SAP Forum “Mobility” fur Partner & Ecosystem recap

by Nikola Novoselec

Also, the coincidence (or not) that RIM was presenting just after Apple I find amusing, because for me it confirmed one important thing – even in the business world RIM is dead unless they manage to pull off a miracle as soon as possible.

One thing is especially interesting, among all the experts who made SAP the power-horse it is today in business circles, it seems there is none who understands anything about UI design and User Experience, let alone those two combined in the mobile world. All the mobile applications that were made internally in SAP, functional as they may be, they could do a lot more and look nice enough to actually make the user want to use them. Instead they look like it’s 2007 and the iPhone just came out yesterday.

The important message that was sent out is that SAP wants help from it’s partners to create better and smarter Apps, so lets see if we can get some synergy going…
