AppCreator has great data visualization capabilities. It offers prebuilt dashboards for graphical representation of the data in your applications. Visually appealing pages can be easily built using the drag-and-drop page builder.
Power Apps lacks built-in capabilities for accelerated visual data transformation. Instead, it relies on integrating with Power BI for reporting, and offers limited native report-building or dashboard-building capabilities.
The automation capabilities of AppCreator are intended to make application development easier for both professional and line-of-business developers. Business process workflows can be automated using AppCreator's drag-and-drop workflow builders. This streamlines your organization's business processes and increases efficiency and productivity.
Power Apps lacks a built-in drag-and-drop workflow builder, unlike AppCreator. To accomplish business process automation, Power Apps is dependent on Power Automate.
AppCreator offers many features for application development. It includes an integrated development environment (IDE) with a unique drag-and-drop code snippets feature, automatic native mobile application creation, a schema builder that provides a bird's-eye view of the data relationships in your applications, automatic progressive web app (PWA) creation, the ability to create completely rebranded mobile applications, and dedicated customer portals for your organization's users.
The application development feature set offered by Power Apps pales in comparison when compared to those offered by AppCreator. There are no Android or iOS SDKs, no automatic translation of applications, and no contextual commenting on records. Also, it is not possible to create fully rebranded mobile applications.
