SHAREWARE/FREEWARE DEVELOPERS GET FULL, FREE ACCESS TO INSTALLER VISE 5.0
MindVision Software started in 1987 as two friends doing shareware. We
still remember those days. MindVision deliberately remains a
fiercely-independent software company with a burning desire to build great
products and provide excellent customer service. We understand how much
work it is for a shareware author to develop commercial-quality products
with limited time and money. One of the biggest problems is that many
shareware authors simply don't have the resources to buy the same high
quality tools as the big guys.
MindVision wants to encourage shareware and freeware developers, so we've
established a program by which you can use Installer VISE for free. That's
right, FREE! And we're not sticking you with some old version -- this offer
applies to our latest versions of Installer VISE.
[For more details on our newly-released Installer VISE 5.0.1, please see
our web site at (http://www.mindvision.com)]
Using an installer eliminates many of the hassles you encounter in
distributing shareware. For example, since your installer can display read
me information, you no longer need a separate read me file. You can also
clean up older versions, put files into special folders, and much more.
With Installer VISE's active installer technology, your users can download
just the portions of the installer that they need. For example, they could
download just the 68K or PowerPC portion of a fat application, or one
localized version from an installer which offers many localized versions.
The active installer technology opens up new possibilities for packaging
software.
In addition, with our exclusive online registration feature, you can better
track how many people are using your software. You can even allow them to
enter their payment information and take their order, all from within your
installer!
Not only does Installer VISE provide a great user experience, it wraps
everything in a tamper-proof package so you know that your potential
customers are getting everything they need.
Here are some shareware products we downloaded recently that already use
Installer VISE:
Default Folder by St. Clair Software Graphic Converter by Lemke Software
CoolViews by Quadratic Software DragStrip by Poppyseed Software
MacPerl
Installer VISE is also used to install thousands of commercial products,
including:
Adobe Photoshop Microsoft Office 98
MacInTax Virtual PC

By delivering your shareware product with Installer VISE, even more users
can successfully install and use your software.
Shareware and freeware developers, here's your chance. Free is a great price!
