Puchisoft Dispatcher


Dispatcher creates a fully functional Updater executable for you to include with your software. All you need is a website (HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP), and your users will be kept up to date. Dispatcher automatically generates binary patch data and uploads it to your website(s) whenever you release a new version.

When the Updater is run on a user's PC, your software will automatically be patched to its latest version! The Updater can be run in a variety of ways, including to only pop-up when an update is available. Deploying powerful Updaters has never been this simple!
