SAP (rank #122) holds a modest lead over Braze (rank #401) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (54 vs 41). The gap of 13 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Braze is clearly ahead of SAP. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), SAP is clearly ahead of Braze. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Braze is ahead of SAP. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), SAP is clearly ahead of Braze.

Braze carries 488 GitHub stars across 136 public repos, with 22 repositories active in the last 90 days and 10 external contributors on record. SAP shows 12,850 stars across 309 public repos, 96 active in the last 90 days and 60 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but SAP's footprint is roughly 26.3x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.
