I know this seems quite easy, but I am not happy with my options for the word "vlastní" - every term I can think of sounds awkward and forced. thanks:)

I have to split this with the other Pavel, because I find useful elements of both answers that make it the right term. In this context (which wasn't revealed in question), "vlastni" is not implicit, because it is distinguishing these companies from those merely distributing or packaging SW, so I like proprietary, but Mr. Blann's second part is right for me to be able to distinguish "off-the-shelf" SW from that which is for instance sold via download. Had to be Solomon-like here...thanks gentlemen.
