The AdminStudio Package Feed Module is the largest resource of its kind. Our goal is to provide the most comprehensive resource covering those applications for which we can provide the best experience.
While there is no such thing as a catalog that addresses every application you care about, it is our goal to get as close as reasonably possible. A key criterion for inclusion is that the vendor setup file must be publicly available. Unfortunately, many vendors gate their application installers behind a login which prevents inclusion. In order for us to become immediately aware of new versions, download them, scan them, test our silent command lines, etc. we require direct access to the vendor setup.
It is also highly preferable that the setup support a silent command line. Given the setup link, we can make such a determination ourselves, but the value of inclusion is diminished in cases where the vendor does not allow for a means of silent installation. That said, even awareness of a new version and the ability to download it has some clear value in AdminStudio where you can repackage or convert any installers that don't support silent installation.
