Low code is designed for some specific purposes. If all you need is what it is designed for, that’s totally fine.

The biggest problem is their price and their nature. Many of them are really expensive. And many of them is closed source, which is pretty ironic because everyone is open source nowadays. Except it can be dominate in that area, I don’t think it is valued for a professional developer,

The customisation is poor if you want to do something that is is not designed for, and maintaining is also a nightmare if it is written by a non-disciplined developer.

For quick prototype and you can’t hire skilled developer, yes. But don’t expect you can do too much with that tool and with that person. The biggest bottleneck in software developer is the people not the tech.
