PowerApps Online Training with Job-Oriented PowerApps Course
                     Challenges of Using PowerApps for Enterprise Solutions
Understanding limitations and considerations for large-scale adoption
Introduction to PowerApps
 Low-code platform enabling rapid app 
development
 Strong integration with Microsoft ecosystem
 Ideal for departmental apps and quick 
automation
• However: Enterprises face scalability, 
governance, and integration challenges
Performance Limitations
 Apps may slow down with large datasets or 
complex logic
 Data delegation limits can impact queries 
beyond 2,000 records
 Complex formulas increase execution time
• Mobile performance varies based on network 
and device capability
Scalability Challenges
 Designed primarily for small to medium 
business scenarios
 Handling thousands of users can strain 
environments
 High usage can impact Power Platform capacity (
API calls, storage)
• Not ideal for high-transaction, heavy-load 
enterprise systems
Integration Constraints
 Strong with Microsoft tools—limited with non-
Microsoft systems
 Custom connectors require advanced 
configuration
 Real-time integration may require Azure 
Functions or Logic Apps
• API limits can restrict frequent/large data 
operations
Governance & Security Issues
 Citizen development increases risk of shadow IT
 Need for strict Data Loss Prevention (DLP) 
policies
 Environment sprawl without proper governance 
model
• Role-based access can become complex with 
growing apps & users
Limited Customization & Development 
Flexibility
 Low-code capabilities may not support all 
enterprise requirements
 Advanced UI/UX customization is limited
 Complex business rules harder to maintain in 
formulas
• Harder to meet enterprise-grade customization 
typical in full-code apps
Licensing & Cost Concerns
 Costs can increase significantly at scale
 Premium connectors, Dataverse usage, and 
API consumption affect pricing
 Complex enterprise apps may require multiple 
licenses
• Budgeting becomes difficult as usage grows
Summary & Recommendations
• Key Challenges:
 Performance & scalability
 Integration constraints
 Governance & security issues
 Limited customization
 Rising licensing costs
• Recommendations:
 Use PowerApps for departmental, workflow-based, low-complexity apps
 Adopt strong governance, ALM, and API management
• Consider combining with Azure services for enterprise-grade scale.
