Get Involved Early

SAP offers innovation adopter services to help you jump start your projects with SAP's latest products and solutions

Beta Programs

Beta programs provide you with early access to SAP software to test and see how it fits your business requirements. Beta shipments are provided under a Test and Evaluation Agreement (TEA) and can be used for testing purposes only. Productive usage is not allowed and is not supported under the maintenance and support agreement.

Your benefits:

  • Ability to test new product versions with your own processes, data and landscape before official release.
  • Opportunity to provide feedback on product functionality, usability and quality of new products before official release. 

Beta programs will be listed on the SAP Customer Influence site as they become available. Thus you get a complete picture of SAP's influencing opportunities for your areas of interest.
