Client Story: Dataverse Capacity Confusion – Solved!

Recently, a client came to me overwhelmed by unexpected usage issues in their Power Platform environment. They were hitting Dataverse capacity limits and unsure why — even though they had multiple Power Apps and Power Automate licenses in place.

After a quick assessment, I discovered the root of the problem: they were relying solely on default capacity and hadn’t fully accounted for how usage and license-based entitlements impact total Dataverse storage.

✅ Here’s what I did:

Quickly audited their licenses, clarified how capacity is accrued, and optimized their environment to better use pooled storage.

The result? 💡 More transparency, fewer capacity alerts, and a much more scalable setup.

If you’re running into Dataverse capacity issues or just want to get ahead of them, let’s talk. A little clarity goes a long way.
