Does anything really special you customized your installer to do

Your application looks like any other native app on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris. On Windows JExpress creates a native EXE for you.

If you like, you can also simply copy the installers and distribution files to a CD or DVD. If you need something really special you can easily customize your installers and updaters using Java.

JExpress produces both native and pure Java installers and updaters, and distributes them online. Native installers include the exact JVM your application needs. The Pure Java installer gives you a single file that is 100% cross platform for systems that already have java.

Regardless of which installer your customer chooses, it downloads and runs quickly because it only contains the classes your application actually uses. Your customers will be happy to see a compact system that doesn't waste disk space, and you'll have less load on your server. Try JExpress to see how it works.
