Our users say...
We've been using a product called FinalBuilder since last December, and in fact it is so good that in addition to daily builds we've pretty much started using it instead of scripts for routine system administration stuff for us (like moving files around for backup purposes, etc.) I highly recommend it.

FinalBuilder is for software production what VB was for Windows software development!

The productivity over Nant scripts is phenomenal. I'd guess I've spent 2 weeks learning Nant and then a further 2 working days copy/pasting and testing this software projects Nant automated build, while [FinalBuilder] had me up and working in less than 3 hours.

We started using FinalBuilder 3 about a year ago. FB works intuitively and provides a rich set of automating, scripting and debugging tools. It has saved us countless hours of the type of manual drudgery that programmers naturally hate. It makes our custom processes for builds, releases, betas, patches and OEM versions faster and more reliable. We recently upgraded to FinalBuilder 4. It is even better. The new PropertySet feature automates the one thing we couldn't easily do with FB3. We have found the FB staff responsive to problem reports and feature requests through email and on their newsgroups. We strongly recommend the product and the company.

I use FinalBuilder for every TopStyle and FeedDemon build, and wouldn't live without it.

I'm a huge FinalBuilder fan. I think it may very well be one of my favorite pieces of software out there. It's incredibly useful, hopelessly easy to use, and very powerful. All software development organizations worth their salt should be doing daily, reproducible, controlled builds, and FinalBuilder makes it so easy it's not even funny. Can't recommend this product enough.

Just wanted to say that I think FinalBuilder is a great product. I'd hate to have to count the number of hours it has saved me!

Since 1996 I have been responsible for an object oriented Delphi development environment here at LEC. Each time we implemented new features or corrected bugs, we had to release a new version of this environment. At times there were more than 70 developers using this environment. Therefore a stable and thorough release procedure was needed. This procedure filled more than 3 tightly written pages and had to followed step by step when releasing. With FinalBuilder I have been able to remove this manual procedure. So now - instead of following a step by step description - i simply push a button in FinalBuilder !! Now I can release a new version within an hour. Before FinalBuilder it could take most of a day.

FinalBuilder is one truly indispensable tool in my toolset. I will no longer work on a project without using FinalBuilder in some capacity. Try this product.

Now that I'm delivering multiple customized versions of my software to various commercial partners, FinalBuilder is showing its power. Not only I no longer make mistakes when building these different versions but the whole process takes minutes instead of consuming hours. I don't know how I could do without FinalBuilder now that I have started using intensively.

FinalBuilder takes an action that many programmers are currently doing either manually and/or with batch files and automates it in a very easy to use and nicely polished user interface. The way FinalBuilder is changing our build process reminds me a lot of how CodeSite (from Raize Software) changed our debugging process. Highly recommended...it's the RAD way to build.

I would like to say that this has proven to be one incredible product, solving many headaches with regards to automating our build and distribution process for 3 separate products. Vincent has been incredible in responding to feature requests. I recommend this product very, very highly.

I have been using FB during the product beta to control our software suite build process (which included several .exes, .dlls, plugin modules, two install utilities, and help files amongst other things). FB has worked flawlessly during beta, and has turned a time consuming (30 minutes previously) (and potentially error prone) process into a no-brainer (between 2 and 5 minutes, partial/full build). It even allows me to update our VCS, notify our integration team and beta testers of the new build, and FTP the files. Vincent's timely and active support indicates his commitment to FB, .. newly requested features usually appear within a couple of builds. I would strongly recommend FinalBuilder to anyone with anything but the most simple software project under development!

FinalBuilder is the best software development tool for doing builds. FinalBuilder now manages approx. 50 builds of our database software using several languages including Delphi, C++Builder, VB and .NET. Its all done with a single script that takes a few minutes to run. The output that FB generates makes it easy to track and isolate any problems thay may occur during the process.
Congratulations on a fantastic product.
