Overall Satisfaction with PowerApps

We utilize the PowerApps platform to run a built-in-house application for inventory control. The tool is built on the M365 cloud platform to connect seamlessly to our databases as well as to be available across all of our facilities without the need for heavy infrastructure support. The business's workflows and Standard Operating Procedures are always changing, with PowerApps we can control the nuances and change management in-house vs waiting for an external firm to make the necessary changes on their development roadmap. PowerApps has solved the problem of waiting on vendors, leaning out infrastructure requirements, and bringing in efficiencies for inventory control through with PowerApps automation vs paper and pen model. The tool requires little support and little change, it has really been a game-changer for a start-up company in growth mode.

PowerApps does one thing very well, whereas other platforms are mediocre. There is much more customization possible for your in-house workflows that you can build yourself vs using NetSuite engineers to build it for you.
