SAP has been named a leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Multiexperience Development Platforms for the second year in a row. SAP has been recognized as a leader based on its “ability to execute” and “completeness of vision". Gartner evaluated 13 vendors for the report.

SAP’s multiexperience development offering consists of SAP Extension Suite, including SAP AppGyver, SAP Business Application Studio, SAP Conversational AI, SAP Mobile Development Kit (MDK), SAP native SDKs for iOS and Android as well as the SAP Fiori design system and design platform. SAP Extension Suite is a key component of SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).

The SAP Extension Suite offering enables customers to boost productivity and engagement by delivering tailored experiences for SAP customers and employees. SAP supports development by enabling IT- and citizen developers to deliver seamless multiexperience application experiences with the ease and simplicity of a low-code/no-code and the power of sophisticated pro-code development complimented by innovative AI services, APIs, pre-built integration and extension components on the SAP BTP.


Gartner cited strengths in the following areas:




  • Market understanding. SAP provides an integrated MX application development experience with digital assistants, reusable UI and microapp components. SAP provides thousands of components, both out-of-the-box and via its marketplace. 

  • Product strategy. SAP is focusing on best-in-class experiences for each device, including mobile (native), web (W3C standards, PWA specifications) and interaction modalities. The expansion of SAP mobile cards into a MX microapp architecture allows developers to reuse more components and achieve faster throughput when composing new MX apps. 

  • Sales execution. SAP has a massive existing customer base, and adoption of its MXDP within its existing customer base grew significantly in 2020. SAP’s growth is partly driven by its innovative, dual pricing system which has both  pay-as-you-go and credit-based options. This pricing model enables B2C application development by reducing prices for high-volume workloads with low-intensity transactions.
