Microsoft Power Platform Automation

Written by Digital Business | Jul 21, 2025 1:03:34 PM

According to IDC Europe, 2/3 of organizations across Europe now view automation as a top priority. 

This shift highlights how quickly enterprises need to streamline processes, reduce costs, and enable citizen-led innovation. Microsoft Power Platform has established itself as one of the most effective tools for automating, integrating, and empowering teams without the need for extensive development. Thanks to its low-code capabilities, it enables you to create applications, automate workflows, and analyze data directly within the business.

Current challenges in Spanish organizations

CIOs, CTOs and CISOs of medium and large companies face five recurring challenges today:

Manual and slow processes

Difficult to digitize without large investments.

Dependence on the IT area

To develop or maintain internal solutions.

Data silos

That prevents a complete and agile vision of the organization.

Lack of traceability and control

In critical processes.

Budget limitations

To address custom developments.

This is where solutions like Microsoft Power Platform are positioned as catalysts for efficiency, with a fast adoption curve and a tangible ROI.

What is Microsoft Power Platform, and how does it work?

Microsoft Power Platform is a low-code toolset that enables technical and business users to automate processes, create applications, analyze data, and build conversational bots in a simple and integrated way.

It consists of four pillars:

  • Power BI: Business Intelligence and Analysis
  • Power Apps: Rapid application development without the need for code
  • Power Automate: Workflow and process automation
  • Copilot Studio: Intelligent chatbot creation

These tools integrate natively with Microsoft 365, Dynamics, Azure, and more than 800 external connectors, allowing users to connect heterogeneous systems without complex development.

Technical explanation

From a technical point of view, Microsoft Power Platform is supported:

  • Microsoft Dataverse: As a centralized and secure database
  • Power Automate: A declarative logic-based automation engine
  • Microsoft Entra ID: Frameworks and security managed from Microsoft Entra ID
  • Microsoft Azure Functions: Ability to extend solutions with traditional code (when needed) via Azure Functions or custom connectors

This architecture allows business teams to develop proprietary solutions without compromising IT governance, thanks to a controlled and secure "fusion teams" approach.

Concrete benefits for Spanish companies

The benefits of Microsoft Power Platform are not generic: they are tactical, immediate and adapted to the reality of the Spanish business environment:

Automation of repetitive tasks

Invoice approval, employee onboarding, and incident management.

Operational agility

Reduction of response times by up to 80% in critical processes.

Reduced IT burden

Business users can create their solutions under supervision.

Increased traceability and control

Key in regulated sectors such as banking, healthcare, or industry.

Real cost savings

By avoiding custom developments that can cost tens of thousands of euros.

And all this without leaving the Microsoft ecosystem, guaranteeing full integration with Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, Dynamics, or even SAP.

Conclusion: real digitalization, from the business, and with immediate return.

Microsoft Power Platform is not just a tool. It's a strategy to empower your teams, accelerate transformation without driving up costs, and return control of key processes to the people who run them, most importantly, with the security and governance that today's environment demands. The real differential lies in its implementation: with a specialized partner like Unikal, digital transformation transitions from a promise to a measurable result.
