What Is Power Platform?
Microsoft Power Platform is becoming increasingly present in the daily operations of businesses. This is due not only to its ease of use but also to its ability to create business or enterprise applications without the need for complex coding. These tools allow for rapid implementation of large-scale activities, automating and enhancing business strategies.
With Power Platform, you can ensure data security, compliant app management, and simultaneous access to information across all of your organization’s platforms. According to Microsoft itself, the tool “combines low-code app development, workflow automation, AI-powered bots, and data analysis with broad connectivity—all designed to work seamlessly with cloud services.”
The Power Platform suite includes: Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, and Copilot Studio. Each of these solutions addresses a specific business need and, together, they empower companies to analyze data, solve problems, and streamline processes through automation.
Overview of Core Tools:
Power Apps, Power Pages, and Power Automate focus on app creation, website building, and workflow automation, respectively.
Power Apps enables the creation of low-code Microsoft applications—perfect for building forms and simple programs quickly.
Power Pages is a user-friendly tool for creating dynamic websites and pages.
Power Automate automates workflows to eliminate repetitive tasks in the workplace.
These tools offer prebuilt connectors and templates, simplifying everyday use and deployment.
Power BI is Microsoft’s business intelligence platform, allowing users to visualize and share insights from a wide range of data sources.
Power Virtual Agents (now Copilot Studio) allows users to create and deploy chatbots without needing advanced coding skills.

Power Platform in Practice
Using Power Platform is easier and faster than developing a solution from scratch. The platform offers a low-code, intuitive experience with prebuilt templates and drag-and-drop components that simplify development.
To get started with Power Platform:
Validate the required licenses with Microsoft before launching your project.
Access resources via the Microsoft portal, available on mobile and desktop apps by logging in with your credentials.
Define your development needs, clearly mapping out what should be built and how it applies to your business.
Start building your first app, taking full advantage of the platform’s simplicity and capabilities.
Note: After creation, apps are not published to public app stores. Instead, users access them via the Power Apps app on mobile or desktop.
Managing apps after development is straightforward. However, as your data and needs grow, maintenance can become more complex. That’s where a platform specialist can make all the difference—guiding you through sustainable growth and continuous improvement.
