Microsoft: Power Automate

If someone does the same steps every day in the same order, a flow can probably do them instead.

Hours Lost to Repeat Work

Approvals wait in someone’s inbox. Data gets copied from one system to another, and reminders depend on a person remembering to send them.

Power Automate, once called Microsoft Flow, handles repeat tasks and business processes across Microsoft 365 and other services. We build flows that take that work off your team, from simple alerts to large workflows that span several systems, with approvals and if-then rules.

What Flows Can Handle

Work that moves on its own across Microsoft 365 and other apps

Approvals that go to the right person based on your rules

Documents created and handled without manual steps

RPA, software that clicks and types, for older systems

How We Automate Work

1

Find Patterns

We look for manual work that follows a pattern, then pick what will save the most effort.

2

Map Logic

Each step, approval and exception gets written down, including who decides what and where the data goes.

3

Build Flows

Cloud flows handle your connected apps, and desktop flows cover legacy software with no API.

4

Test and Release

Real examples run through each flow, and your team learns what to do when one needs attention.

Why Choose System Strats

We’ve implemented Microsoft solutions for organizations of all sizes. That background helps us automate a process without leaving you a tangle of flows nobody can maintain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Almost any task you repeat. That covers email alerts, approvals, data entry between systems, creating documents, file handling and calendar events. If you do it by hand and it follows a pattern, Power Automate can likely handle it.

Power Automate has deeper Microsoft 365 integration and offers cloud flows and desktop RPA in one platform. It’s the clear choice for Microsoft-centric organizations. Zapier has broader third-party app connections.

Yes. Power Automate has connectors for many non-Microsoft services, including Salesforce, Google Workspace, Slack and Dropbox. Custom connectors can be built for any system with an API.

RPA, short for robotic process automation, handles tasks in software that has no API, like older desktop programs. You need it when a system offers no other way in. Power Automate’s desktop flows click buttons, type data and move through screens the way a person would.
