It's a great tool. The documentation available in the internet could definitely be more broad, still, it is a high quality piece of work.

I'm just getting the hang of it. It's possibilities seem endless.
BTW, just because you fail to educate yourself on how to properly use something, does not mean that you get to give it a low rating. You are the problem with all quality-based ratings systems. So, thanks -- lazy.

Love the WiX toolset. It's powerful and flexible. The included tools like Heat are great for quickly getting an installer built. Works very well with TFS 2012 builds as well.
There is a slight learning curve involved, but I was up and running and creating installers in an hour or so.

Since VS2012 forced us to use WiX instead of Setup & Deployment, this seems like a poor replacement. Simple tasks like picking up dependencies, which MSBuild can manage when it builds projects, aren't even provided or apparently deemed important, let alone automated. Examples on the web start with 'manually edit your project file'. Very poor show. So much for IDE.

Been using WiX for about a year now and I love it. There's a little bit of a learning curve, but it's very powerful. As for the people complaining that it crashes VS2012 - I've been using WiX 3.6 and 3.7 with VS2012 since it went RTM and I haven't seen those issues. It's been pretty bullet proof for me.

Well first time I've ever used WiX, but have heard a lot of good things about it - but my first impression is not good. Have to totally agree with Matt Mcguire and repeat what he said - "not sure if VS2012 or WIX. but VS freezes when saving a new WIX project, if it's a new unsaved solution" - done my first "hello word" installer and have now lost it, as it won't save !!

not sure if VS2012 or WIX. but VS freezes when saving a new WIX project, if it's a new unsaved solution. if a new project is added to an existing solution (or one that is already saved) it works just fine.

Environment:

I installed Wix 3.7. When I build in VS2008, it crashes visual studio.
I installed Wix 3.6. When I build in VS2008, it works successfully.

Buggy. I can't use it for Win XP and VS 2008. VS Crash when compiling the project!

installed perfectly (windows 7 x64) without any previous Wix installation. Integrated with VS2010 after closing/reopen Visual Studio.
Integrated nicely with VS2012 too, Windows Installer XML project types appears in the 'new project' dialog. Everything's fine.
WiX is "teh win" and has been for years.

Wix37 (without prior version installed) FAILED to install (Windows 7 x86).
After Wix36 install, THEY Wix37 would install.
NOTE: Neither Wix36 nor Wix37 would successfully "setup" VS2012 (which, as we all know is THE reason we're turning to WiX in the first place).

Opera does not support ClickOnce X
To install this application, save it and then open it. Opening it directly from Opera will not work correctly.
