Description ComponentOne provides software and services that customers use to manage internal software development efforts. The company offers software "components," pieces of preprogrammed code, that work with Microsoft's Visual Studio, .NET Framework, and ASP.NET software development environments. Software components save time for programmers, since they don't have to code basic functions of a sophisticated system. Software developers use ComponentOne's tools for creating mobile, Web, and Windows applications. The company was formed in the 2000 merger of APEX Software and VideoSoft.
