The InstallAware Setup Squeezer intelligently unpacks your Windows Installer setups, and then recompresses them using InstallAware's industry leading compression technology. Setup Squeezer is a fully automated, point-and-click wizard, which produces 15%-50% size savings on your setup packages. All this happens with you converting your setup projects - you can keep them in their own native format, and still benefit from InstallAware's compression.

InstallAware is first to market with an IDE targeting Microsoft's open source WiX platform. WiX is used internally by Microsoft teams to build world-class installers such as Microsoft Office. Until today, WiX remained hard to use, as it did not provide a GUI but only command line tools. Now with the new WiXAware IDE by InstallAware, you too can use the same technology that Microsoft teams internally use to build software installers.

InstallAware Studio Admin lets you reverse engineer existing Windows Installer setups and make customizations to them. Simply run the Database Import Wizard to produce a ready to build InstallAware setup project which can be further customized.

Setups are compressed up to 67% smaller than their MSI installer counterparts.

InstallAware creates Windows Installer MSI setups with easy MSIcode scripting. Instead of populating MSI databases to build your setup, or being stuck with the limitations of visual designers, use the intuitive MSIcode scripting environment to build your MSI installers. InstallAware will automatically convert your conditionally flowing MSIcode script into a legal Windows Installer MSI database at build time.
