Escode helps organisations stay ahead of changing software models, versions, and vendor risks by providing trusted software escrow agreements, comprehensive software testing, and advanced software verification services. Our solutions are designed to protect businesses that rely on third party applications, ensuring long term continuity, resilience, and control.
With Escode, you can manage all your business critical applications and software dependencies from a single, secure location. Our View portal gives you a unified, real time view of software deposits, source code, and verification outcomes. We make it easy to track versions, monitor vendor commitments, and maintain transparency across your software supply chain.
We work closely with development and technical teams to independently assess whether your software is complete, up to date, and performing as expected. Through autonomous validation services and intelligent automation, we provide evidence based assurance that your applications will continue to operate even if your software vendor experiences disruption.
With more than 40 years’ experience, our story begins in 1988 when we recognised the growing reliance on technology but saw no safety mechanisms in place to protect either software users or vendors. As pioneers of the software escrow category, we have set standards for the wider industry and helped shape its direction ever since.
That foundation has been strengthened through key acquisitions. In 2021, NCC Group acquired Iron Mountain’s Software Escrow business, which is now part of Escode. In 2024, Escode added the customer portfolio of World Escrow following its insolvency, further reinforcing our position as the world’s leading software escrow provider.
