Sage launches Sage Marketplace for ISVs

Sage has launched its Sage Marketplace, a new global distribution platform for independent software vendors (ISVs) to showcase their Sage developer add-ons.

The Sage Marketplace is a single global site that showcases all apps developed for Sage products and will allow ISVs to sell add-on components which are integrated with Sage’s products, including Sage One and Sage Live.

It can be viewed by all Sage customers, who can buy directly from the developing partner.

The launch follows the recent introduction of Sage’s Global Partner Programme (GPP), a partner model which provides benefits and incentives and which supports new customer acquisition and business growth for its growing global product portfolio, including Sage One, Sage Live, Sage Impact and Sage X3.

Michael De Jongh, VP global ISV and developer programme, Sage, said: “This is just the beginning for the Sage Marketplace. Many ISVs are joining us to develop extensions to Sage’s portfolio of online products, and our customers are getting even more value from our global products through new developer add-ons that create enriched functionality over and above the core product.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for ISVs to join our growing community and grow their business with Sage.”

Examples of add-ons already on the Marketplace include cashflow support from Fundbox, and e-commerce extensions from Magento and Prestashop.
