Wise Package Studio ?? (Windows 7?)
We haven’t seen any updates to Wise Package Studio 7 since April 2008. Is Wise Package Studio dead on the vine? I have seen some recent posts on various sites around concerns whether Wise Package Studio has a future.
Well I am proud to say I heard it from the horse’s mouth, Symantec/Altiris will be releasing a version of Wise Package Studio soon that will support Windows 7. The release will be out near the end of October possibly early November. It wasn’t clear whether it is an update or full product release, but I will post an update once I know more.
