Aspect I dislike about Microsoft Power Apps is the cost structure. It offers powerful capabilities and robust integration with the Microsoft environment even though the pricing is quite high especially for small to medium-sized businesses. The costs can increase when adding the factoring in licensing fees for Power Apps, Power Automate, and other associated Microsoft services. This can make it less accessible for organizations with limited budgets, potentially restricting its use to larger enterprises with more substantial financial resources.

Use Training Resources and Invest time in learning the platform through Microsoft's extensive documentation, tutorials, and training resources. 2.Utilize the pre-built templates and connectors available in Power Apps to accelerate development. This can save time and provide a good starting point for configuration. 3.Pay attention to the security features and compliance requirements, have role-based access control and other security measures to protect sensitive data and ensure regulatory compliance.
