Platform Overview

What is the Marketplace Platform?

The Marketplace Platform represents a modern approach to software procurement, offering a comprehensive set of modules and features that simplify software procurement for enterprises.

It's designed to simplify the complexity of managing relationships and building a digital business network that connects clients with vendors in a consistent manner, providing standardized billing capabilities, streamlined procurement processes, centralized vendor management, and more.

The platform’s functionality is further augmented by a public API and SDK, which enables automation and allows developers and system integrators to access the platform programmatically.

Why use the Marketplace Platform?

The Marketplace Platform is a two-sided platform designed for clients to easily procure software, manage their purchases, and for vendors to sell their software solutions globally.

For clients, the Marketplace Platform simplifies SaaS purchases and optimizes procurement workflows through the Client Portal.
