Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Power Automate

We currently use Power Automate to streamline everyday tasks, improve workforce productivity, automate tasks across business system, increase employee satisfaction and reduce human error. Save time with decision-making by using predefined templates to create a flow. All users are able to access power automate anywher and there have been numerous uses by all levels of employees.

Pros

  • Streamline everyday tasks.
  • Automate repetitive tasks across business systems.
  • Increase employee satisfaction and reduce human error.

Cons

  • Some advance functionality is paywalled.
  • Mobile app lacks several features.
  • Ease of use.
  • Availability to our current m365 licenses.
  • We cut out zoho forms using power automate and ms forms.
We are just touching on this now as our implementation is over ten years old.
We migrated from Flow. They only other we have used is Sharepoint workflows and Power Automate is miles ahead of that.

Did Microsoft Power Automate live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Microsoft Power Automate go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Power Automate again?

Yes

Automating repetitive tasks is where Power Automate really shines. We also tend to use Power Automate to gather employee satisfaction surveys and other employee feedback tying into integrations with Microsoft Forms. Power Automation is not as suited to cases where large amounts of robotic process automation are necessary. Other than that, everything tends to work as advertised.

Using Microsoft Power Automate

10 - Form automation and automating desktop tasks.
1 - Basic problem solving and logic skills. Power Automate is intuitive and easy to use.
  • Form automation
  • Data entry and processing
  • Workflows and approvals
  • Approving new hires and terminations
  • Automating HR processes
  • Automating IT processes
  • Approvals and signatures
  • Automating email organization
Very user friendly and intuitive. Nearly everyone can make use of it.

Evaluating Microsoft Power Automate and Competitors

  • Cloud Solutions
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
Ease of use is the most important factor. Everyone has a license and if its too difficult to use, they won't use it.
Would not change a thing.
