### "A must have installer builder." — 5.0/5

> **Regis** | *October 23, 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use. Powerfull. Flexible. Frequent updates adding features.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. It's a great tool. I wish I started using it years ago.
> 
> I used to create my installers with NSIS. Every changes is the installation required some scripting chnages. Advanced installer is packed with rich features.

### "The Magic of Advanced Installer" — 5.0/5

> **Kalpit** | *April 25, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The thing I like most about Advanced Installer is that it integrates well with other software like VS ,Azure and we can do scripting  and automation easily
> 
> **Cons**: The thing I like least is that it is only useful for windows and not useful for Linux which I mostly use for development and the automation is not smooth
> 
> The Overall experience was Good and it helps if you are using Windows software and it helps in doing scripting and automation.

### "Good product with many features. Expensive licensing model." — 4.0/5

> **Dan** | *July 14, 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to create simple MSIs.&#10;Editing MSIs with full customisation and advanced tools mean smooth process in getting final product ready.&#10;Scanning to create an MSI is by far the easier feature.
> 
> **Cons**: Difficult to figure out what feature are available as part of your subscription. Several times I have worked on an msi only to find out on saving or testing that I needed a higher subscription/licence. Then I have to restart because I've no idea what I've used that is outside my licensing.
> 
> Good. Creating custom MSI or simple MSIs by placing files into folders is best for me. I use alternative tools for difference scanning/compiling MSIs ands higher licences are too expensive for education use.

### "Great Product let down by poor support" — 2.0/5

> **Andre** | *March 5, 2025* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It appears to be a very complete product
> 
> **Cons**: Pre-sale support is in our experience is terrible. Support queries are left unanswered or when/if  answered are addressed 4- 5 days after being raised. Even requests for pricing info are ignored.
> 
> It seems fully featured but some of the functionality is obtuse and somewhat difficult to understand even after viewing videos. Unfortunately, support is not helpful , possibly due to the fact we are not a client, just someone who is testing the product with a view to buying
