Managed package

Managed packages are maintained by app providers. These are built by salesforce Independent Software Vendors (ISV) partners to promote and distribute application to customer which is designed by them. Application packages are created by salesforce development edition. If the package is distributed the managed packages can be upgraded, why because the customer who is installing the package can’t see or edit the apex code.

Unmanaged package

Unmanaged packages are in the form of templates. These are used to distribute applications and open-source projects, By these developers have the functionality on building blocks and later build addition functionality on the top, or changes are done based on customer requirements. Once the package is distributed it can’t be upgraded. Here the customer can see and change the package.

In case of unmanaged packages, company can go through managed packages which are maintained by vendors and are updated periodically. Managed packages reduce the scope of the business implementation to build and maintain the application and focus on solving the problems which are occurred while updating the application.

AppExchange include hundreds of free applications which are distributed as unmanaged packages and provide full access to source code to modify the needs which are to be added. We can find and install the pre build unmanaged packages and use them to build new applications.
