Smart automation for your work process
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Microsoft Power Automate from other similar products?
Microsoft not only designed Power Automate to ease the work of users by automating their task but as well as to coordinate perfectly with other tools such as SharePoint, PowerApps, and Power BI.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It works well with the other products I used which are PowerApps and Power BI, Power Automate comes in to play by filling the gap (features) that the two separate software are missing. For example is that I want to refresh my Power BI dataset when a user fills out the survey at PowerApps, this is where the automation from Power Automate comes into play.
What do you dislike most about this product?
You will spend most of your time searching at Power Automate community for an answer to your question since the documentation isn't enough and I think the community is not large enough (compared with Power BI). For example if you want to check what is the fastest way to read at an excel then transfer it to a database like SQL Server then you will have hard time in finding it since Microsoft doesn't officially release how a certain process works. What I tried now is that the fastest way is to convert it to JSON, other solutions/work arounds doesn't work for me.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I will definitely recommend this product since it's easy to use and the value it provide to the business is relatively large.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Trustworthy
- Efficient Service
