Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the back end."
"Microsoft PowerApps's most valuable features we found are that it's very similar to the other Microsoft products, you can do the basic automation quite quickly. The interface is similar to the other Microsoft products which makes it easy to navigate around because we are used to Microsoft products."
"The tool helps simplify tasks like conference room bookings, onboarding new employees, managing documentation processes, or handling form submissions; PowerOps can adapt to various use cases. Its ability to develop templates and seamlessly integrate data makes it a valuable tool. It can be integrated with Microsoft Copilot."
"It's a very workable solution because it's an automated way of making applications. You have a template, you have the application know-how,"
"If you want something that you can use for cellphones, multiple tablets, and things like that, you can use PowerApps for the front end. It gathers all the information, and the information goes somewhere else."
"Overall, the tool is very democratic. It's easy for anyone to use. You don't have to be a professional or well-versed in technology."
"It offers integration with several Microsoft products, including SharePoint and Outlook, in my opinion, is a huge plus."
"The solution is excellent at figuring how to build an application in three months. It makes it very quick and easy."
"For all no-code platforms that let you create a front end, you can click together something very quick."
"I would like to see full integration with AI."
"In many cases, they make choices where flexibility is a little bit degraded, but if you leave everything open and the flexibility is great then the usability is a little bit less."
"What I find lacking in the software is its ability to query the database."
"The solution is evolving very fast and every month new features are introduced. Sometimes it's difficult to catch up with all the evolution that's happening. I had to focus on Power BI for a while and left PowerApps at the side for a couple of months and when I came back, it had changed its interface and moved components around."
"The notion people have is that no code equals no knowledge, and that's simply not true. Even though you don't have to write codes, you still have to know what you're doing."
"In my experience, the solution's deployment can be tricky."
"PowerApps is still a bit new compared to a slightly more mature product such as OutSystems."
"The user interface is pretty good, although it is a little bit clunky and can be improved."
"The solution needs a bit more refinement in general."
"The solution must provide more integration with third-party applications."
"The solution could improve by having more connectors for different solutions in a way to create custom connectors. Additionally, they should make HTTP Connectors free again because it was not always a premium feature. These HTTP connectors allow you to send API requests which can be important."
