We make life easy for IT departments. SOFTTAILOR is the application packaging expert in your IT department with the concentrated power of an entire team. With a dedicated application packaging team and accessibility for easy coordination.
Our packages have a reject rate of less than 1% and are quality assured with a 4-eyes check. In our knowledge database, we find the right tricks for almost every application based on over 15 years of packaging experience. If there is a problem, voting is quick and easy.
You get working packages and when you book acceptance and roll-out, the result is an integrated process in which we take care of the troubleshooting and you can enjoy the result.
We package with the PowerShell wrapper from the PowerShell App Deploy Toolkit, PSADT for short. One of the many advantages is that your software packages work for almost all software distributions. Particularly attractive for organizations that distribute software with various solutions.
Software packaging is one of the biggest bottlenecks in patch management. If you have quick access to high-quality individual application packages, the path to patch management, as required by your CISO, is not far off.
You can certainly wait a bit longer to question your software packaging, but your backlog won't get any smaller.
That's why: Let's talk application packaging. Onboarding usually only takes a week.
As an IT department, you don't do application packaging “on the side.” We are your partner for packaging up to the entire application lifecycle process, on which you can rely so that endpoints and users are promptly supplied with the latest applications. All services can be booked individually and can be combined with each other.
For applications whose patch management cannot be automated by our tools, we carry out regular update checks so that you don't miss a patch in the race to fix the vulnerability.
Check for updates at specified intervals
Rating by type (feature or security update) and urgency
The result of the evaluation is to ensure high-quality preparation for subsequent packaging in the form of the installation instructions. We guide your application managers through the process using tools so that annoyed app owners are a thing of the past and the package meets exactly your requirements.
Coordination with app owners
Tool-supported guidance of the application owner through the process
Preparation of installation instructions
The result is the installation package for the automated installation of an application, including automatically created package documentation and installation instructions.
Installation package packaged in PSADT format according to customer specifications
Package capable of entering the system context from any original format
With PSADT independent of the software distribution solution, e.g. for Intune, MECM, DSM, Neurons, Baramundi, Empirum, etc.
4-Eyes Check
Provision of a customer portal for ordering and status tracking
The integration of the installation package into a deployment system (e.g. Intune) ensures that it can be distributed, installed and tested on appropriate target systems (e.g. Windows 11).
Integrate the application package in accordance with integration guidelines
Create applications, groups, and deployments
Deployment technical test
All of our packages have been tested multiple times in our environment. On request, we can also carry out the technical inspection in your area. Technical approval can only be carried out by the person responsible for the application. Here, too, we support your app owners and take over process control.
Technical inspection in customer environment
Coordination and support of technical approval by app owners
The final and one of the most critical steps to deploy the packaged application to endpoints. Important: Make sure to carry out a pilot first and then carry out the production rollout in several rings to reduce the risk of incompatibility and system failures.
Pilot and productive roll-out in several rings
Monitoring roll-outs
Proactive troubleshooting of technical issues
We take on the role of technical application owner and take on the following tasks for each application, including: writing the installation instructions, monitoring licensing, technical and, as far as possible, technical approval of software packages, 2nd and 3rd level support, ticket processing.
PowerShell scripts are indispensable helpers in endpoint management and application packaging in particular. Our scripting team records your requirements and implements them for you.
In-house
Someone from your team does the packaging on the side, but is not an expert. Many hours of trial and error allow the packaging backlog to grow and the know-how lies with a single team member.
Freelancer
The freelancer is pretty good, but your packaging depends on one person and he wants permanent workload. You are not sure whether the methods are really best practice.
offshore
Cheap, but there are always misunderstandings and mistakes, so that your time is strained with voting rounds and deadlines cannot be met.
System house
You can't get hold of anyone, the packages are waiting for them and they don't seem to be able to package software better than you.

Software packaging is our namesake. For 20 years, we have been helping to shape trends and technologies in this special discipline. Our customers range from medium-sized companies to KRITIS organizations to corporations with 100,000 devices and 1,000 applications. The result is a process that is very quick to set up, easy for all sides to live and delivers perfect results.
To ensure consistently high quality, we onboard a maximum of four new customers every month across all managed services.
How do you do packaging today? How many applications do you have? Which systems should be used to distribute the packages?
Together, we will work out the best division of labor for you and which packaging activities will be carried out by us and by you. Our goal is for us to fit seamlessly into your team and to enable collaboration without the need for constant coordination.
We set up the file exchange and define the communication channels. If you wish, you will have access to our packaging portal, which you can use to order packaging and track the status of your packages in progress.
In a workshop, we add your individual requirements to our best practice templates so that your software packages all meet your standards in the future. This increases quality and traceability so that coordination efforts, duplicate work and troubleshooting are reduced.
We can complete the onboarding within a week and are still designed in such a way that we fit in seamlessly. We are always happy because no company or application landscape is the same and we are proud that “our” customers get better software packages faster.
Years of excellent work with predictive solutions that work have already saved us a lot of time and nerves. It is not for nothing that our team always says: “Can't we hire SOFTTAILOR for this? ”

Die Migrating to Windows 11 This necessarily means an increased workload in software packaging, which overwhelms many companies. As part of the migration, it makes sense, on the one hand, to automate software packaging for Windows 11 with tools such as Patch My PC or Robopack and, on the other hand, to place the packaging, integration and roll-out of further applications in the hands of a specialized service provider such as SOFTTAILOR. With our comprehensive managed services, we cover the entire application lifecycle management for Windows 11.
Because our software packaging team almost exclusively includes software packages in PSADT format created, they are independent of software distribution and can be distributed with many UEM solutions and software distributions. Although we have focused our service portfolio on Microsoft and Ivanti, we can therefore also provide high-quality software packages for the Baramundi Management Suite, Aagon ACMP, Matrix42 Empirum. With Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management, a variety of finished software packages can also be provided regardless of the distribution solution, so that you can tick off on software packaging and distribution.
