Mobile developers are expensive, and getting new applications tested and then pushed out to users can be a time-consuming process.

PowerApps applications can pull in information from a variety of data sources including Office 365, Dynamics, Google Drive, Workday and other services. Developers can also build connections for PowerApps in their own services if there isn’t a connector already available.
