Microsoft Power Pages enable the creation of low-code business websites by empowering all teams, not only developers, resulting in quicker market entry with reduced expenses.
AI-powered Power Pages enable developers to quickly build secure external websites that better respond to customers. Rather than dedicating ample time to crafting and coding sites, individuals can utilize natural language and intelligent suggestions through tools such as Copilot and Power Pages to accelerate the process.
Power pages help build web pages with pre-designed templates or custom interfaces and showcase business data with text, videos, images, forms, and lists using feature-rich templates with sample data for scheduling, registration, and applications.
Users can enhance website functionality with Visual Studio Code, GitHub, and Azure DevOps and reduce website security concerns with role-based access controls and Azure’s compliance features.
Microsoft Power pages can help businesses increase productivity and securely create websites that meet customer satisfaction on a larger scale. Sign up for Power Pages to look at the new features and capabilities.
