PackBot enables IT professionals to convert MSI and non-MSI setups to other formats, using a preconfigured pool of virtual machines. By using a combination of different options, the following scenarios are achievable:
•Repackaging of a single app on a virtual machine.
•Silent bulk repackaging of many packages at once.
•Bulk conversion from MSI and EXE to App-V 4.6, App-V 5.x, and Thin-App.
The flexibility of workflows is backed by smaller features which help to setup and configure apps automatically:
•The automatic recognition of silent command lines (for recognized setup types).
•The ability to make manual post-installation configurations.
•A dynamic and efficient management of idle resources to minimize overall repackaging time.
•The automatic use of the current RayPack profile, exclusion lists, and shared resources.
•A parallel processing of tasks.
•The automatic gathering of log files and analysis of exit codes.
