Microsoft Power Apps Reviews & Product Details

What I like most is how quickly you can turn an idea into a working application without writing a lot of code. As someone from a testing background, it helps me build simple utilities, test data tools, and internal workflows on my own instead of depending on developers for every small requirement. The drag-and-drop interface is easy to use, and the integration with services like SharePoint and Excel makes it even more practical. Overall, it's a great low-code platform that significantly speeds up development and improves productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area where Microsoft Power Apps could improve is performance, especially for apps that rely on multiple data sources or complex integrations, as they can sometimes feel slow. The platform is easy to get started with, but building more advanced solutions often requires learning Power Fx and referring to documentation or community forums. Better debugging tools and clearer guidance for advanced scenarios would make the development experience smoother. Apart from that, stronger governance and version management features would help teams avoid duplicate apps and maintain consistency across the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration of all Microsoft tools to automate the process and low code development is the best feature I would say. And faster communication between the apps is what makes the Power Apps more powerful. Coming to the pricing, I feel the majority of the tools are under budget only. The design was also so easy to understand and the support is also very quick. Another added advantage is the copilot auto-fix for any issues that arise in the tool connections and communications, making our work simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Due to high power tools sync and link, the speed gradually reduces when we are dealing with huge data or running which connecting a huge number of tools into one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to build low-code web applications where multiple screens can be customised and created with little to no code. It can be easily connected to data sources like SharePoint lists, and PowerApps automatically imports all the fields from the list along with their data types to create a basic form application. Further enhancements can also be added easily. Once the web application is ready, it can be deployed easily using the one-click publish option. The deployed application works great with zero downtime, and publishing updates is very quick as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No issues so far. I like all the functions, and it’s a very functional application for easily building web applications . The learning curve to use the application is very less, since it has a drag-and-drop based UI with little to no coding Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Microsoft Power Apps to build custom business apps quickly for workflows like approvals, data collection, and tracking without heavy coding. It solves the problem of slow, manual spreadsheet-based workflows. What I like most is its easy-to-build custom apps with low-code, and the drag and drop interface along with prebuilt connectors works like a charm. The prebuilt connectors make it super easy to link my apps to SharePoint, Office 365, Teams, etc., so I can quickly read/write data, send approvals in Teams, and automate workflows. The initial setup was super-easy as it came along with our M365 license, so we did not need to buy a separate tool, which makes the pricing and ROI very attractive for us because we are getting a lot of automation and time savings from something already included in our existing subscription. On top of that, the built-in AI features, like AI Builder and intelligent controls, help us add capabilities such as form processing and predictions without needing data science expertise, which makes our apps smarter and adds even more value to the solution. It's onboarding is automatic as it comes with the M365 license Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A few things can be improved: Performance can be slow with large data sets or complex formulas, and error messages. Performance issues arise when loading large SharePoint lists or SQL data - Screen lags, galleries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does a great job of bridging the gap between business users and app development. We don’t have to be full-stack developers to build apps that are genuinely useful. With minimal coding, business users can create functional applications, which speeds up solutions to real, everyday problems like approvals, tracking, and data collection. Also, since we already work in Teams, SharePoint, and Outlook, Power Apps fits in naturally with what we’re already using. We can pull data from multiple sources and automate workflows without having to do complex integration work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the app is decent overall, its design flexibility isn’t on par with fully custom-built apps. Building highly polished, modern interfaces can take extra effort and sometimes requires workarounds. There’s also a heavy dependency on connectors and backend systems, so if our app relies on SharePoint, APIs, or other connectors, any performance limitations or throttling on those services directly impacts the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Powera pps helps me build a UI easily using a low-code approach. With the interactive editor screens, I can create screens with UI elements like dropdowns and galleries, and connect them to SharePoint lists, Power Automate workflows. This makes it possible to build a working application with little to no programming knowledge.

It also supports integration with Microsoft apps like SharePoint lists. For a basic form application, I can connect a list and Powerapps will automatically build the form UI. After it’s deployed, the cloud-accessible link can be shared with end users so they can use the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The AI builder is not very effective. Even when I provide a prompt with the application requirements, it doesn’t build an application according to those requirements, and a lot of rework is needed. Overall, the AI-assisted app builder still needs significant improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Microsoft Power Apps is how quickly you can turn an idea into a working application without deep coding knowledge. The seamless integration with Microsoft 365 tools like SharePoint, Teams, and Excel makes it very practical for real business use cases. It empowers teams to solve operational problems fast without waiting on long development cycles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Microsoft Power Apps is that performance can sometimes lag when apps become complex or handle large datasets. Customization beyond a certain level can also feel limiting compared to full-code development. Additionally, managing governance and licensing across environments can get confusing for larger teams.

The possibility of creating applications without code and, above all, the new improvements that have been incorporated to enhance applications using code and generative AI in their construction and design. I also value the possibilities I have to create applications based on any data source from other external systems, such as SQL Server, SharePoint, PostgreSQL, all with licenses already included in my Microsoft tenant, with high performance we have never had availability issues with our solutions, so a whole ecosystem with a single payment, it's worth a lot, the community and support it has are greatly appreciated, as well as its user-friendly interface which facilitates learning it in short periods of time.

During update periods, errors often appear in apps, such as filters that stop working, etc., which could show weakness in the process of bringing new features to production that affects others that already existed. They must be more thorough with testing, especially in environments like these on which many companies depend. There are also some areas, such as business rules, that present performance issues when opened in most circumstances. Aside from this, it remains the best low-code platform I have tried.

Power Apps helps me integrate with Excel Online and Power Automate to handle backend-like functionality without much effort. For example, I can use Excel as a database, and then use Power Automate to run backend automation and other workflows very easily.

It’s also great for replicating Google Forms into an app-like UI. It helps with Excel integration too—for instance, a button click can take you directly to a Power Apps page.

And in power apps i like the most is its very easy to design a page or creation of UI is so simple its cost less amount of time its like designing and developing a Ui at same time with less effort Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At times, it has loading issues. Also, whenever we update something in an automated flow, we then need to update and refresh it in the Power Apps connection, and republish the app again. Sometimes, because of the loading problem, changes don’t get saved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very useful in creating functional and simple apps, which is very easy to integrate and work with various Microsoft tools such as excel and power automate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Power Apps works well for simple, straightforward apps, but when it comes to more difficult and complex ones, it can be hard to navigate. For example, if I’m trying to create a replica of Microsoft Forms or Google Forms, there should be an option to choose that I’m building a form (or something similar) to make the process clearer.

Another important limitation is that it’s highly dependent on the Microsoft ecosystem, and integration with external tools is very limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
