What Power Pages should enable

Power Pages is not just about publishing information online. It is about controlled access to business data.

When implemented correctly, Power Pages allows organisations to:

  • Provide customers with secure self-service portals
  • Share information with partners and suppliers
  • Reduce manual data requests and admin
  • Improve transparency and experience
  • Maintain full control over data and access

The focus is on trust, security and usability.

Common challenges with external portals

External access introduces risk if not handled correctly.

Common issues we see include:

  • Overly complex user journeys
  • Poor performance and usability
  • Weak access control and permissions
  • Disconnected data and systems
  • Limited ownership and maintenance plans

Power Pages solves many of these challenges, but only when implemented with care.

Power Pages and governance

External portals require ongoing oversight.

Avrion helps establish:

  • Change management processes
  • Content and data ownership
  • Security reviews and updates
  • Performance monitoring

So portals remain secure and effective over time.

What do our customers say?

“I’m using Power BI a lot more now than I did when we started with creating refreshable dashboards for the Senior Leadership Team and other management levels showing different elements of the business. We are doing this by implementing the data warehouse built by Avrion, which is very handy. I love Power BI and think it is such a great tool that every business can have/use as it turns your raw data into a story that shows different aspects from the company over time.”

Dan Costin – Restore Datashred

“Avrion is an agile, approachable, friendly company. They are easy to deal with and deliver on what they set out to achieve.”

Tom Crowther – Belvoir

“Avrion’s AI and automation solution transformed our operations. What used to take three full-time staff days to process now happens automatically - accurately, consistently, and at scale. We’ve reclaimed time, reduced errors, and empowered our team to focus on higher-value work. It’s been transformative.”

COO at a leading UK waste management company

“Maximizer CRM has been an invaluable tool. It enables us to be very efficient, keep on top of client projects and opportunities, and deliver the service we want to for our customers.”

Graham Cording – Smart Presentations

““The reason why I like working with Jon is because he always comes up with a solution. This was a small project but it has a big impact and solves lots of time problems. I can now make updates to the communications that go out myself and don’t need the support of Avrion for this going forward, although they are always on hand if I need help.””

Jane Margetts – Restore Records Management

“Avrion truly understood our business and tailored Dynamics 365 to fit our needs. The phased approach made adoption seamless, and we’re already seeing major time savings. Our internal processes are now streamlined, and we’re well-positioned for future growth. It’s a game-changer for us. Looking back, partnering with Avrion to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 was one of the best decisions we made. Our operations are now efficient, our team collaborates seamlessly, and we’re equipped to scale our business with confidence. If your company is struggling with inefficiencies like we were, I highly recommend working with Avrion – they’ll make sure you get a solution that truly works for you.”

Raj Mahay – Resin Products

“Integrating over 30 acquisitions, meant harmonising over 60 customer databases. Impressive, but of little use if the data is unstructured. Maximizer meant structured data, yes it requires focus, but the output is efficient to say the least; the new improved pipeline made us twice as effective, cross selling across the 5 business units - closure went up 4-fold. Integrating this with front line operational calls gave us a holistic view, reducing hundreds of days spent on internal calls, joining up the dots for our customers. Opportunities grew by over 20% with straightforward data polishing. The icing on the cake was with GDPR, good process with opt-outs and customer choice on contact options. When you feed this into the business it allows us to be focussed on the day-to-day operation, the back-end processes of store, scan and shred just become slicker – our focus with customers substantially better. Hundreds of hours freed up for improvements on invoicing, value added services, the day to day delivery with document management. Our project involved coupling existing platforms with new CRM technologies, training and a complex project roll-out. Avrion managed the transition without fuss or any ‘catch-you’ extra fees – a job well done.”

David English – Restore plc

“Connolly's Red Mills have been working with Avrion since 2017 with our Maximizer implementation and have found them to be a great company to deal with, projects completed in a timely manner to a high standard.”

David Dewberry – Connolly’s Red Mills

“Data is one of the most valuable assets any business has, but unlocking its true value depends on quality, meaningful analysis, and having the right tools and skills to turn insights into strategy and revenue. Having worked with Avrion, I can say they really do bring the expertise to help businesses make that transformation!”

Catherine Royle – Restore plc

“Avrion has, from the start, been very honest and clear about what we can achieve without spending vast sums of money on an entirely new system. We created an automation wish list for Avrion, who were brilliant at listening and communicating as they tailored the project specifically to the scope. Avrion built the system according to our needs and fine-tuned it as required once we began to use it. They have been very supportive throughout and helped us navigate through the entire process. We now have a system that can evolve as the development does, to improve and continually improve account visibility for our homeowners and improve cash flow by utilising the automation that we required.”
