What is SAP Build Work Zone standard and advanced edition?

This new set of capabilities is currently available in beta only and is planned to become generally available in 2023.

SAP Start is not part of the SAP Build brand and portfolio, but it uses SAP Build Work Zone as technical foundation and customers can start with SAP Start for free and then easily upgrade to SAP Build WZ standard and advanced edition in order to get more features. SAP Start completes the modular offering for SAP's central entry point solutions:
Providing a unification of all SAP “Central Entry Point” solutions under one umbrella, what does this mean for customers and partners? It is a requirement that was requested by many of our customers and partners in the past, and now we reached an important milestone with the unification of SAP Launchpad service and SAP Work Zone into one solution (= SAP Build Work Zone). And SAP Start was added to the offering.
