Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Power Automate

I currently use this to send out automated emails for quality assurance record entry and other types of automated emails. I primarily use this for end-users to view quality assurance results. The problem that this problem helps with is emailing out in masses automatically instead of me having to do it. I also have a workflow built that emails out with attachments to help keep communication as up-to-date as possible.

Pros

  • Send automated emails
  • Notifies colleagues / managers when records have been entered.

Cons

  • Sometimes I have to really research how to do something in power automate. It's great, but it would be better if it could be even more user friendly
  • Is there something other than forums to learn how to do certain things in power automate?
  • Sending emails
  • It has simplified a lot of our processes by creating an automated email process.
  • It has allowed for better communication across all teams.

Do you think Microsoft Power Automate delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Microsoft Power Automate's feature set?

Yes

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

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Microsoft Power Automate go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Microsoft Power Automate again?

Yes

It's well suited for sending out automated emails or receipts of records entered. This has been extremely useful for our quality assurance initiative for keeping track of each QA and allowing each colleague an emailed / time-stamped receipt of their findings for review. It also has worked well for communication purposes, to send out emails to various teams with attachments and for them to go back and search through SharePoint instead of rummaging through their email trying to find something.

Using Microsoft Power Automate

4 - N/A
1 - Currently just me that I am aware of. We have a few people that have 'messed around' with it, but we do not have a designated person to reach out to for questions on it that I am aware of.
  • email notification
  • trigger events
  • information sharing
  • pull data automatically
  • send confirmations
  • send authorizations per approvals
  • confirmation of completed projects to requestors
  • Integration with other PM platforms - such as ASANA
  • Request notifications
I do not have the authority to make that decision for my company.

Evaluating Microsoft Power Automate and Competitors

  • Ease of Use
  • Other
I was not involved in the purchasing of MS Power Automate, so I couldn't say what were the most important factors. I'm sure cost and ease of use are two big ones to consider.
I was not involved in the selection process to purchase this product.
