Improve patch release/installation for Meridian

Can Accruent please go back to using an msi/msu for patch installation? The current approach of releasing individual zip files of patches is really primitive. It unnecessarily introduces risk and complicates what should be a simple task.


Can you also please periodically release new Meridian (server, client) msi installers that include the patches by default. Rolling-releases are common these days and should be achievable with a solid build process.

    Meridian 2024 has a bunch of patches, some of them just for client, just for server, or both. Obsolete patches are not removed. Same files with different versions in different patches. That's not professional for a software which costs 2000€ per client.

    We will evaluate this in Q3 if this can be done with a reasonable amount of effort.
