It’s no secret businesses today are drowning in manual tasks, disconnected systems, and bottlenecks that slow everything down. Whether it’s approving invoices, onboarding new staff, or chasing updates across spreadsheets and emails — these repetitive processes eat up time and leave room for human error.
That’s where Microsoft Power Automate comes in.
What is Power Automate?
Power Automate is Microsoft’s low-code automation tool that lets users build workflows across apps and services — without needing to write complex code. It empowers everyday users to automate tasks, streamline processes, and focus on the work that actually matters.
And it’s not just for large enterprises. SMBs across Australia are tapping into automation to work smarter, save costs, and boost productivity.
Real-World Use Cases for SMBs
If you’re an IT reseller or managed service provider, chances are your clients are already feeling the weight of clunky manual processes. Power Automate can help fix that — and you can be the one to bring it to life.
Here are just a few use cases you can help your clients implement:
- Invoice and expense approvals – Auto-route documents for sign-off based on custom logic.
- Employee onboarding – Trigger welcome emails, system access, and task checklists when HR adds a new hire.
- CRM updates – Keep records in sync between platforms like Dynamics 365 and SharePoint or third-party systems.
- Incident reporting – Streamline how incidents are captured and escalated with forms, alerts, and tracking.
With thousands of connectors to Microsoft and third-party apps, Power Automate can easily fit into almost any workflow.
