Our Capabilities

End-To-End Power Automate Consulting

From consulting to implementation and bot monitoring, we provide comprehensive Power Automate solutions.

Power Automate Consulting & Strategy Planning

We map your existing workflows against Microsoft Power Platform's connector library (750+ pre-built integrations with Salesforce, SAP, SharePoint, Teams, and Dynamics 365) to identify which processes will save the most time per hour invested. Most clients identify 3-5 automatable workflows in the first session. Deliverable: a prioritized automation roadmap.

Power Automate Design & Development

We design and build Power Automate flows from simple approval routing (a manager receives a Teams notification and approves in one click) to complex multi-system workflows that pull data from Dynamics 365, validate against SharePoint lists, and push results to your ERP. Typical build time: 2-4 weeks per workflow depending on integration complexity.

Cloud & Scheduled Flows AI Builder OCR Exception Handling

Power Automate Integration

We connect Power Automate to the systems you already run: Dynamics 365, SAP, Salesforce, Sage 300, HubSpot, Waystar, and 750+ other platforms via Microsoft's connector library. Where no connector exists, we build a custom API connector. Result: data moves between your systems automatically, without manual export/import steps.

Custom API Connectors ERP & CRM Sync On-Prem Data Gateway

Power Automate Desktop Service

Power Automate Desktop is Microsoft's robotic process automation (RPA) tool that mimics mouse clicks and keystrokes to automate tasks in legacy applications that have no API. We use PAD for processes in older ERP screens, insurance portals, and government systems where a modern integration isn't possible. Typical use cases: data extraction, form filling, screen scraping.

Common Questions

FAQ

A Power Automate developer designs, builds, and maintains automated workflows inside the Microsoft Power Platform. On a typical project, they map the current manual process, identify which steps can be automated, configure the flow using Microsoft's 750+ pre-built connectors (or custom API connectors for systems without one), add error handling and retry logic, test against real data, and deploy the flow to production. For complex workflows involving Dynamics 365, Dataverse, or Power Automate Desktop (for legacy app automation), a certified developer reduces build time and avoids the most common failure modes.
A single workflow automating one process — such as an invoice approval routing or a SharePoint-triggered notification — typically takes 1-2 weeks from scoping to live. Multi-system workflows involving ERP integration (Dynamics 365, SAP, Sage 300) or Power Automate Desktop for legacy apps take 3-6 weeks. Full departmental automation programs (automating 5-10 workflows with Power BI reporting) run 6-12 weeks. Most Sunflower Lab projects are in production within 4-8 weeks.
Power Automate cloud flows automate tasks between web-based applications — connecting Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, SharePoint, Salesforce, and 750+ other platforms via APIs, with no human interaction required. Power Automate Desktop (PAD) is robotic process automation (RPA) — software that operates a computer like a human does, by clicking through screens in applications that have no API, such as legacy insurance portals, government systems, or older ERP interfaces. Most enterprise automation programs use both: cloud flows for modern system integrations, desktop flows for legacy applications that cannot be updated.
Power Automate connects to Dynamics 365 via a native Microsoft connector — no custom code required. Common integration patterns: a record change in Dynamics (new lead, closed case, approved purchase) triggers a flow that updates SharePoint, sends a Teams notification, creates a task in Planner, or posts to an external system. For more complex scenarios — such as pulling data from Dynamics, running calculations, and writing results back — Power Automate supports Dataverse actions and HTTP calls to the Dynamics 365 Web API.
Power Automate is the right choice when your processes live inside the Microsoft 365 ecosystem (Dynamics 365, SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, Azure) and when the systems you are connecting have APIs or Microsoft connectors. UiPath is the right choice when you need to automate legacy desktop applications, require enterprise-grade RPA orchestration at scale, or need to automate across systems with no API access. Many organizations use both: Power Automate for M365-native workflows, UiPath for legacy desktop automation. Sunflower Lab implements both and can recommend the right tool based on your specific process.
