What Does COTS Stand For?
COTS stands for Commercial Off The Shelf Software
COTS, or Commercial Off The Shelf Software, refers to software products that are readily available for purchase from commercial vendors. These solutions are designed to meet a wide range of user needs and are not custom-built for specific clients. COTS software is typically developed for general use, offering features that can be quickly implemented and integrated into existing systems, thereby reducing development time and costs for organizations.
