Application Discovery We determine versions, quantities, configuration and other technical data of software installed on all systems
within the network and gather information on every application that needs to be packaged and deployed.
We prepare applications for deployment by converting them to the MSI package format or by creating MSI Transform
in accordance with agreed application packaging standards. Moreover, we can deliver Linux and MacOS packages.
All delivered application packages are tested on target platforms in an environment equal to customers’
testing environment and verified to meet the requirements.

THEY ARE ALREADY USING PACE SUITE!
We find PACE Suite very
helpful in our packaging pro-
cess, because the tool is very
user friendly and easy to use.
Also when we have problems
with the “heavier” packaging
tools (like Wise or Flexera)
that an application doesn’t
work, because they failed to
capture some info... PACE
always saves the day!
