Accelerate your time-to-value with development essentials 

Need inspiration for your next innovation? Take a look at Digital Marketplace—the online hub for tools and solutions built for the Digital Business Platform. The marketplace is all about accelerating your launch of differentiating software applications by providing one place with development essentials, solution accelerators, business process models and other time-saving assets from Software AG and our partners.

Who needs Marketplace? You do

Marketplaces are not a new concept. And while there are similarities with app stores, marketplaces are most certainly not app stores either. To further complicate matters, different marketplaces are run by very different organizations and for very different reasons. But marketplaces are needed to bring innovation from all corners of an ecosystem into one place for easy consumption by anyone. By giving an equal platform for all software innovators, large and small, marketplaces are the great equalizer of the modern software industry.

So why has Software AG launched Digital Marketplace and why now? Well, the Digital Business Platform has added a new development paradigm to software—the rapid and continuous innovation of differentiating applications. The innovations by our partner ecosystem have been so swift we felt they deserved a forum—one that works equally well for all partners, large or small, global or local.

In a nutshell, Software AG’s Digital Marketplace accelerates your time-to-value in leveraging our Digital Business Platform. It brings together Software AG and partner development tools and solutions in one easy-to-use online storefront. It’s open for everyone and free to use.

What you can find at Marketplace

You might be wondering “why should I take time out to look at this?” or “is Marketplace right for me?”

Digital Marketplace has a wide range of listings applicable to a wide range of industries. Quick links to featured apps and other listings can quickly show you the types of partners committed to the marketplace. You’ll also get a flavor of Software AG’s own listings, such as business apps built in webMethods AgileApps or Apama Capital Markets development libraries. If you have a project underway and need to speed things up, you can easily filter by industry, product and listing type to quickly see if there is something for you.

Are you looking for a repository of detailed end-to-end manufacturing business processes? Do you need that repository to seamlessly drop into your existing ARIS deployment? Do you need coverage of major functional areas like R2D, D2P, P2P, O2C, inventory management, warehouse management or quality management? Then look no further than Capgemini Manufacturing Process Models on Digital Marketplace.
