Stuck in Standard: Do You Really Need Power Apps Premium Licenses?
European Power Platform Conference (EPPC) 2026
About this session
Is it possible to unlock the full potential of Power Platform without premium licenses? In this session, we’ll explore the real-world impact of building apps that stick to standard licensing; and whether that’s a smart long-term strategy.
We’ll compare both sides of the licensing divide, weighing up the hidden costs of staying “standard” against the benefits of going premium. You’ll learn how to govern Power Platform effectively without premium features, and when investing in licenses might actually save you money.
We’ll answer the following questions, and more:
- What’s the tipping point for licensing?
- How can you convince the decision-makers it’s worth the investment?
- What are the dangers of not licensing your Makers?
- What’s the impact on your governance strategy?
This talk is for everyone - makers, developers, admins, and decision-makers alike. By understanding the licensing landscape, your organisation can make informed choices, avoid common pitfalls, and confidently embrace the future of low-code/no-code innovation.
