Before we look at how that works, let’s clarify a common confusion point. Technically, there is no Microsoft Power Automate free license, but many users get a Power Automate license at no additional cost because they already pay for another Microsoft product (such as Dynamics 365 Sales). That post also gives some concrete examples of how Power Automate can “level up” various processes - making your team even more efficient. In my recent article outlining what Power Automate is (and why your Sales team needs it to stay competitive), I show how it connects seamlessly to your Dynamics 365 Sales environment. It allows business users without developer expertise to create “flows” that automate time-consuming, routine tasks using a drag-and-drop designer. Power Automate is Microsoft’s no-code/low-code automation platform and one of the five applications included in the Power Platform.
In this post I clearly break down the user and subscription models, explain who qualifies for a Power Automate free license, and summarize the current Power Automate license costs. Until now, a per-user license for Power Automate Desktop would set you back at least $15 per month.Understanding the Power Automate license model can be confusing, even for veteran Microsoft users.
Users who want to give Power Automate Desktop a try can now download it from Microsoft, but in the coming weeks, it’ll become part of Microsoft’s Insider Builds for Windows 10 and then eventually become a built-in part of Windows 10, all the way down to the standard Windows Home version. It’s based on Microsoft’s acquisition of Softomotive in early 2020, but Microsoft has since extended Softomotive’s technology and integrated it deeper into its own stack. Power Automate Desktop originally launched last September. It comes with 370 prebuilt actions that help you build flows across different applications, but its real power is in letting you build your own scripts to automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks. Power Automate Desktop is what Microsoft calls its “attended Robotic Process Automation” solution, but you can think of it as a macro recorder on steroids. Microsoft today announced that it is making Power Automate Desktop, its enterprise-level tool for creating automated desktop-centric workflows, available to all Windows 10 users for free.
