"Metro Bank (is) leveraging Azure to take their Power BI capability to new heights."
“We started with a single smart factory, and from there we’re building out a network of smart factories that are all connected. Ultimately, we aim to connect this network of factories to our customers. That gives us an intelligent enterprise throughout the entire end-to-end value chain, connecting the supply side—the factories—with the demand side of our customer needs.”
"We knew that cloud technology was essential to our future success as a company and that our Microsoft investment gave us the capabilities and tools to transform our operations."
"It’s a fine line that we have to find—where you put the line between enablement and empowerment of users on one side so that they have everything enabled when they need it, and the security controls and governance processes on the other side to make sure that everything they do can be done safely."
"The main purpose of what we do is to make Power Platform secure so that people can build applications that simplify their own work."
"Power Platform is a new approach to software development and implementation. Traditionally, we had to rely on a technical partner—now, we have much greater independence."
“Managing different tools is time-consuming and requires good technical skills.”
“We needed a better way to translate business requirements into digital applications and forms without being programming experts.”
"You don’t have that stress anymore. The data should be correct the first time because it’s the way the form has been built."
"Our new solution improves how we work with our customers: we see, hear, and understand their needs better—which helps us move forward with our Materials as a Service vision."
"Based on the productivity gains we’ve already made using basic Power Platform tools, it’s exciting to think what we can accomplish using Dataverse and other advanced features."
“With our Power Platform solution, we have improved the processing of test requests by 70%.”
"Power Platform has not only enabled our developers and IT architects to provide better solutions for employees, but it also allows our employees to create their own solutions to improve and automate their daily tasks."
"We started by developing basic productivity apps and we’re now using Power Platform to support important manufacturing processes."
“There were so many good use cases. Many started with people sending us their Excel files and asking if they could be converted to Power Apps.”
