Microsoft Power Automate Reviews

We use Microsoft Power Automate to automate everything, such as mailing, gathering data from a web scraping, and scheduling time.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Power Automate are the connectors, such as loops, which make things easier.

I have been using Microsoft Power Automate for one year.

Microsoft Power Automate is stable.

We have five people in my organization using Microsoft Power Automate.

I rate the technical support from Microsoft Power Automate a four out of five.

I rate the initial setup from Microsoft Power Automate a five out of five. The process took us approximately one day.

I rate the return on investment from Microsoft Power Automate a four out of five.

With our Microsoft Office 365 license, we are able to use Microsoft Power Automate.

I rate Microsoft Power Automate an eight out of ten.

We use it for office automation.

It is quick, so I'm quite happy with it. It is also easy to use.

It lacks a lot of functionality that other tools have. There should be queue management, and there should also be the capability to deal with a little bit more complex automation. If it had queue support and if it was capable of doing more complex automation, it would be a much better tool.

In terms of performance, it is a little bit slower with calculations than a typical Excel Macro, for example.

I have been using this solution for about six months.

It is a very stable product.

It is already implemented company-wide, so we don't have to scale it too much. It already has lots of functionality built-in.

I haven't used their support.

I also work with UiPath, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere. Functionality-wise, Blue Prism and Power Automate are two completely different tools, but they share the common RPA target.

It was easy. It was already in the company when I joined.

We are using the free version of Power Automate.

I would rate it a six out of ten.

The use cases include Power Apps and Power Automate. We have had use cases for scheduling meetings. We have also used it for HR onboarding solutions where document verification was done by using Power Apps and Power Automate.

I have sold both cloud-based and on-premises solutions.

It has a gamut of things. Power Automate is easy to configure. It is more for a citizen developer. It is low code/no code. It is one of the easiest tools when it comes to configuration. By default, we have a lot of Microsoft products on our laptops or desktops. So, it is very easy to configure the remaining products.

The OCR part or scanning of documents is missing.

I have been selling it for the past one and a half years.

It is stable.

I am definitely satisfied with their support.

Its initial setup is straightforward. It is very easy to set up.

The number of people required depends on the size of the project. It depends on how big a project is and what is the use case. It could be just a two-member team, and it could also be a ten-member team. It depends on the number of use cases that have to be automated.

Its licensing is flexible.

Power Automate is doing really well. It is a good solution. I would recommend it, but it also depends on a client's requirement.

I would rate it a seven out of 10.

The most valuable feature is how much you can do with this solution.

Power Automate is too complicated - it forces you to go through extra tasks instead of streamlining your workflow. In the next release, I would like InfoPath to be re-included.

Tech support is hit and miss.

The setup is complex - it's confusing for IT workers, let alone ordinary users.

Power Automate is a separate license, so make sure that if you implement it, you have the appropriate license for all the users who will use it. 

I would rate this solution as seven out of ten.

We use the solution as a business process automation tool. It allows one to automate an application in his organization. 

The solution is not only meant for SharePoint, but for everything.  It has millions of connectors. The best feature of the tool is that it is generic, so it allows one to do as he wishes. He can obtain data from Twitter and put it on his SQL Server. He can obtain data from WordPress and connect it with IBM. 

The solution could have more integration with different platforms. 

The licensing price is too high. 

Microsoft Power Automate has only been released recently, so I have been using it for the past three or four years. 

The solution is certainly stable. 

The solution is definitely scalable. 

Technical support is very nice. It's fast. 

As the solution is cloud-based, it does not require installation. 

The solution does not require deployment, but a team is needed for development and this will vary with the scope of the project. Every site would require around eight to ten people. 

The licensing price should be more cost-effective. 

As we are talking about a Microsoft product, the licensing can be purchased on a monthly or yearly basis. 

The solution is both cloud-based and on-premises. 

We are consultants of Power Automate. We do not use the solution ourselves. 

So far, we have handled 14 or 15 projects and are working on one at present. 

I would recommend the solution to others. 

I rate Microsoft Power Automate as an eight out of ten. 

We have the latest version installed. 

I like the scalability option and the simplicity, the way we can really use the interface to easily scale up. 

There should be more transparency when it comes to which features accompany the pricing, as there appear to be hidden features of which I am not aware. 

There are factors we must consider when scaling up, such as whether we are using full or partial features. Were I to buy an additional premium, another license, I would lack clarity what I could expect to get in exchange or whether the features would help me to scale up. This is why better transparency is important. 

Scalability can be improved and this is why it is key to know how the features can be integrated into the scalable solution.

I've been using Microsoft Power Automate for the past six months or so.

The ability to know how the various features can be integrated into the solution would improve scalability. 

I have not had occasion to contact technical support, so I am not in a position to comment on it. 

Installation was pretty easy, as we handled it through our office, making use of our office license.

There should be increased transparency about which features attend the pricing. 

We are customers of Microsoft.

There are more than 100 users making use of the solution in our company. 

I would definitely recommend this product to others for its ease-of-use. 

I rate Microsoft Power Automate as an eight out of ten. 

We are system integrators so we provide this solution and deal with the automation for our clients. Power Automate is mainly suitable for small and medium size companies. 

