The SAP App Center is to “extend analytic solutions, “fill the white spaces”

How use more features of analytics with partner solutions

As a customer you have more requirements than what is given in tools, perhaps the extensions can be used

SAP provides core features, extensions go beyond the core

This is a platform

SAP heard from customers, SAP provides good tool, but have their own requirements that can’t be met by current features.  You can ask SAP to develop, or search / find a partner to meet requirements

So SAP created a platform to bring analytic extensions in one place

Today 400 add-ons from over 120 partners and contributors

Try, buy and download without contacting SAP

“pay and download mechanism”

Added platform link in products
