Mass uninstall of CC apps

With the release of CC 2014 is there a way to do a mass uninstall of the original CC apps? I only see individual uninstallers in the app folders. This is not going to work for the 50+ creative systems I manage. I could do a terminal command but trying to avoid that if I can help it as I'm not sure if I'll get all the parts and pieces.

      I've tried this out on the Mac mini I use for testing packages I build. rc46 is right. Though Adobe tells us to uninstall the applications before running the CC Cleaner tool, the tool does a great job of removing most of the existing applications that are on a system. In my test it left behind:

      Acrobat Pro XI

      ExtendScript Toolkit

      Extension Manager

      Fireworks CS6

      Flash Builder 4.7

      Gaming SDK

      Muse CC 2014

      Lightroom 5

      Scout CC

      (all but Lightroom and Scout have uninstall apps bundled with them)

      Thanks for the tip, rc!
