Chocolatey would be an option yes, but the point is that the software must be available from the company portal.
To my knowledge you cannot publish a script in there? Unless ofcourse you covert the script to an .exe file and make a win32 app from that, but that seems like a bit of a workaround.
So if you have suggestions that is not chocolatey, i'm all ears.

Hi,
In my opinion chocolatey is not a work around but a nice feature 🙂
Please take a look at my blog where I am explaining how you couldd use the company portal app to let non-admin users, install software (based on chocolatey scripts)
