ISV

An independent software vendor (ISV) is a company that develops and sells software products. These products can be standalone applications or components that are integrated into larger systems. ISVs typically develop software for a specific market or industry, and they may focus on a particular type of software, such as productivity tools, security software, or specialized business applications. ISVs can sell their products directly to customers, or they can work with partners, such as resellers or system integrators, to distribute their products. Many ISVs also offer support and maintenance services for their products to help customers get the most value from them.
