Lab install for school environment? What are the advantages over personal install?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am a headteacher in a school in Israel where I Have some 100 students using fusion 360. We have fusion 360 installed on 25 PC's in our school Lab, additionally every student installs fusion 360 at home.

Currently, we have never used LAB install for fusion 360. 
We installed fusion on mots of our lab computers a while ago, perhaps before Lab install was available.
I Was referred by a few members to go ahead and install fusion 360 as a Lab install on our lab computers and was referred to these guides on the topic:

http://help.autodesk.com.s3.amazonaws.com/sfdcarticles/kA23A000000pOfC/Advanced%20Lab%20Installation...

However, my question is: Are there any advantages to switching all our computers to Lab install? A step like that will require some work form our school IT, uninstalling all current Fusion 360 from 25 computers and then reinstalling.
If it is worth it, we will happily do it. I am trying to find out - what are the advantages of Lab install for a school lab environment.


Would appreciate any information. Thank you!

A lab installation allows for multiple users to save their information on tje same computer. It doesn't work that way with an individual install. There are several configuration files and local user files that seem to need to be saved.  The biggest issue seems that multiple users seems to break in the account login procedure and the user never authenticates as an education user during the trial period. I want to add that the education account authentication seems to be not working and or really slow this yea .

This does not sound right to me.

Thanks for the reply @Anonymous 

I am still unclear about the advantages of lab install and whether is should really go ahead and reinstall Fusion in Lab format for all our school computers.

More information needed
