Because the long-term success of any software product depends largely on the vendor's ability to quickly and reliably push data updates, patches, and bug fixes to its customers' computers, it's imperative that today's independent software vendors (ISVs) have an automatic and reliable way to do that. Download this white paper from Macrovision for an in-depth look at the updating requirements of product managers, end users, and administrators, and discover what you need to know about both the client and server components of an effective updating solution. The paper is designed to help you decide whether you should commit your own developer resources to creating an updating solution from scratch, or whether you should purchase a third-party updating solution such as Macrovision's FLEXnet Publisher Update Service Module.
