No, owning SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) is not mandatory. We offer two deployment models:
BYOP (Bring Your Own Platform): In this model, we integrate the Partnerflow solution into your existing BTP landscape. While you can save on Partnerflow licensing costs, the resources utilized will be deducted from your BTP account.
Full SaaS (Software as a Service): Alternatively, we can host Partnerflow for you. In this case, owning BTP is not required, and we will establish a direct connection to your SAP environment.
