Powerapps and Microsoft flow are the two new tools that will revolutionize the the automation further.
You don’t require any developer skills and can easily built APPS in few hours, weeks in comparison to old times when you have to hire developers, spent time and money to build even a simple app.
I will show you example of one APP that we have deployed in one of our customer environment : Helpdesk Calling App (Contact IT)
This can be pushed to all user community so that they can contact IT easily and don’t have to remember the numbers or find these when required by them.
