Software projects are inherently complex, and creating a build process process can be fraught with errors and oversights. FinalBuilder is a powerful Automated Build & Release Management tool, making it easy to define and maintain a reliable and repeatable build process.

Traditionally, developers have used DOS batch files or general purpose scripting tools to automate builds. Batch files and scripts are typically difficult to maintain, difficult for people to understand and suffer from a lack of proper error handling. It can often take a long time to evolve a batch file or script to the point where it is reliable enough for use, whereas automating the build process with FinalBuilder is quick and easy. Anyone can maintain a build process with FinalBuilder.

FinalBuilder will help you to :

• Save time and money - automated builds are typically much quicker than manual builds, sometimes cutting something that took a day down to minutes
• Allow anyone in the team to run a build - FinalBuilder is so easy to use, so you won't need a "build guru" team member to run all your builds
• Improve the quality of your releases - FinalBuilder cuts the human error factor substantially, automating the boring repetitive tasks
• Have a record of what was built when - FinalBuilder logs the output from all the tools it calls, and the logs from previous builds are archived
