Software is critical to the operations of most organizations. To obtain use of software, organizations may:
- License software directly from third-party software vendors.
- Develop software internally by employees or enter into development agreements with third parties to develop customized software.
- License software from a software distributor, such as a software reseller, value added-resellers (VAR), or original equipment manufacturer (OEM), either as a stand-alone product or bundled with other software or equipment.
This Toolkit contains resources that provide practical guidance on many aspects of software licensing, development, distribution, and related transactions that allow counsel to effectively drive the IT transactional process.
