Agents 006: The license to build.
Picking the right Microsoft agent for your mission
Walk into any Microsoft customer right now and ask them which agent technology they are using. The answer will be a confident "Copilot." But hidden in the closet there is a whole bench of underused talent.

Copilot Studio, Power Automate, Azure AI Foundry and three more agent platforms all live under the same Copilot umbrella, and most of them never get sent on a mission.

The result is that one tool ends up doing every job it was never designed for, while five others sit on the shelf gathering licence fees. Teams build a low-code agent for something that needed a real orchestration framework. They spin up custom code for something that out-of-the-box Dynamics 365 already does.

This session is the field guide for picking the right agent for the right mission. We walk through the six agent technologies in the Microsoft stack, what each one is actually built to do, and the kind of job each one fails at when used in the wrong place.

The point is not to pick a winner. Every mission needs a different operative, and most failed AI projects in the Microsoft ecosystem fail because someone sent in the agent they liked, not the one the mission called for.

You leave with a clear decision framework for which agent to send on the next mission and the knowledge to push back on a vendor pitch that promises one tool can do all six jobs.
