Custom Portal Development
Your website requirements may involve complex functionality, or you may need to connect to data sources outside of Dynamics 365.
In these situations, our team will assist by building and implementing a custom portal using Azure and other integrated Microsoft products. This allows us to have greater flexibility and control in developing a custom web solution that precisely aligns with your needs.
Comparing Power Pages and Custom Portals
Power Pages is a popular solution for quickly launching data-driven websites using prebuilt templates and low-code tools. By contrast, custom portals are built from scratch. As a result, these projects involve higher upfront development costs and take longer to deliver. Despite these considerations, a bespoke Azure web portal could provide better long-term value for your organisation for the following reasons:
Design Flexibility
Starting with a blank canvas, our team will customise your Azure portal to operate exactly as you require, incorporating your functionality and design to ensure seamless user journeys.
Reduced Usage Cost
For websites attracting high traffic, Azure usage costs may prove more cost-effective than Power Pages licensing for authenticated and anonymous user capacities. Also, if your monthly website traffic fluctuates significantly, Azure billing ensures you only pay for actual usage and could be cheaper than Power Pages pay-as-you-go rates.
Increase Scalability
Adding bespoke customisations once a Power Pages site is live can be complicated and result in compromised solutions. By contrast, a custom Azure portal ensure a scalable foundation if further development is needed.
