G2 Crowd’s Workplace Innovation Platform is a new category, necessitating a universal definition to aid in classifying whether or not a software system is considered to be classified within this category. Workplace Innovation Platforms first and foremost allow for collaborative app development by both developers and non-developers. This is possible through the offering of both visual and full-stack development tools.

Workplace Innovation Platforms are designed primarily to help solve workflow issues not addressed by current applications and platforms, often by linking these external “appliance apps” (such as an accounting system, etc.) to the main workflow system. User-friendliness is a hugely important criterion within this category, as both developers and less tech-savvy individuals are able to contribute to the creation of a workplace innovation platform.
