Eventually they will also acquire Flexera, and packaging tools will ultimately come way down in price. It's a sad loss of a good product, but times have moved on. It's now about delivery (virtual apps, virtual desktop), who uses what app and when and why. Tool sets that account for more than just packaging apps, and app conflict management are available and gaining prominence as business needs to understand why they have the apps that they do, and if there is a reason to keep them. Over and above that, give it a couple of years and MSI installers will be a rarity, with the majority either being delivered as a streamed app or via web.
