Does this sound familiar? A coworker has a terrific, innovative idea regarding process optimization, product improvement or even a totally new, disruptive product or service. But there's no one to program the software. Either it's too much work or there's not enough capacity available. This is precisely where low-code/no-code platforms like Microsoft Power Platform come into play.
Low-code/no-code platforms make it possible to configure business applications with little or no manually produced source code. So specialized users can implement their ideas and requirements all on their own, without professional programming skills. As a result, IT teams gain more speed for completing digitalization projects.
The idea behind Microsoft Power Platform is this: To enable people to implement their own ideas without any professional programming skills. The goal might be, for instance to expand and optimize their existing solutions or to develop new, separate applications.
Anyone who is familiar with Microsoft Excel formulas and macros can build apps using Microsoft Power Platform. This expands the circle of potential authors and makes it much easier to find people to implement such projects.
Microsoft Power Platform frees up the typically very limited capacity of internal development teams with no need to hire external staff. When specialized departments realize their projects on their own, this also eliminates the need to translate specialized requirements for the developer. This way, the plans can be implemented faster and more accurately. Ultimately, this produces better results.
The professional structures and functions of Power Platform also strengthen data loss protection. For instance, compliance requirements can be better met than with the use of products outside the company's IT.
Microsoft Power Platform is even great for professional developers. For instance, it lets them create apps at high speed. So requirements can often be implemented faster than with conventional development methods. In addition, professional developers and specialized departments work in mixed teams, achieving impressive results in very little time. It's important to note: The usual concepts of application lifecycle management such as
are also fully supported by Power Platform
Microsoft Power Platform comprises four core components:
Oftentimes, the supplied components are not enough to achieve the desired functionality on their own. That's when connections to ERP, CRM or other productivity systems are required. Microsoft Power Platform boasts a number of pre-built connectors for doing just this. This makes integrating third-party systems much easier.
