Business rules in end-user computingSuppose we are developing a software for a company and the company wants to increase its business with the help of this software then we need to develop the software in such a way that it can facilitate the business. Scripts in end-user computingDifferent kinds of scripts were given to the end-user so that they can perform the computing without knowing about the script programming. Visual programming in end-user computingVisual programming is the programming technique in which different tools allows the user to run the program by just providing the visuals like menus icons and buttons and etc. This is very helpful for the end-user to perform end-user computing. Artificial intelligence in end-user computingArtificial intelligence plays a very important role in end-user computing. Softwares try to detect the things automatically to help the end-user. Advantages of End-user computingThere are many Advantages of End-user computing. Some of the advantages are mentioned below.
