Installgen makes use of 103 configuration parameters which are used in over 7000 locations within the 61 - 82 output scripts which are generated. Installgen does more than just perform variable substitutions of configuration parameters within the output code. Significant sections of code are customized based upon the user-entered configuration parameters. The cost of making a mistake writing or modifying these scripts manually would far exceed the licensing cost of Installgen.

actually reviewing software under "User Reviews". If you know anything about oracle administration, you know that the stuff on the feature list is a pain in the a** and is not something that Oracle's installer tries to do for you. To set up Oracle with disaster recovery, you will typically pay a dba a few thousand bucks if you can even find someone that has a clue.
