624 Microsoft Power Apps Testimonials

"The traditional approach in manufacturing involves collection of data on paper, whiteboards and legacy systems. As a business we’re asking, how do we use emerging toolkits to help us gain an edge."

“To implement a self-monitoring process using available technology and identify areas of focus and trends (non-compliance) in real time.”

"Product line transitions are the bread and butter of what we do. With the level of detail we can generate in Project Online and Project for the web, we’re more thorough than we ever have been, which sets us up for future success."

"Microsoft is a prestigious partner that is also valued by our customers. They take the critical topic of data protection as seriously as we do and can provide us with tremendous support in this area."

“It’s easy to compare performance between different regional units and inspectors and troubleshoot. As we have just begun digitizing IRSD, our ambition is to modernize all processes so our first-line workers will be fully empowered to execute their tasks using digital tools.”

“Being paperless made us faster, commit fewer mistakes, and execute our activities in a more sustainable way. Inspectors increased their productivity by 20 percent, saving about 20 hours per month due to quick data entry and automated reporting.”

"People have solutions they don’t have to think too hard about. They trust technology will work for them wherever they are. That is the greatest gift that technology can give Pathfinder."

"What I love about our solution is that the apps can be disposable. This is a complete novelty, as it means that we don’t get lost in long and tedious processes or stuck with monolithic solutions that are hard to change without breaking other parts."

“IT-wise, our organization has traditionally operated in silos. Each department or service uses their own electronic patient journal system, and none of these communicate well with each other.”

"We were looking for a solution that would work best at overcoming our already existing issues with the distance between locations on the factory grounds, and also the significant increase in remote team members."

"We decided on the broad outline of the application in about one to two months while considering the issues we faced. The development was then completed in about two months with the support of Microsoft. We were already familiar with Teams as it was used in various ways within our company."

"We were still not sure if the app could be used as a reliable communication tool when a problem occurs at the factory. At first, we wondered if it would work well in such situations, but soon discovered we could link with our internal app for Shipment Inspection. Being able to handle that development internally by ourselves is the real opportunity with Power Apps."

"As the number of meetings increases, it takes more time for preparation which could lead to additional overtime. However, I can say that such overtime work is decreasing and our work is improving. In fact, I feel this contributes to our overall aim with SDGs."

"We have positioned our 20th Mid-Term Management Plan and its successor, which runs through fiscal 2025, as a period to execute the Ricoh Lift-Off strategy."

"This emphasis on avoiding text input and focusing on a one-touch, push-based notification system was extremely important to us. Seeing that we could make such improvements ourselves, based on the reality of our situation in the field, was a strong point of satisfaction around using Power Apps."
