I speak with SAP Cloud Platform Mobile Services customers every day. It’s become clear to me that too often customers don’t realize that they have access to a vast set of development features to build a wide range of mobile apps. Many of these customers purchased Mobile Services to address one particular need – like building an iOS native app or a cross platform micro app – but they have a back log of many other use cases that they need to address. Way too often, they don’t even know they already own the tools to address ALL of these use cases quickly and easily! Mobile Services has many features that address many use cases
There is is a very good likelihood that you are thinking of other opportunities within the business that can be addressed by a mobile application, whether you want to quickly put SAP My Inbox onto mobile with Mobile Cards, or convert a Fiori app to a native Android and IOS application using Mobile Development Kit.
In 2019 you should be looking at how to put your licenses to better use and capitalize on your investment. Mobile Services provides your business access to multiple tools that are already available and can be put to use immediately.
I want to provide a brief insight into what some of the features Mobile Services you have access to, or if you are looking into becoming a customer what you could have access to. I would like to educate you on how you can use your licenses and to help understand what is available so you can expand your reach to your users, take advantage of already purchased licenses and accomplish many business needs that may or may not have been thought of.
Please see below for a short description of some of these tools as well as links to various tutorials to get started. If there are any questions on these and how they can be put to use please feel free to reach out to me.
