Think of Flow as IFTTT, but with a slant towards the office rather than IoT or hardware.įlow allows you to create “flows” (short for “workflows”) that are based on trigger events. Flow is Microsoft’s attempt at giving you the kind of automation for notifications, alerts, data gathering, and communication that will help you spend less time on boring but necessary admin work and more time on interesting (and productive) things. If you’re the kind of person who reads How-To Geek regularly, you’re probably aware of the drive for personal productivity that’s been raging for pretty much the whole millennium.
