A platform with distinct roles
Choose the building blocksyour process needs.
| Capability | The role it can play | A useful question |
|---|---|---|
| Power Apps | An application experience for internal users and their business records. | Which task should become easier to complete? |
| Power Automate | A workflow connecting events, decisions and actions. | What should happen next, and who handles an exception? |
| Power Pages | A connected website for external audiences. | Which records can this customer or partner access? |
| Dataverse | A shared model for business records, relationships and rules. | Which information should different applications use consistently? |
| Copilot Studio | Agents connected with knowledge, tools and user channels. | What is the agent’s job, and how will we evaluate it? |
| Power BI | A visual reporting experience around business information. | Which decision should the report help someone make? |
From first app to wider adoption
Give good ideasa dependable foundation.
A low-code platform makes it easier to create applications, but the business still needs to decide which problems deserve attention. Start with a repeatable process, clear users and information the team can trust.
Prototype the important tasks with those users, then review the data and integration design. A polished interface is useful only when the records, permissions and handovers behind it behave as expected.
As the number of applications grows, shared standards become more valuable. Give each production app an owner, define environments and release practices, and establish how support and new requests are handled. This helps useful departmental ideas become capabilities the wider organisation can rely on.
