Symantec Endpoint Management Technology Track

The Symantec Endpoint Management (SEM) Technology Track is a subscription-based program that provides SDKs, developer support services, and a developer community to help Symantec customers and partners leverage and integrate their software solutions with the tools and services exposed via the Symantec Management Platform (SMP).
The SEM Technology Track is comprised of two membership levels: Enterprise and Commercial.
  • Enterprise level is intended for Symantec customers and partners who want to extend or integrate functionality with Symantec products; these integrated solutions are intended for internal use only and not for resale. Enterprise partners are given free access to the Symantec Application Layer Software Developer Kit (ASDK) for building limited command line (COM) and/or HTML integrations with Symantec products built upon the SMP.
  • Commercial level is intended for independent software vendors (ISVs) and partners to develop commercial solutions, natively integrating with the Symantec Management Platform and/or directly with SMP-based Symantec products. Partners sign a program agreement and pay for an annual subscription; the fee includes access to the developer portal where you will find the Symantec Solution SDK (SSDK), documentation and other developer tools and services.

Intersection of Communication

Symantec Endpoint Management Technology Track participants gain access to the SMP developer support team on Symantec Connect which is a centralized source of content and resources, including the latest SDKs and documentation updates, a library of frequently asked questions, and supplementary sample code and documentation. This site is also home to our developer-oriented forums, enabling administrators and developers to post questions, review answers to common topics, share code and interact with peers.

Customer Service, Testing and Marketing Offerings

A wide range of support, consulting, verification, and assistance options are also available. For partners interested in building solutions on the SMP, testing and marketing assistance programs are also available.

Give Our Application SDK a Try

If you’d like to get a feel for what it’s like to work with our SDK, you can download the ASDK for free. The ASDK supports application layer scripting; it’s the same free version that our Enterprise level partners use to create not-for-resale applications. Download the ASDK here
If you’d like more information about creating for-resale applications that natively integrate with the SMP, contact us to learn how to become a Commercial level partner and gain access to our higher-level SSDK.
