Installerex vs InstallCore



Application developers can now conveniently create their installers and easily make them available to the market with the use of platforms designed for this job. Two of the most popular platforms nowadays that you can use for creating an installer for your app are Installerex and InstallCore. But which platform is really the best? Get to know more about these two services so you can weigh your options.

As mentioned, Installerex is one of the platforms that you can use for creating an installer for your application. It is easy to use so you should not have any problems with the process. But in case you encounter some issues, the company has a team of professionals that you can contact for assistance. You can customize your installer so it will appear exactly how you want your users to see it.

Installerex offers tools to let you reach your potential clients and effectively market your application. You can also promote other products or services on your installer for monetization. One of the common reasons why applications are not used by clients is because they fail to install. Some take time to download and install, causing the user to cancel the process. Installers from installerex have high success rate on installation, which is why developers can be assured that their users will be able to get their apps. Since this is a pay per install platform, you will only pay for every successful installation of your application, which is a fair deal. It also comes with reporting tools that you can use to easily check how well your installer is doing on the market.

InstallCore



Another option for creating an installer for your application is InstallCore. It hosts over 3 million install daily. The platform offers a user friendly software development kit or SDK, making it convenient for developers to create an installer that they can distribute on the web. Like Installerex, it also lets you monetize on your app by providing installers that have high success rate on installation and allows posting of advertisements. Some of the features that this platform provides are multilingual, JavaScript based, download accelerator for remote files and small stub. It also provides report so you can keep track of your installations.

Verdict

Both platforms are good options for creating installers with high installation success rate. This is important to make sure that your application actually reaches your clients. Some installers fail to install preventing users from utilizing the app. This has a negative impact on the developer or the company. The two platforms also provide installers that have faster download and installation speed, which could also have an impact on the users. If download and installation take longer time to complete, this may cause the users to quit the process. There is a higher possibility that they will complete the said processes if they do not take much time. They also both allow customization and monetization, as well as monitoring of installation. However, if you want a service that lets you pay for only successful installation of your application, then Installerex could be the best option for you. This is a smart choice as you do not want to spend any cash if clients were not able to use your app. Another good thing about Installerex is that the site is protected by leading Internet security programs including AVG, Norton and McAfee, making sure that installers are safe for installation. It also has trust seals from ClickID, SiteLock and Trust Guard. Some users have difficulties accessing InstallCore since it is being blocked by other security programs like ESET for potentially unwanted content.

How to Make Money with Installerex



We all come up with magnificent concepts every once in a while. The only trouble is, we lack the necessary skills to make them happen. Literally, we are unable to turn those ideas into reality because we lack the know-how in order to achieve then. In my case, I wanted to develop my own installer as I had downloadable products that I knew would benefit the open market. However, I had no idea on how I would be able to accomplish that goal. After some searching around the Internet, I landed on the Installerex website and they were perfect for what I needed to happen. 

Installerex: An Overview
From what I have gathered based on my research in the beginning, Installerex is a company which will help you develop installers for downloadable content that you already have. Whether you are using it for personal reasons or want to make money off it by selling your product online, Installerex will be able to assist you. They develop cloud-based installers which are all the rage these days, and that is what I had developed as well. 

Their Reputation
I am not one to just take somebody’s word and immediately believe what I read. I had to do my own research and what I learned about Installerex astonished me. They have a great reputation and the highest rate of successful installations for all their clients. Plus, they don’t make things seem too good to be true. While their services may be for free, they will of course charge you eventually for their services. This is done if you choose to have your installer sold to other interested buyers in the world. Installerex will only charge you for every successful install and that is a really good deal. In my case, I chose to sell the product developed from my idea and the Installerex team was more than willing to help me out.

What Installerex Helped me to Accomplish
Besides developing my ideas into something useful, Installerex also helped me make money off the installer I had developed. However, if you think that it would be a pain to do so, think again. When you want to sell the product, Installerex will do the work for you and market your installer to the whole world. All you have to do is sit back, relax and monitor the sales report which is accessible in their website. 

No Threat at All
I have heard a lot of negative words that were said about Installerex, which included virus threats and malware. I found that hard to believe right from the start because judging from the website alone, it is apparent that these guys are legit. The site contains not one, but three anti-virus protection seals to guarantee their visitors and potential clients that they are operating one purely professional level. You will see that the site is protected by AVG, Norton and McAfee anti-virus programs so there is no threat of malicious programs attacking your computer. Then when it comes to the product, I couldn’t be more happier with the results I got.

Installerex --- Installer Platform with Digital Signatures



Software installer platforms have become a quite popular trend for software companies these days. Most software companies have elevated their status from being simple application developers to technologically concerned developers who clearly had in mind the best for application developers. Because of this, most software companies have migrated and are now leaning into application development platform companies.

These application development platforms usually only require a quick sign up from application developers, and the journey pushes through---application developers could now start building their application. But with the, now quite a few number, of application development platforms, how do you exactly choose which one you should sign up for? One pressing concern among application developers is the issue of security. Viruses might be containable, but online security, especially for their creations should be a must for the platform company.

Installerex, one of the more popular choices, provides a high level of security and is truly a proven professional company. Application developers need not be concerned about viruses and other potential threats because in the Installerex company server, there resides an antivirus that scans all the files and blocks malicious files before they even go live.  They are also certifies with the McAfee antivirus system, which is a renowned antivirus company.

Installerex has also been working closely with security companies to build the best practice in making installer downloading process fully safe and secure. To help achieve this goal, they provide each of their installers with a digital signature that comes from Comodo Digital Signatures. This digital signature is commonly identifiable with Comodo Digital Signatures’ company id.  As not too many of you probably know, there are only two companies that are certified to issue digital signatures, namely Microsoft and Comody Digital Signatures.

Installerex has truly taken a further step forward with their new level of security and protection. This clearly demonstrates how very well this company is dedicated in providing the best form of service to their valued customers.
