OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

Revenera has over 30 years of offering customized outsourced installation development solutions. We developed and marketed the first windows installer (MSI) based on InstallShield, subsequently delivered the market leading cross-platform software installation development solution, InstallAnywhere, and assisted hundreds of customers with their unique outsourced software development needs specific to setup programs. These services are primarily targeted to independent software vendors (ISVs) but can be equally applied to custom application deployment within an enterprise.

Our team fundamentally understands the numerous challenges involved with small to large scale installation development. We've delivered "bullet proof" setups for customers facing numerous setup specific challenges including: patching and updating, self-repair, admin deployment and more.

Additionally, beyond assisting customers with actually building their installation programs, our team offers architectural and code review services, advanced support and troubleshooting, training and more.

BUSINESS PROBLEMS ADDRESSED

  • Failed installations can negatively impact a customer's first impression of the product. Inherently sound applications can be judged negatively due to failed installations.
  • Failed application patching or updating can render the application inoperable.
  • Cross platform installations (i.e. Java applications on Unix) require difficult to acquire specialized installation development skills.
  • Understaffed installation development resources can delay delivery of the product putting the release or schedules at risk.
  • Undertrained or junior resources may not deliver an installation program up to best practice standards, introducing risk to the product. Furthermore, techniques for authoring installations may differ based on the goal of delivering to an end user or IT administrator.
  • All of the above may lead to increased software maintenance and support costs for the organization.

DELIVERY APPROACH

The service engagement is delivered by a Consultant, Senior or Principal staff with 5-15 years of experience with InstallShield and/or InstallAnywhere software installation implementations.
