Microsoft Retains Leadership in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms
For the fifth consecutive year, Microsoft has been recognized as a Leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Low-Code Application Platforms. This accolade is a testament to the innovative capabilities of Microsoft Power Apps in enabling developers to create solutions faster and more efficiently.
What’s New: Copilot and Generative AI
Microsoft Power Apps’ leadership is highlighted by two unique areas of innovation. The first is the use of Copilot and generative AI to accelerate development and enhance end-user experiences. Power Apps has a multi-year lead in generative AI, with GPT-3 integration launched back in 2021. This union of generative AI and low-code is revolutionizing app development, enabling organizations to innovate at an unprecedented speed.
“Building the app from scratch would have taken 6-8 hours. We were able to just describe in natural language and build in a few minutes.”—Ron Colvin, Director of Innovation – CONA Services
Major Update: Large-Scale Security and Governance
The second area of innovation is the advancement in large-scale security and governance. This enables organizations to empower thousands of developers with increased visibility and control. With Microsoft’s comprehensive approach to enterprise-grade security, privacy, identity, compliance, and responsible AI principles, interactions with Copilot in Power Apps are safe, responsible, and enterprise-ready.
Why It’s Important
In the age of AI, organizations need to modernize their software on a massive scale to stay competitive. Microsoft Power Apps is leading the way in this transformation, providing the tools necessary for large-scale innovation and security.
