Even with license servers and site licenses usually we need to install the software on each machine image. We are currently looking into Virtual Desktops, which we hope to avoid the need to install, update, and maintain the software on individual machines.

Subject: [Athen] Followup on technology images
Hi all. I have received some really good feedback from folks regarding imaging campus wide library and lab computers with the technology image of JAWS, Zoom Text, etc. Thanks! This particular comment caught my eye - "We have central server licenses for JAWS that all labs and libraries can access, and distribute K3000 firefly, R&W Gold, and Zoom Text/Magic licenses throughout. I met with a R&W Gold rep this afternoon and he acknowledged this is how they operate.
Instead of asking for all computers to be imaged with the accessible software suite, have others placed the specific software on a General Image accessible by all students at the university? If so, any pointers on how this was managed and feedback on the feasibility of it?
Thanks.
