Question My company wants to market and license software along with another company's software to customers. Should we license both products under one agreement?

Question The other company's software could have unforeseen defects or could infringe a third party's patent or copyright. You could be held responsible, though they're not within your control. If marketing or economic concerns preclude selling the two products under separate licenses, (1) inspect the other software carefully; (2) get a written infringement indemnification commitment and (3) confirm that the other company's insurance will cover potential claims.
