Save time, develop faster, and get a high ROI with Power Apps Premium

As we have explained above, the internal procedures of organizations benefit greatly from the Power Apps Premium tool. For this reason, it has become one of their preferred solutions.

These benefits are reflected in a study commissioned by Microsoft to Forrester Consulting.

Specifically, Forrester interviewed 13 representatives of organizations that have recently invested in Power Apps Premium. What were the conclusions? The benefits of its use are overwhelming:

  • Users saved 250 hours per year. In the third year of adoption, the organization saved more than 1,000,000 hours thanks to the accumulated efficiency of users.
  • Professional developers saw a 50% reduction in application development time. For a company with 200 professional developers, this increase in efficiency is equivalent to adding 100 more developers to meet demand.
  • Forrester estimates that customers recovered their initial investment in just six months. This drove a rapid increase in net profits within three years, culminating in a 206% return on investment (ROI) and $31 million in net present value (NPV).
