Difference between Out of the box and Outside the box in Power Platform

| Faizan Ahmed

In the Power Platform, "out of the box" functionality refers to features or functionality that is provided by default with a product or service. This means that the functionality is available and ready to use without the need for additional customization or configuration. Out of the box functionality is often designed to be easy to use and to meet the needs of a wide range of users.

On the other hand, "outside the box" functionality refers to customizations or extensions that are not provided by default with a product or service. This means that the functionality requires additional development or configuration to be implemented. Outside the box functionality is often used to meet the specific needs or requirements of a particular organization or use case, and may require more specialized knowledge or skills to implement.

For example, in the Power Platform, out of the box functionality might include standard features such as data integration, reporting, or workflow automation. These features are provided by default with the Power Platform and can be used without the need for additional customization or development.

On the other hand, outside the box functionality might include custom integrations with other systems, custom business logic, or custom user interfaces. These features are not provided by default with the Power Platform and require additional development or configuration to be implemented.

Overall, the distinction between "out of the box" and "outside the box" in the Power Platform refers to whether a feature or functionality is provided by default with a product or service, or whether it requires additional customization or development to be implemented.
