I’ve had a different experience with PowerAutomate.

Both as a no-coder and a user.

As a user the UX is horrible and I’m now swamped with terrible “apps” or “workflows” that people try to get me to use and fail for arcane reasons. Or are just ugly or brittle.

As a no-coder the tools are hit or miss, the docs are bad, and widgets frequently don’t work due to my licensing and there’s no way to know other than to try and see.

They want us spending the max amount of manual stuff as long as we don’t quit.

I find the UX horrible for different reasons, ones that I believe are pretty easy for microsoft to address if they just watched someone like me use the product. I have not experienced the brittleness, maybe what I am doing is more trivial.
