Accelerate your Business Apps with Microsoft Powerapps

The way we do function today is entirely different than the days before mobile devices were introduced. Now most of the work happens on our mobile phones, tablets and laptops wherever we go: on manufacturing floors, in aeroplanes or at client meetings. The revolution of mobile, together with nearly limitless compute, and data in the cloud, has changed our professional experience.

And yet, the applications we use to do business have been slow to keep pace with staff demand. While enterprises are progressively turning to SaaS solutions for specific scenarios such as CRM, travel and HR, consuming services like Microsoft Dynamics, Concur or Workday, most business applications scenarios stay locked on-premises, dependent on corporate linked PCs. Too often, they’re not optimised for mobile devices, not easily integrated with other services, and not available when and where individuals need them most – on the device they want to use at that moment. The business application category endures lagging user app scenarios in terms of richness and ubiquity.

PowerApps is an enterprise service to app developers all over the world. You can communicate, develop and share company applications with your team on any device (Mobile, Laptop, Tab). Microsoft PowerApps has been launched by Microsoft Windows Azure to construct apps on all platforms such as Windows, iOS and Android mobile phones. It enables us to create a custom app, too.

It's a (SAS) Software as a Service solution that enables businesses to create company applications quickly and effectively. In PowerApps, you can automatically generate an app, customise it, create an app from templates, and share and operate the applications. Here, others also create and share their applications with you.

PowerApps will dramatically speed up how business applications are made, decreasing time to solution from weeks or months to minutes and authorising a new type of app creators. It balances power among IT and business operators, arming those closest to business requirements with tools and services not just to visualise but also implement the solution.  It changes what has been for decades a set of scenarios that typically only run on-premises with PCs to being centred in the cloud and delivered mobile-first.
