| How should I decide between Installer2GO and Setup2GO? |
If you decide to use the Windows Installer (MSI) technology, your decision is made. You should choose the Installer2GO. If it doesn't matter to you, or if you don't know much about the Windows Installer technology, we recommend that you decide based on the following:
You should consider using Setup2GO:

You should consider using Installer2GO:
* if your have large product to install;
* if your product depends on run-time software components such as Visual Basic Runtime, MFC Runtime, etc...;

| What's the advantage for buying a Small Site License? |
| A Small Site License entitles an organization to receive one copy of the distribution software. This copy may be installed and used on up to 25 computers in one company, plus full year subscription that includes all product updates, new versions, and technical support. |

| What's the advantage for buying an Unlimited Site License? |
An Unlimited Site License entitles an organization to receive one copy of the distribution software and to duplicate the software for any number of people or workstations within the corporation, plus full year subscription that includes all product updates, new versions, and technical support.
If there are more than 25 staffs in your corporate, it is really a cheaper way for buying an Unlimited Site License at once. Because the Unlimited Site License price is lower than the sum price of Single Licenses, and you even have licenses available for the new coming staffs. |

| How to install MS Access Runtime using Installer2Go? |
Installer2Go does have support for ODBC drivers and Data Sources. However, Installer2Go currently does not have any internal support for Microsoft Access 97/2000/XP/2003 runtimes.
There are some ways to add the runtime to your installation if you require it:
1. Contact Sagekey Software (http://www.sagekey.com) for assistance with this need. Sagekey Software has Access runtime installers already created for purchase that can be added to your current installation project.
2. Contact Logico Solutions (http://www.logico-solutions.com; see Add-ins/Extras section) for assistance with this need. Logico Solutions has Installing Microsoft Access Applications White Paper document. This document describes how to use Installer2Go to install Microsoft Access applications.
