SAPPHIRE NOW and ASUG Impressions
This year’s SAPPHIRE NOW in Orlando was the best ever yet: more than 20,000 participants were registered and a few 125,000 more joined online. User experience and its modernization was a big topic at SAPPHIRE NOW. From Bill McDermott’s keynote to the Fiori Café to the customer sessions talking about UX, there was definite interest and desire to reinvent the SAP user experience. Read also this blog on UX Buzz at SAPPHIRE NOW.
The Portal team delivered 15 sessions at ASUG conference and the SAP Fiori Launchpad was one focus topic of the sessions. SAP Portal is also aligning with this new user experience and in the following weeks we are planning to release a key enhancement for the SAP Portal - running the SAP Fiori launchpad on SAP Enterprise Portal, thus leveraging customers’ investment in the portal while modernizing the look & feel of the portal with an aligned UI and UX across clients and applications.
