Transform your business with the Power Platform by maximising the value of your data

What is the Power Platform used for? In a nutshell, the Power Platform enables successful businesses to maximise the analytical potential of the data they hold. With the Power Platform from Microsoft, you can accelerate analysis, reduce costs and make informed decisions to digitally transform your organisation, automate processes, and build time-saving apps. 

 

Our Power Platform services help you to understand how your data can help provide simple, easy-to-understand dashboards and reports to ensure your ability to drive improvements and make business-critical decisions based on facts and not assumptions.  

As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, Espria supports businesses of all sizes and sectors to develop applications and reporting structures that are simple to use and solve their most pressing business issues. We also offer Power Platform workshops to help client employees create low-code solutions and applications to empower their business. 

What is the Power Platform?

The Power Platform is a set of services created by Microsoft designed to make better use of an organisation’s data so that it can be used to gain fresh insights and make intelligent, fact-based decisions quickly. Below are the four main components of the Power Platform:

Power Business Intelligence

Understanding the business data you hold is now more critical than ever. Ensure the success of your organisation and gain competitive advantage with our suite of business analytics tools. Power BI is a multi–platform data service combining software, services and apps to help your business understand and use data in the ways that are most beneficial to you, in an easy-to-access way – via a desktop app, an online service or on mobile.

Power Apps

Power Apps are applications which can be accessed or embedded in a variety of locations and provide a user-friendly interface, helping employees easily access your business data, complete forms, raise requests and much more. With best-in-class security and easy integration across different platforms and technologies, Espria can help turn your ideas into reality with cost-effective business solutions.

Power Virtual Agents

Power Virtual Agents can answer general questions or advise on support issues before passing queries over to your (human) in-house support teams for a more personalised customer experience. By providing an immediate response, Virtual Agents can increase customer satisfaction and reduce wait times while giving back valuable time for employees to focus on high-priority issues.
