Rich Gallery Experience

In the November release, we also launched a new product gallery that allows you to browse the entire collection of ArcGIS Solutions before logging in to your ArcGIS organization. Browse the gallery of solutions available for each industry or search for a specific solution you are interested in.  Once you locate a solution, read more about the business value it provides, capabilities included, and see if the solution is available in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise.  When ready, quickly deploy the solution in your ArcGIS organization.

This new and improved gallery experience is now available in the ArcGIS Solutions app.  You will find the ArcGIS Solutions app in the app launcher when you log in to your ArcGIS Online organization.  The app can also be added to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 and 10.9.1 portals.
