Packaged software, also called a software package, is software that is often used together, performs similar functions, or includes similar features, and is bundled together as a set of software programs. For example, Microsoft Office is packaged software, including multiple software programs used in a home or office, such as Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Powerpoint. Video and audio editing software may be available as packaged software as well, as they may be used together for editing music and video files used in a movie

A software package is an assemblage of files and information about those files.
Linux distributions are usually installed as separate software packages, each of which is a particular application, such as a Web browser or a development environment. Each package includes an archive of files and information about the software, such as its name, the specific version and a description. A package management system (PMS), such as rpm or YUM, automates the installation process.
The term is also sometimes used to refer to bundled product suites, such as Microsoft Office.
