Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, OutSystems and others in Rapid Application Development Software."The security is the most valuable feature, in particular, the way I can give different access to different areas to different people, so you can really fine-tune access for different users."
"It’s a stable product."
"Of all of the solutions I evaluated, it was the easiest to use and deploy."
"Ability to generate QR codes and scan barcodes."
"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,"
"In Microsoft PowerApps the most valuable features are the fully customizable design that we can control everything that we would like to control. For example, the integration between Microsoft and third-party services through pre-built connectors, and the functionality to create custom connectors."
"When I am developing any user UI, it gives me complete flexibility. I can manage in any way I want."
"The solution allows you to use data to create excellent UI and quickly deliver an app. It speeds up production time."
"The solution is very straightforward. Its context is obvious and everything is easy to understand."
"The user interface for the systems that you build can use some improvement because as it is now, you have to do a lot of HTML and CSS to make it look modern."
"I’d need more time with it. As of now, I can’t think of an area for improvement."
"The area where this product can be improved is the documentation. When we get stuck it's with the documentation when we are not able to find the codes we need."
"One of the major problems with it is what PowerApps calls the delegation warning. Regardless of what platform, data source, et cetera, that you're using, you can't retrieve more than 2000 records."
"We would like to see some improvement in the cost of the solution when an organization has a more complex network structure. The advanced connectors are very expensive, which discourages our customers from implementing it."
"Installation and integration could be improved."
"The solution needs a bit more refinement in general."
"There is room for improvement in error handling and debugging."
"The editor in the Web browser could be improved because it can be difficult to implement the commands in the buttons."
