This question have a very specific purpose. The interviewer want to know that if the candidate admit that he has applied other places or gives a canned answer. Or what the candidate think about their company.

Never claim that you did not apply for other company. Despite this you can say that -

As you know I would like to work as a software developer. Beyond your company I have also applied to XYZ company and ABC company. This answer is more specific.
