We're in the middle of tidying it all up.\n\nThis has got me wondering what other people use. So a few questions for anyone managing automation at their company:\n\nDo you still use Power Automate, or have you switched to something else (like Zapier, Make, n8n, UiPath, or something custom)?\n\nIf you switched, what made you move, was it cost, it being too limited, or just easier to manage elsewhere?\n\nIf you're still using Power Automate, how do you handle keeping testing and live versions separate, and who's allowed to build new automations?\n\nJust trying to figure out if we're doing the right thing sticking with Power Automate, or if we should be looking at other options too.\n\nThanks!",
