integrations specific to your company, industry, and market, you can do that without losing Showpad’s excellent sharing and

What are Showpad Apps?
Showpad Apps are custom applications that you create. A Showpad App is made of one or multiple Extensions that are rendered/embedded on various extension points. For example an App can contain:
| Extensions | Description |
|---|---|
| Experience Type | An extension that you can use to create your own Experiences. These Experiences are an interactive way to organize content for your sales reps. They're used to navigate through your sales content by selecting and opening the content within it. |
| Admin Settings | An extension where the admin configure the App. |
| User Settings | An extension where the seller can setup his preferences for this same App. |
As the creator of the app, you're in control of all aspects of your app:
- the content available,
- the functions it performs,
- the look and feel,
- and more!
When you've completed developing your masterpiece, you can assign it to one or more organizations so their administrators can install it, modify it within the limitations you've defined, and publish it.
