In what edition is available the Installer Analytics?

How can I enable the Analytics in my setup package?

Why the Analytics does not display information regarding the installations?

The Installer Analytics may not display information regarding the installation if:

  • there is a security setting that may block sending data to the http://collect.installeranalytics.com
  • In case the only if the user accepts your license terms option is selected for the "Report installation data", the Analytics will not send any in case your application is installed silent or with Basic UI. This is happening because there is no LicenseAgreementDlg displayed.
  • The machine where the setup is running does not have an active internet connection.

How long will it take for collected analytics data to be processed and visible in my account page?

The collected analytics data should be visible in your Installer Analytics account in just a few minutes.

Do I get any errors when the Analytics subscription will end?

No, you will not be prompted with any errors during installation. Just the data gathered by the Installer Analytics will not be visible in your analytics account.
