Benefits of Automatic Software Updating
The Internet has created a highly competitive market where users expect immediate results; the prize often goes to the company that reacts the most quickly to changes in user needs and perceptions. In order to streamline software deployment, it is becoming increasingly desirable for software authors to incorporate automated updating abilities into their software.
Software developers, network administrators and end-users alike share in the benefits of update-enabled software. Developers appreciate it for the control it gives them over software that has already been deployed. Network administrators benefit from improved security and better control of network nodes. End-users see update-enabled software as an assurance of quality-a symbol that the developer is there to stand behind their product.

Independent software vendors, consulting companies, IT departments, or any organization that distributes timely software and data can benefit from automating the electronic update process using TrueUpdate.
Competitive Position
Unlike hosted services where the update technology is beyond your control, TrueUpdate is uniquely designed to provide full control over every part of the update process. Every last detail, from the update method to the actual servers where everything is hosted, is entirely within the developer’s control. There’s no need to rely on the uncertain future of a proprietary web-based update service, pay exorbitant annual fees or wait helplessly during downtimes you are powerless to resolve.
Unlike other solutions that are limited to simply downloading and running a file, TrueUpdate’s client can perform a full range of system changes. In addition, because the updates are client-originated using a unique client-pull architecture, with no identifying information needing to be transmitted at all, TrueUpdate completely avoids the legal privacy issues that can limit the application of other services.
TrueUpdate can be configured to work in any situation, the way the developer and their company want to work, rather than being shoe-horned into a generic update system as with other services.
