Benoit Vienne

Benoit Vienne

Solution Architect specialized in Microsoft Power Platform, I’ve had the opportunity to experience this journey from every angle: end user, project manager, business stakeholder, and now architect and strategic deployment leader in large organizations.

I’ve been at the forefront of rolling out Power Platform in complex environments, aligning technological innovation with business goals. In other words: not just building apps, but driving transformation and creating measurable business value.

Throughout my career, I’ve led governance programs, deployed Power Apps solutions to support international initiatives, guided the adoption of AI within business teams… and built communities (4,000 people strong) dedicated to sharing best practices and fostering a sustainable Power Platform culture.

Today, I’d like to share a candid field story: the keys to leveraging Power Platform as a true strategic transformation lever, the practices that really work (and the pitfalls I’ve personally stumbled into 😅)… with one promise: you’ll leave with concrete ideas — and maybe a fresh perspective on your Excel files.

Martin Karlowitsch

Martin Karlowitsch

I am an entrepreneur and a passionate Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Manufacturing guy.

After selling my previous company (NETRONIC Software) to and integrating it into Boyum IT, my brother Elmar and I took a break to identify and build "the next Karlowitsch thing".

This break is over, and we have skin in the game again. We followed our hearts, souls, and brains and decided to play where we can both deliver the most value and have the most fun. Hence, our new venture lets us build Pulseoniq - a new manufacturing ISV that is 100% focused on Business Central. With Pulseoniq, we deliver quiet intelligence to noisy shopfloors.

We build real-time execution intelligence and control apps for discrete make-to-order manufacturers on Business Central who keep getting surprised by their own shopfloor. Unlike conventional tools that promise a better plan — or data capture apps that record what already went wrong — our apps tell your customers what's happening, what's starting to slip, and what they have to do next on the shopfloor before the customer calls.

Last, but not least, I am the author of the "Business Central and Manufacturing Pulse" report.
