"InstallBuilder is a great tool for helping developers who don't want to spend too much time on packaging their software. The fully customizable installation procedure offers a nice graphical interface that fits the specificities of our product and allows an easy installation on both Linux and Windows platforms."- Eric Courtois,

"BitRock's InstallBuilder and Custom Stacks help us provide KnowledgeTree in an easy to install and robust form, removing what is traditionally a significant implementation barrier for would-be users of commercial open source software. Since KnowledgeTree is now deployed on a known and certified Apache, MySQL and PHP stack, our support costs are significantly lower."- Daniel Chalef,

Quickly Package Crossplatform Java® Applications with InstallBuilder
BitRock InstallBuilder makes building installers for your cross platform Java application fast and easy. The development tool includes a wide range of features that simplify installer development, including Java-specific functionality, such as the ability to:
- Automatically detect existing Java installations in the user's system.
- Easily bundle a JVM with your application.
- Allow the user to select which JVM to use with your software
Unlike competing products, InstallBuilder installers:
- Do not require a self-extraction step. This speeds the installation process and reduces the potential for memory-related errors.
- Can be customized using built-in actions. You don't have to write a single line of Java code to develop sophisticated installers.
- Are defined by 'human-friendly' XML project files. The file structure makes it easy to edit installers by hand and integrate them into version control and automated build systems.
InstallBuilder was designed with a mantra similar to Java's 'build once, run anywhere' approach. Installers for every platform can be generated from one project file and build environment, making it easy to integrate installer generation into your version control system and nightly build process. Best of all, the generated installers have a truly native look and feel across all supported platforms, making a great first impression on new users.
