Wise Installation Studio 7 is a new installer product from Altiris that combines Windows Installer and WiseScript technologies to give you flexibility in installation authoring. Create installations for desktop, server, web or mobile platforms with features that support the latest technologies including Microsoft* Windows Vista, 64-bit, virtualization and more.

YOUR CHOICE: WINDOWS INSTALLER OR WISESCRIPT
It's your choice: create an installation using the technology that best fits your requirements: Windows Installer or WiseScript. Build either a fully-functional .MSI or WiseScript installation with a few mouse clicks. The complexities of Windows Installer are simplified and incorporated into the intuitive interface, so you can easily build an installation without understanding the complicated inner workings of Windows Installer. And WiseScript has been used in thousands of setup.exe installations with reliable results.

SUPPORT FOR NEW TECHNOLOGIES
We work closely with Microsoft to integrate the latest technologies into our products, such as Microsoft Windows Vista, the Microsoft .NET Framework, 64-bit support, XML Web services, no-touch deployment and more. If you're developing applications for the .NET Framework, you can work directly in Visual Studio .NET or author in a standalone environment.

Ability to check for the presence of Windows Vista on target machines
Compatibility with Internet Explorer 7.0
Ability to minimize reboots using the Restart Manager Infrastructure in Vista
Access control for general user and administrator privileges
Enhancements for digital signature support
