Looking for MSI Packaging Tool

[Boggot]

Hi all

 

I am looking for some reccomendations as to a good tool to use for Capturing an install as an MSI. I have encounterd some issues with the free one from AppDeploy and seems to fail on some of the more complex installs.

We have a lot of non standard pieces of software and having an excelent program to create MSI's from before and after snapshots of installations would be of great benefit to us.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'd recommend you look at Wise Package Studio, but it's not free,

There's also AdminStudio. Again, you will have to pay for it:

Thank you both for your quick replies. I will take a look at both and see how they do.

Cheers!

If you have a valid SCCM license, you can get an SCCM Version of AdminStudio for free, takes a while to find on Google though, PM me if you want the URL

Has anyone compared Flexera's AdminStudio to Scalable's WinInstall? If you need more of the Pro features, WinInstall licenses seem to be about half the price of AdminStudio. I don't have experience with either one and haven't been able to find a comparison of the two online so far...
