Hello,

My name is Eric Lee, and I have a 1-person software company called
CounterPunch Software. I invested about $1500.00 in Installshield and
struggled with it for about a week before I found SetupBuilder.

The setup I am building contains lots of image files; Installshield crashed
about 1 in 3 times I tried to build it.

SetupBuilder 5.0 built the setup faster and never crashed. The .msi that I
managed to get out of Installshield was about 600MB and took 15 minutes to
run.

The setup .exe that I built with SetupBuilder was about 400MB and takes
about 2 minutes to run.

My budget is very tight, but I decided to ditch Installshield in favor of
SetupBuilder because of how impressive it is.

To the SetupBuilder team - congratulations on building a wonderful product
and thank you for doing so.

Eric.
