SAP SE announced 12-month free access for partners to test and demo systems on SAP S/4HANA Cloud, the leading intelligent enterprise software, and on SAP C/4HANA, the market-leading suite of customer experience solutions. These offers present two of several new initiatives that began last year to extend SAP’s commitment to provide partners with the right resources to support their businesses and ultimately their customers better.
