    "BLOATED INSTALLERS!"

    March 28, 2012  |   By privatejohn

    Version: InstallShield Express 12.0

    Pros

    -Empty Field-

    Cons

    -The OLDER InstallShield (Like InstallShield Express 2.11) Were Good
    -VERY Bloated Programs (Imagine A Compiler With Almost A 300MB Or More?)
    -LAGS Are Constant Than Its Purpose To Build Simple Yet Excellent Installers.
    -Defective Output!

    Summary

    Find Other Installer-Building Software, Like Inno Setup, NSIS, Bytessense Install Maker etc... This Version Of InstallShield Is A Way VERY BLOATED, Good For NOTHING, But CRAPWARE.

    If You Have Plans For Creating Installers With InstallShield, Don't. Instead, Use The Mentioned Competitors Up.

    "Never use InstallShield"

    October 20, 2009  |   By collinsauve

    Version: InstallShield Express 12.0

    Pros

    No Pros. Terrible product.

    Cons

    - Non-Intuitive UI for creating installers. Very difficult to make installers with large amounts of files
    - Bloated installers. Installers are very large.
    - Many defects.

    Summary

    More Cons:
    - Knowledge Base missing a lot of information
    - Support does not respond to email requests in a timely manner
    - Forums are not administrated on a consistent basis -- some issues go without answers for MONTHS
    - Scripting language is proprietary, clumsy and restrictive

    If you are thinking about buying using software, Don't. Ever. Seriously.