Power Automate is good for automation. For example, if a client requires a format for invoices, we set up the module - invoice number, container, quantity, product details. After that, whenever we load bulk invoices, it automatically identifies the invoice format and accepts the data. This is one of the best features of the product.

Power Automate is not suitable for connecting other applications like browsers and third party applications and there are a few features not available on this solution. They are working on improving that. Power Automate cannot handle high end projects and, from a developer's perspective, it's a little difficult for enterprise size companies. 

We are partners with Microsoft and I'm a technology lead.

It's a reasonably stable product but because it's a new tool they need to keep working on it. If you're a small setup, and you need it for Excel or Word or some desktop kind of access, it will be stable. But if you're looking for web automation it's not currently suitable.

This is a scalable solution. 

We have tried to contact technical support many times, but there is no way to contact or reach out to the Microsoft team. We recently had many questions on Power Automate so I tried the Winautomation but there are many activities that are missing and there are bugs in it. We also had an issue with the ongoing live projects. We developed the project in Winautomation and they were later converted into Power Automate. Winautomation isn't working so we need to migrate all the projects which is a complicated process and requires reworking. We can't get any help from them and that's a problem. 

It's very easy to set up because it only requires downloading one xFi file from Power Automate. It then automatically connects with an email account and the solution is automatically synced with that email account. From the customer's perspective, there is no maintenance. As the service provider, whenever new features are included, we update it for our clients.  

Compared to other automation tools, Power Automate is very cheap although the price has increased recently. 

We also integrate UiPath for our clients. This solution offers regular updates and is more mature than Power Automate. Each month they release a new module. Initially, they were only accessing desktop and web applications, Word and Outlook, those kind of things. Nowadays, UiPath has all the features connected to the cloud, whether it's Azure or Google. They are trying to automate everything and they're working on all this because of AI. When choosing a product for our clients, we take numerous variables into account. If you're offering all the features in your tool and the cost is reasonable, we're likely to choose it.

I'm not sure I would recommend this product now, perhaps in a year or two when the solution is more stable. We struggled with a project recently and that was difficult.  

I rate the solution a five out of 10. 

We primarily use the solution for our customers, to automate fields, for example.

The solution integrates well with Microsoft Office and other Microsoft solutions.

The solution offers pretty good automation capabilities.

The code of the product is very good. 

The initial setup was quite simple. We didn't have any trouble with the process.

The solution has been very stable so far.

Technical support is available regionally and it's quite good.

I need to have more integration capabilities from this solution. It's limiting us right now. Other solutions on the market are better in this regard. They need to step up and improve this aspect in future releases. 

The stability is good. We haven't really had any issues with the performance. I don't recall dealing with bugs or glitches. I don't recall it crashing or freezing. 

We've dealt with technical support in the past. We don't have local support, however, we do have access to regional support. It's good. I'd say that we are happy with the level of support on offer. 

We have experience in Microsoft Power Automate, however, we work with other solutions around the RPA - such as Micro Focus.

Overall, we found the solution to be very straightforward. It wasn't difficult or complex. In our case, it was easy. A company should have too much trouble handling the implementation process. 

We are partners with Microsoft.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We're quite happy with the product right now.

I'm using it for internal purposes at the moment. We are a consulting company and we are exploring goals with the option of implementing automation for our clients.

Currently, I am assessing Microsoft Power Automate, comparing it with UiPath to see if it's good enough for our clients and for our purpose.

We plan to use this solution for getting information from one application to another, for producing sheets and text files for Power BI, and also for integration and displaying dashboards and business intelligence for the business. It will also be used for invoicing and notifications — mainly business processes in general.

Microsoft Power Automate is very easy to use. It's very complete with a lot of activities available. It's intuitive and it seems very stable. 

I was using this solution when it was called Microsoft Flow. Currently, I've been evaluating it for the last two weeks. 

This solution is very stable. 

I can't comment on the scalability yet as I haven't tried to scale it yet. Still, I know it will be scalable because it's in the DNA of the project. 

I haven't had to contact technical support as of yet. 

The initial setup was very straightforward. It only took five to ten minutes to get it up and running. 

I installed this solution by myself. 

Microsoft Power Automate is expensive. The full license is quite expensive. 

I would absolutely recommend this solution to others. At this point in time, I would give it a rating of eight out of ten. 

We are using it to trigger web service calls and gather data. There are some companies in Turkey and Sweden that are using Power Automate.

It is a very useful solution. You don't need to create an infrastructure in your environment just for triggers or executions. You don't need to invest in the infrastructure. 

With Power Automate, we can call or trigger custom web services and routines. We are also using the flow for gathering data from Microsoft Dynamics.

Sometimes, Microsoft changes the game rules, and the free tools are no longer free, which makes it too hard to explain to customers. It is a SaaS service, so the cost is calculated based on the execution hours. However, we don't know the background of this cost because we cannot touch the infrastructure. They can be more open to developers or customers about this. The infrastructure part must be open for the customers.

We have been using this solution for two years.

It is scalable.

Technical support depends on the type of partner agreement. We have a premium agreement with Microsoft, so there is no problem with support operations. For support for any Microsoft product, such as Dynamics, Azure, or Power Automate, we can easily talk to their support.

It is very easy to install. It took just one day.

I would rate Microsoft Power Automate a seven out of ten.
