Microsoft Power Platform
Analyse data, build solutions, automate processes, and create virtual agents.
Innovate quickly and easily using a single platform that connects your data, automates workflows, and leverages the power of artificial intelligence. The Microsoft Power Platform is a set of robust solutions that allow your people to build apps using no-code to low-code technology. It enables your business to streamline and automate processes without relying heavily on your IT, and enables you to maximise your Office 365 subscription.
The Power Platform Components
Microsoft Power Platform is the collective name of these powerful products designed to democratise application development.
Empower your users to build web and mobile applications, even without writing codes rapidly. Power Apps allow your people to connect your data, apply the business logic, and design the user interface to quickly develop custom apps that your business currently needs, without costly IT development projects.
Automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks, simplify workflows, and optimise your business processes with Power Automate (formerly known as Microsoft Flow). It is the top business process management solution of choice by many new BPM users with its easy to use process automation templates.
Enable your users with the ability to interact and interrogate your business data easily. Power BI makes that possible with its self-service enterprise business intelligence platform. It provides you with rich data visualisation and reporting, allowing you to make informed decisions quickly and confidently.
Build an AI-driven, conversational agent that can assist your clients or respond to inquiries the natural way. Power Virtual Agents allow your users to build no-code to low-code chatbots so you can free up your people from responding to repetitive questions or performing recurring administrative tasks.
