So you think you need an app and now you need to figure out which app type to choose. Here follows some guidelines.

+
* Model-driven apps have Dataverse as datasouce. Dataverse means a relational database which comes with built-in functionality for setting up security. But it also comes with a licensing cost.
+
* If you want to be able to have several different data sources then it might be a canvas app you need.
+
* If mobility is important, then it might be a canvas app that you need.
+
* If flexible UI is important, then it might be a canvas app you need.
+
* If the users of the app are not within your own organization, perhaps you want your customers to update information about themselves. Then you might need Power Apps [[Portals]].
