Integrated Software Packages:
Integrated software provides two are more applications, such as word processing and spreadsheets, providing for easy transfer of data between them.
Integrated software combine the function of the most important PC software packages, such as word processing, spreadsheets, presentation graphics, and data basis management. This integration provides a more general purpose software tool and eliminates redundant data entry and maintenance. Integrated packages are a compromise. Although they can do many things well, they generally do not have the same power and depth as single-purpose packages.
Microsoft offices is an example. This software contains word, word processing software, Excel spreadsheets software. Access databases software, PowerPoint presentation graphics software, and Outlook, a set of tools for e-mail, scheduling, and contact management. This software has features of integrated packages, such as the ability to share data among different applications.
