With Power Apps, you can quickly build custom apps on sources like Online and On-Premises applications (Office 365, Dynamics 365, SharePoint, etc) or we can connect the apps to Common Data Service.

The apps have a seamless process, responsive design both on the web as well as mobile. The beauty is No coding knowledge is needed to build the app.
