## Introduction

<p class="callout info">In addition to all the features that Soffid offers by default when installing the Console and Syncserver, it also allows you to add new features in **addon** format.</p>

<p class="callout success">Soffid provides a **collection of addons** that can be installed to add functionalities to the Soffid Console and, in some cases, also to the Syncserver.</p>

## Installation

<p class="callout info">There are several Addons available to be installed to add functionalities to the Soffid Console. These addons can be found at: [download opensource](http://www.soffid.com/download "Download opensource") or in [download enterprise](http://www.soffid.com/download/enterprise "Download enterprise") in the Addons section.</p>

<p class="callout success">In Soffid 4, it is no longer necessary to upload addons to the Console. A new marketplace feature has been included in the [license and plugin](https://bookstack.soffid.com/books/soffid-4-reference-guide/page/license-and-plugin "License and plugin") page to download addons directly from there.</p>
