Can I use Visual Update if the kit was not built with InstallForge ?

Hello,
I'm a very small company which distributed a desktop software, used in aproximately 200-300 places.
The inial KIT was not built with InstallForge, but was a simple msi file and some other files and folders.
I used to distribute the updates manually, providing new SQL server scripts and new executable and instructions to be copied manually.
But now I intend to create an automatic update system.
I have several questions for you:
1. Can I use Visual Update to automatic update the application if the initial kit was not created with InstallForge ?
2. How much does Visual Update costs in my case.
