Have you ever had a brush with fame on a train or bumped into royalty at a bookstore? Join us for a laughter-filled episode of the Power Platform Show where William Dorrington, Andrew Welch, and I, Mark Smith, share our hilarious celebrity encounters, featuring stories about Ryan Cunningham, Kevin McLeod, and even a chance meeting with Queen Elizabeth. Amid our humorous banter, we introduce the intriguing concept of "anchor apps," a term coined by Steve Mordew, to explore applications that are so integral to business operations they become irreplaceable.
Then, we take a deep dive into the world of enterprise agreements and ERP systems, reminiscing about the days of lengthy update cycles and discussing the significant shifts brought by enterprise licenses. We tackle the rise of low-code/no-code apps, playfully dubbed "craplets," that can fall short of delivering substantial value. The conversation highlights the need to focus on robust, mission-critical applications that seamlessly integrate with organizational infrastructure, ensuring continuous growth and adaptability. We also touch on the Five Eyes alliance, providing a fascinating context to understand the dynamics of deploying large-scale apps in enterprise settings.
Lastly, we navigate through the Power Platform ecosystem, detailing how certain applications rise to the status of anchor apps and their pivotal role in business operations. We categorize apps into productivity, important, and critical tiers, emphasizing the urgency for better recognition of Power Platform as a formidable enterprise solution. Our discussion includes captivating tales of legacy tech solutions, like a sophisticated system for the US and New Zealand mission to Antarctica, and a critical test management app in the UK. These stories illustrate the lasting impact of enterprise-grade apps across various sectors, blending humor, insight, and real-world technology triumphs.
