Alternative to Appcenter / HockeyApp for hosting mobile applications - xamarin

I am looking for an alternative to HockeyApp, so that I can host and deliver Xamarin Application to end customers (UWP, iOS, Android). The reason I cannot use HockeyApp is that the authentication mechanism has changed and requires one of github, microsoft, google, etc credentials to register/login. The end customers with their business emails, should not be using personal logins to access enterprise stuff.
Have checked tools like TestFairy, etc. None of them serve the purpose or are missing UWP app hosting.

Your customers can create Microsoft account with their business email. It's free. Not tied to outlook.com email address. They will benefit from improved security compared to the deprecated HockeyApp authentication.

you can create google account with office email, suppose for your business you use oultlook.com, with the same id you can create account on google only thing is gmail will not be there for you because you already have outlook, but you can use all google service with this account.

My web app have recently been approved to use the Google My Business API, when I login to my Google Cloud Library for the related project to enable the API, I could't find the the Google My Business API.
Can anyone tells how to resolve this issue ?

Have you tried with your corporate email account?
Faced a similar problem when I tried to enable Business Messages API. Then I realized
google business won't allow generic email addresses for the allow list and we have to share individual corporate accounts for APIs access and developer console access.

Is there a way to detect when a user has paid for a Google App Marketplace app you published?

We're currently in the process of publishing a Laravel web app to Google App Marketplace and I have read every section of the guides found here https://developers.google.com/gsuite/marketplace/overview but there doesn't seem to be any mention of detecting when a user has successfully paid for your app. Because ultimately what we want to achieve is to prevent just anybody from accessing the registration/initial setup page and only grant access to G Suite domains that have paid for the app.
The G Suite Marketplace does not support payments. If you have implemented your own payment solution then it's up to you to restrict access to paying users.

Publication of Marketplace Application for Organization Unit Service Account Access

We've a request to build a Marketplace SDK app which would implicitly grant service account access to any organizational unit it was installed within. We've been told this is a common practice, but the app was rejected in the review process as we link to an informational page for the Google Chrome extension this app supports.
Other Marketplace apps appear to do this, notably RingCentral for Google Calendar.
Does anyone have advice regarding how to characterize this app so it passes the review process?
Thank you,
Ben

Authenticate to Dynamics 365 for Mobile App without Registering App in AD

I was doing some research on authenticating to Dynamics 365 through the Web API and everything I come across says that you have to register your app in AD to get a client id. If I wanted to publish an app to the app store or google play store for multiple dynamics 365 users to use across many different organizations, how would that be accomplished? Would users have to get their admins to register the app in AD before they could use it? I'm confused as to how to create an app for dynamics for general distribution. A point in the right direction would be much appreciated or if it's not possible, that's fine too....pulling my hair out searching!

Chrome Web Store Review Without Google Plus

I submitted an extension to Chrome Web Store but as a developer, if I reply to a support review my Google Plus account is published.
Is it possible to hide Google Plus account? If not, do you recommend to create another account without breaking Chrome TOS?
You can use another account for that. Google's Publishing tutorial says:
decide which Google Account you want to be your developer account.
This account will own your app (or multiple apps, if you choose) and
will receive any payments you get from Chrome Web Store Payments.
Instead of your personal account, you might want to choose a dedicated
account.
