SHOPPING
the app store for the enterprise

Shopping is a single pane of glass that

provide services as well as software to
end users much akin to an Amazon.com
or iTunes experience.
Angie Stahl, Dell

SHOPPING represents a huge leap

forwards for enterprise IT delivery,
blending the rich functionality of
a traditional enterprise request
portal with the intuitive experience
expected of a modern consumer
app store.
The portal enables users to get the
software and services they need,
when they need them, and in the
way they now expect, through a
simple, modern interface.

gives businesses back control of
their IT infrastructure delivering
unparalleled Usability, Speed, Scale,
Control and Value.
It could not be easier to place an
order for IT software and services
through SHOPPING.
