InstallAnywhere 2008 Enterprise by Acresso Software (formerly Macrovision)

Deploy your application on any platform. InstallAnywhere Enterprise Edition is designed to install any kind of software -- desktop, enterprise, or multi-tiered Web services - onto any platform, and to configure those applications for optimal performance. Whether you're creating applications written in Java, C++, PERL, or C#, or deploying EJBs or .NET Web services, all of the installation details are handled automatically. InstallAnywhere Enterprise Edition simplifies complex installations and provides maximum developer customization, along with extensive user interaction, client/server features and localization for 29 languages.

Benefits

Create One Installer Project for Multiple Platforms and Multiple Languages

InstallAnywhere deploys software onto any client or server platform, handles all of the complexities automatically and configures your software exactly the way you want it every time. InstallAnywhere supports the latest editions of Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, AIX, NetWare, and many more. And with built in support for 29 languages, you'll be deploying software to international markets in no time. Whether you’re creating applications written in Java, C++, PERL or C#, deploying EJBs or .NET Web services, RPM’s InstallAnywhere is designed to install and configure software – desktop, enterprise, or multi-tiered Web services – onto any platform, in one installer project.

Build Installers in Your Language

InstallAnywhere's developer environment, including the six-step Project Wizard and the Advanced Designer, is now available in localized language versions. Developers who speak French, German, and Japanese can author multiplatform installers using their native language. Create installers for the full range of platforms and all 29 target languages supported by InstallAnywhere.

Lowers Development and Support Costs

Having one installer for multiple platforms shortens time to market and lowers costs through shorter development times, simpler documentation, rapid QA, and fewer support calls. InstallAnywhere is packed with dozens of pre-built actions and panels, so you can build and deploy a single universal installer quickly and intuitively. Create installer functionality once: innovative Merge Modules and Templates can be re-used across development teams, product lines, and even ported along with your application in OEM applications. And InstallAnywhere's collaborative architecture lets multiple authors create installers on different platforms, saving valuable and expensive development time.

Best End-User Experience

Use your custom graphics, animation, and transparent images to create the ideal user experience that matches your software's unique look and feel. InstallAnywhere eases software deployment by creating a single powerful installer that functions on many platforms and behaves like a native application. In fact, Software Development magazine gave InstallAnywhere a five star rating in their installer product roundup, noting that "Your software has ten seconds to make a first impression. InstallAnywhere makes those seconds a pleasure instead of a chore." - Software Development, September 2003.

Five Minutes to Build an Installer

InstallAnywhere's six-step Project Wizard is one of the fastest and easiest approaches to creating an installer. The Project Wizard's simple interface provides the power you need to create an installer quickly. And InstallAnywhere shortens development cycles by integrating with popular IDEs and build tools. It can even automate the build process so there's no need to manually recreate installers every night.

Simplifies and Standardizes Software Deployment

InstallAnywhere provides a complete high quality installation toolset to produce full-featured, flexible installers. It's packed with tons of new features to make your complex server software deployment and client-side configurations a breeze. With InstallAnywhere, you concentrate on developing great software, not deploying it.

Unlimited Customization

The InstallAnywhere IDE includes a fully graphical Advanced Designer interface that allows you to create installers without coding; yet its innovative APIs allow unlimited customization options so your installer has precisely the functionality you need. InstallAnywhere's unified look and feel from install to product delivers product branding, not installer branding. InstallAnywhere's componentized, rules-based architecture provides one complete toolset that solves most installation problems. Whether you're creating a simple installer for a client application, or deploying EJBs to multiple server locations across an enterprise, InstallAnywhere is an ideal installation solution.

The Standard in Multi-Platform Deployment

InstallAnywhere's fast, powerful, and intuitive installers are used by many enterprise software companies, including Borland, HP, IBM, Intel, Novell, and Sun Microsystems.

Available in Two Editions

InstallAnywhere is available in two different editions, all based on the same award-winning, multiplatform installation technology. The editions are designed to accommodate every need and budget, from large, multi-national enterprise development teams and commercial software vendors, to the smallest independent software authors.

Easy Evaluation Process

InstallAnywhere is available in a full-featured trial version. Simply download and use the six-step Project Wizard or the Advanced Designer to build an installer. Use it to deploy onto multiple platforms.
