The interface  of PowerApps is similar with Microsoft Office and it allows developers to integrate other enterprise service into it, so developers can create apps in similar environment, for example, developers can access data from cloud services like Office 365, Dropbox or other on-premises systems through PowerApps and use that information to create their app. 


PowerApps can be called SaaS product. The Apps created by PowerApps can be run on desktop, tablet PC and mobile devices. There are three versions for developer's choice: Free version, Standard version and Enterprise version. A free version of PowerApps allows developers to create unlimited app and to use with two cloud-data sources per user. The Standard version will enable unlimited app creation and use, with unlimited cloud data sources, including Office 365, Dropbox, Dynamics CRM, Salesforce and more.
