Product Overview

The Microsoft Power Platform, encompassing Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Virtual Agent, and Power BI, is experiencing rapid growth globally. This expansion is driven by organizations adopting low-code/no-code development models to accelerate their digital transformation initiatives. The Power Platform democratizes software development, granting "Citizen access" to a wider range of users within enterprises, enabling them to create the next generation of business productivity software with simplified experiences and minimal training. As a disruptor technology, it empowers 'citizen developers' and enhances the productivity of pro-developers, facilitating IT innovation at the pace demanded by businesses. To support the scale of millions of 'citizen developers,' Microsoft is investing in Power Portals, an emerging product within the Power Platform suite, enabling collaboration with both internal and external users. The aim is to evolve Power Pages into a thriving standalone customer-facing business to drive incremental revenue and value for the Power Platform.
