As these are not managed devices, having end users deal with script execution policies seems like a bad idea, and spending money on a public cert seems like moving in the wrong direction. Mike - I'd give the trial with Advanced Installer a shot. For what you need, I think it is the right features/price. If it doesn't work for you, Flexera offers a trial as well, but that is much more expensive and has a lot that you don't need. I hope that helps, Nash From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brandon Linton Sent: Monday, July 28, 2014 10:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] OT: Need a software packing app Even more so I am confused as this is built in to ConfigMgr 2012 in the Application Model. Why would you not want to use that assuming CM12? But yes to Trevor's point Powershell works well for this as well. Thanks, Brandon A.

I'm looking for an easy packager app that can handle prerequisites, and is fairly inexpensive/cheap. I'm looking at Advanced Installer, I think the Professional license should cover what we need. Any other suggestions? Best Regards, Mike Murray Desktop Management Coordinator - IT Support Services California State University, Chico 530.898.4357 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
