SFU 3.5 ISV Distribution Program

NMicrosoft is no longer offering an ISV Program for SFU 3.5.  Your customers can download SFU 3.5 for free from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/sfu/downloads/default.mspx 

Interop Systems offers quarterly usage reporting on Interop X Server for SFU.  This is version 11.0 / 2006 of Hummingbird's world-leading X Server, customized by Interop Systems to eliminate potential installation conflicts for ISVs incorporating SFU/Interix.  See Interop X Server



ISV Solution Support Services

Application Verification and Testing

Once your application is built, it is critical to business success that it performs correctly. Our team of Interix professionals can verify and test your applications to ensure that your deployed application is a success.

Application Deployment

Smoothly integrating your completed application for deployment within your company or to external customers is vital to success. Often an application needs to be deployed in conjunction with one or more other applications (e.g. X-server).
Interop Systems has developed Application Deployment to assist with application installations that are seamless and professional. Interop Systems can also help with licensing packages in cases when it is necessary to bundle your application with other applications such as Interop X Server in volume.
