Updating software is a risky and troublesome task even if only a handful of workstations are concerned. The centralized distribution of programs and updates relieves IT's work burden. Recording installation packages is particularly easy with the Matrix42 Package Robot.

The easiest way to create installation packages for distributing software in the corporate network is the best-practice process used by the installation recorder. It records all details similar to that of a normal setup routine. The packages are bundled analogously to an exe file, modified manually in the script and then installed on individual systems. By the use of color codings, the supplied scripting editor is simple to use. Drop-down menus can be used to restrict available commands to specific issues such as mouse operations, registration or data transfer which makes it easier to exclude file groups or address hidden windows individually.
