"Within 1 hour I had created a brand new and fully functional installer for LandlordMax,
including time to read a couple of advance features in the user manual! Thats amazing!
Not only that, but if you consider the human resource costs of learning an installer
like NSIS and the cost of Install4J, Install4J wins hands down! I did mention that we
were using InstallAnywhere as well. After trying Install4J, we decided to convert entirely
over to Install4J and stop using InstallAnywhere. It was a good product for us at the time,
but its now time to move on to a great product like Install4J."

"I recently switched from InstallAnywhere and could not be more
pleased. Your product is fantastic and very easy to use. I converted
over three IntallAnywhere projects in about 30 minutes and am very very
happy. Keep up the great work! I have also used your JProfiler product
and the similarities in the user experience greatly helped."

"After having used InstallAnywhere for about three years, we recently
migrated to install4j. I can't say enough how much better our
experience has been. We've found install4j to be much more intuitive
and feature-rich. We were able to migrate our installers with few bumps
in the road. The support we got in the process was excellent, which is
a stark contrast to the support we got when using InstallAnywhere, which
was almost non-existent. Anyone considering InstallAnywhere should give
install4j a serious look. Having used them both extensively, I would
highly recommend install4j over InstallAnywhere."

">I just want to say that your product is one of the best I have ever
worked with. I find it intuitive, easy to set up and I like the options it
gives> us and our customers. I was very pleased at how well it works for
installation on the various Unix boxes we support. We previously used
InstallShield, which often would not display the screens correctly and
sometimes not install at all. I also want to thanks you for your quick
responses whenever I have had a question or problem.
You have a first class product and first class support. Thanks again!"

"CodeFutures did extensive market research and product testing prior to choosing install4j.
Not only did we find that install4j was technically very strong, we also concluded that it
offers the best price-performance ratio of any of the products available on the market. We've
seamlessly integrated install4j into our build process - it's 100% reliable and produces perfect
installers for Windows, Linux, Unix, and Mac OS X."
"Over last weekend, I needed to build some installers for several different
platforms for a new application we're working on. Over the years, I've looked
at different installer packages for Java and hadn't found one that made
building enterprise quality installers really easy. install4j by ej-technologies
finally filled that void for me. For a modest price, you can package your
Java applications in native, customizable installers that provide your
application with all the native hooks that your customers have come
to expect from product installers. install4j even solves the often-painful
process of packaging a JRE with your application. They allow you to download
a specific JRE for each platform and package your application with it,
forcing your application to run with that packaged JRE. This is a great
option, especially if you'd like to focus on Java 5 development and
don't mind the extra 12Mb that JRE tacks on. So, if you're looking for
a good installer program, check it out!"

"We've been long-time users of Zero G's InstallAnywhere.
We recently made the switch to install4j and couldn't be happier.
We've found install4j simpler to use, and the generated installers
offer a better end-user experience for our customers."
Matt Tucker, CTO
Jive Software
"We left InstallShield and switched to install4j. We were up and running
in one day, and our installation-related support calls almost
disappeared after we released our new installer. When our customers are
happier, we're happier. install4j has the features we require without
the steep learning curve of the bigger packages."
"I wanted to say congratulations on a superb product in install4j.
As a java software developer since 1996, I truly appreciate such a
highly professional and polished product. You have clearly paid a lot
of attention to detail which is something many other products miss."

"install4j is simple and intuitive, yet powerful and feature rich.
Unlike most other installers, we do not need to become experts on installers!
We can focus on what we do best, system integration."

"When we were deciding between installers your product stood out for its
ease of use, extensibility and cross platform support. Great work!"

"I had used InstallAnywhere in the past on other projects and find install4j to
be far superior. It has elevated the quality and "polish" of my product
significantly and I am very pleased with the results."

"I just wanted to tell you how absolutely amazing install4j is. I am totally blown away
and impressed at how easy it was. I had budgeted 10 days of fiddling around to get our
product distributable with a native Windows installer and using your evaluation I did it
in about 1 hour. I *immediately* grabbed my credit card and purchased install4j after
that evaluation. Thank you so much for the incredible work you're doing."
Joe Howes

"Just wanted to let you know that I love your product, especially your
UI. I have been using the product for a couple of years now, and I just
went through my installers and updated them and found the UI to be very
easy to use. Keep up the great work! "
