What is the Power Platform?
Power Apps
PowerApps is a no-code / low code environment where you build mobile-friendly business apps. These apps connect to hundreds of popular third party systems and even live in other Microsoft’s business applications, such as Teams.
Power BI
Power BI is Microsoft’s business analytics service. It provides real-time insights from data, dynamic or not, and it allows you to create rich visuals and highly personalised reports on mobile and desktop.
Power Automate
Power Automate is a workflow automation toolset. It allows you to automate business processes through templates, triggers, alerts, and RPA (Robotic Process Automation). All this can be done quickly and with no coding.
Power Virtual Agents
Power Virtual Agents is a guided, no-code graphical interface where you easily create intelligent bots. These AI-powered capabilities help you deliver personalized bot conversations to resolve customer issues and automate common questions.
What can the Power Platform do for you?
Got an idea to improve a process? Maybe it can be solved with an app. Power Apps enables a broad range of app scenarios that can be created to bring digital transformation to manual and outdated processes.
You have control how your app looks and works. Customise every detail of your app for specific tasks and roles. Create apps for any device that uses a wide variety of controls including cameras and location, or start from a sample app showcasing common business scenarios, like expense reporting or site inspections.
Does your organisation capture data but you have NO IDEA what do it with it? Maybe you want an interactive way to use your data that is accessible from any device. Apps can be built on top of your existing data source using pre existing connectors, making it easy to navigate.
Unlock your data, integrate your forms, views, charts, and embed your reports or dashboards to create easy to use low-code websites for your external users.
Nowhere to store your data? Or is it living in excel? Use the built-in Common Data Service to store data and model processes and business logic. Take advantage of more than 200 connectors to integrate data and systems you already use. Extend Power Apps further as a professional developer with custom connectors.
