Why NWBC is Licence Free ?

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

I had 1 presentation on NWBC and during my presentation one of my colleague asked me this question.

"Why SAP providing NWBC as Licence Free.?"

Can anyone give me a convincing answer for this.

Hi,

NWBC is positioned as the "replacement" for SAP GUI (although this is really not precisely true since NWBC uses SAP GUI behind the scenes). SAP GUI is "free" - so NWBC is "free".... note I use "free" in quotation marks, since really what is free? I mean you pay your SAP license and then you pay your support and maintenance fee each year .

Personally I would like SAP to provide more "free" things - like "Freeori":
