This session will describe various use cases and show how bots can drive efficiency and adoption while making it easier to do your job in SAP and 3rd party environments.

Leveraging HCP for SAP applications, bots provide a conversational interface to a person, to help execute takes; bots deliver information to a person (on demand, on event or on a schedule) and perform actions back into all of SAP’s applications

The new suite of bots, created by Kore, improves overall employee production and paves the way for simplified communication for a business’s most complex systems to do routine business processes

SAP provides rich functionality to businesses to help them “Run Simple” and Kore takes that promise of “simple” to the end-user
