As a new starter to SAP it is important for me to get comfortable with SAP products and how they can add value you to the customer. I have discovered that there is a strong emphasis on making the world simpler at SAP and this video gives a good understanding of how we at SAP can create a simpler world for our customers.
The video opens with an intro to Sara, a sales manager, who has been working with SAP applications for years. Now she needs mobile applications in order to do her job, now she has an issue where she is using lots of different applications over the different devices she uses to do her job. There is no similarity between the apps.
Peter, the CIO of the company, has a challenging role where he is supporting many different devices, platforms and applications. He is now struggling to control the variety of applications, while at the same time the users are demanding more support and he needs more expertise to maintain the ever growing devices and applications.
SAP's solutions to Sara and Peter's problems are covered by Responsive Design.
Responsive Design aims to let the user of the applications have similar experiences across different devices, desktop, mobile and tablet, with the views for each device adapted for the device in use. There is a high emphasis on ensuring the content is easy to read and navigate.
The video goes on to show how SAP Portal is taking Responsive Design to the next level. On desktop there is full user access, where on tablet there is access to selected information and on tablet only crucial information and options are available. The content is designed to look great and be in a form relevant to the business, user role and user preferences.
