The company i work for is looking to upgrade all of its computers to have Revit 2015. We have 13 Network seats and 5 Stand-alone seats using Revit 2008. What is the best and easiest way to go about upgrading these to 2015 and then deploying them to the stations?
thank you,

I would network activate your 5 seats and combine them with your network seats, then create a deployment to install the network version on all of your Engineer's workstations. That way you don't have to manage different serials or network types. You might find out you don't even need as many seats and you can ultimately save yourself some money.
since your running 2008
what OS are you on?

Both replies thus far bring up good points. Kuddos to Travis and Darren!. First, you want to verify the computers meet the system requirements for Revit 2015 as follows:

Second, combining the seats to either all to StandAlone or all to Network is also a good idea so you only create one deployment of Revit 2015. Otherwise you will need to create a deployment for your Network seats and a separate deployment for your Standalone seats.
The best practices to use when creating a network deployment can be found at
