From research on creating a MSI package for deployment it seems most installations that are for centralized deployment on a remote computer are somewhat unique (captured tracking of all file system and registry changes on installation for the .MSI creation). So possibly the best option might be for the user to use a MSI Package Builder to create an .MSI for silent install from the existing Unisoft installation .EXE file delivered (for example: for ProntoVIEW-MARKUP the installation file is   VIEW5.EXE).

Here is a YouTube video that illustrates creating .MSI from an existing installation .EXE :

Searching the web there are quite a few free and paid MSI builder software packages for example ECMO Software https://emcosoftware.com/msi-package-builder , AppDeploy Repackager by Kace, etc.
