Reliable Software Installation

Most enterprise IT departments develop custom software to meet the unique needs of the business. These applications need to be reliably installed to deliver business value without generating a flood of help desk requests. Likewise, patches and updates also need to be reliably applied on a routine basis. The goal is a consistently reliable experience across any platform.

The challenges: reliable installations on any platform

• Can you consistently deliver a reliable installation experience for all internally developed applications, regardless of platform?
• Can your installations easily and readily support new operating system, browser and infrastructure versions?
• Can you simultaneously support multi-platforms, including application virtualization and the cloud, from a single software installer project?
• How can you integrate installation development into your Agile development processes?
