Today, Samsung Electronics America announced the launch of AppStack, a new cloud software marketplace designed for SMBs. AppStack features a collection of highly rated business apps, like G Suite, which provide the necessary tools for SMBs to enhance productivity, enable collaboration and streamline online business operations, from a partner they can trust.



The current environment requires businesses to leverage smart, strategic technology to enable productivity, increase profitability and remain competitive. While SMBs are eager to adopt digital solutions, limited IT resources and bandwidth can prevent many entrepreneurs and leaders from future-proofing their business. Samsung designs devices, like the Galaxy Chromebook and newly announced Galaxy Note20 and Tab S7, and builds platforms like AppStack to help SMBs meet their evolving business needs.

Designed specifically with SMBs in mind, AppStack simplifies the search, selection, purchase and central management of business apps - taking the guesswork out of the discovery and deployment process. Customers will be able to test apps with risk-free trials and maximize savings based on competitive discounts offered exclusively through AppStack, with increased savings based on the quantity of apps purchased and device bundling.



Apps currently available for purchase on AppStack include solutions for customized business email address provisioning and productivity, project management, time-tracking, e-Signature, automation, point of sale, document management, design and publishing, sales enablement and CRM. These include:

 	G Suite: Google’s suite of productivity apps to run your business in the cloud.
