I am currently trying to deploy Bluebeam Revu (PDF viewer and editor) to 100+ employees. The app requires Microsoft Office and some AutoCad programs, which both use Bluebeam plugins, to be closed during the installation. Her is my delema. If I deploy the Package as an 'Available' install, it is near impossible to get the majority of users to open Software Center and manually start the installation. If I deploy the Package as a 'Required' install, the percentage of possible failures increases substatially due to the fact that Office and Autocad apps are among the first things employees boot when they arrive each morning.
Does anyone have a recommendation as to how I should go about this deployment? Any insight would be appreciated.
My only other thought is to schedule the install to occur immediately after the user logs off. However, the issue I see with this is that the install takes around 5-6 minutes and would not completed if the user was logging off and then shutting down for the night which many do.
