Hi. I have recently acquired InstallShield X, which offers some very
basic update management. Basically, I want to handle updates for
thousands of users (the number could easily top 100,000). However, I
have discovered that the full InstallShield Update Service is very
expensive. With an MSI installation, am I better off trying to handle
the updates through other means or by paying for InstallShield's
Update Service? In other words, does InstallShield's Update Service
really provide me functionality that I cannot acquire elsewhere?
Thanks for any information.
