How to Buy Products in the Marketplace

The Marketplace Platform is a centralized hub designed to streamline the discovery and ordering of software products.

The platform simplifies the complex process of software licensing and procurement, making it easier for you to find and compare products from multiple software vendors in one place. Each product on our marketplace undergoes a process where vendors define the product, including its terms of use, and submit it to SoftwareOne. Products become available for ordering only after they have been accepted by SoftwareOne.

Accessing the marketplace

You can access the Marketplace by signing in to your account and selecting Marketplace > Products from the main menu.

Browsing and selecting products

The Products page shows different products that are available for you to order. The products are categorized by the vendor name and displayed in the form of cards. You can view detailed information about a product by selecting the product name. To learn more, see .

Select agreement - When ordering a product, you have the option to use an existing agreement or create a new one. The option you select in this step determines the next step in the wizard.
