InstallAnywhere 2009

Install Software on Multiple Platforms with One Installation Project

InstallAnywhere gives software developers a quick and easy way to author professional installations for Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, Linux, i5/OS, Mac OS X, Windows, and more. It saves you time and cuts costs by creating a single project file that generates reliable setups for each of the platforms you target.

If you develop applications for multiple platforms, trying to manually create setups for each one is a time-consuming and error-prone process. It often leads to release delays and installation errors that frustrate end users and increase your support costs.
