Overview
The ionCube Package Foundry is a unique product for creating familiar and easy to use, multilingual installer programs for your web applications.
Giving existing and potential customers an application as a bundle of files
in a zip archive may
seem "good enough", but all too often this causes install problems and
user frustration, and never looks professional. IPF provides the ideal
solution, with an easy to use builder GUI that requires no scripting.
After installing, you can be producing your first product installers in
seconds, and be reaping the benefits of increased user satisfaction,
with reduced support requests from end users having problems. In addition, the
abliity to create multilingual installers, complete with custom graphics,
icons and installer version info, further enhances your product credibility
and professional image when compared to competitors still providing zip
files.
Use IPF to create installers for your web products, and give your potential and latest customers a simple and familiar install experience, not a headache!

Our clients always have problems in installing our software (and almost any PHP software solution has the same problem). So we found IPF (we use ionCube as well) and that was it, Eureka ... I can say that now LITE versions are installed in most cases without any problems and sales of course are better now.
 Good job ionCube Team!
