Many companies have a plethora of different programs and platforms to each solve a problem. This makes work even more difficult and counter-productive because of the time it takes to learn different systems and to switch between them, never mind the money spent.  

With the time it takes to acknowledge a problem, look for something to help you fix it, and implement it, the competitive advantage you could have gotten by responding rapidly to the changing environment is already gone. You can build a functional app in a few days, streamlining processes in an agile, flexible way.  

Many organisations have still not been able to give heavily manual tasks an update. Printing out trees of paper every day for schedules and inventory isn’t necessary when an app is easy to access. It can also automate simple tasks such as submitting expenses or sending teams information updates. 

Power Apps can be shared across the organisation and works on phones or tablets, giving anyone like technicians, stock controllers or salespeople the chance to move around with the information they need with real-time inputs and updates.  

In the past, apps have been costly and slow to build. With Power Apps, it can take a few hours to build and a few days to have it running with minimal cost. It can be used by Developers to extend apps and used by business users to solve challenges. 

PowerApps has been designed with speed of implementation in mind. With a low-code/no-code building environment, it offers many templates and a drag and drop design framework that allows you to work quickly to create it.  

For many organisations that already use Office 365 or Microsoft Dynamics 365, this is a solution that is readily available to use and integrate, depending on your license. Adding to an existing platform, and not adding more third-party solutions will cut costs and extend capability.
