MSI Factory makes the task of creating professional installers faster, easier and hassle-free. MSI Factory includes advanced installer capabilities plus the next generation power of WiX, an intelligent development environment, a revolutionary fully scriptable .EXE bootstrap wrapper. MSI Factory is easy to use, you aren't forced to deal with the complexity of MSI database tables, sequences and components, simply drop in the application files, customize a few dialog boxes using the visual dialog editor and then click build. MSI Factory creates a single installer that works on any version of Windows from 95 to Vista.
MSI Factory incorporates a rich feature set to assist developers with the complex productivity challenges associated with developing MSI installer packages. Some features include:
Setup Factory vs. MSI Factory
The fundamental architectural difference between the two products is that Setup Factory uses its own proprietary, self-contained setup engine to perform the installation. It includes a powerful built-in scripting language to control the installation procedurally. As such, it is very flexible and configurable. MSI Factory on the other hand, creates Windows Installer packages (MSI files) that are interpreted and run by the Windows Installer Service which must be pre-installed on the end user’s system. Like all standard MSI installers, these are essentially database files that describe the installation in a declarative fashion, and must abide by the rules of the Windows Installer technology.
