"Licensing Headaches and Cryptic Errors Make Power Automate Harder Than It Should Be"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Microsoft Power Automate?

Power Automate is great because it handles the boring, repetitive tasks so people can focus on more interesting work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Power Automate?

The licensing is a total headache—trying to figure out which "premium" connector costs extra can feel like a trap.

Also, the error messages are often cryptic, leaving you to play detective when a simple flow randomly breaks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
