https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/arcgis-pro-software-configuration-for-organization/m-p/1534219#M87875 <P>Hello, we are in the process of planning to migrate our centralized GIS data to a VM and I would like to know whether it is preferred or necessary to still install ArcGIS Pro on each end-user's local machine in addition to the VM and why? I am a new GIS administrator for my organization and have had GIS data stored/managed on VMs in my past positions, and ArcGIS Pro was also stored on each end-user's machine as well. I am preparing for a conversation with the 3rd party tech company that will implement the new system and would appreciate any input. Personally, I think that the software should be configured on each user's machine as well since this is what I am used to, but I'm uncertain of the pros/cons for only configuring software on the VM vs on the VM + local machines. Thanks in advance.</P> Mon, 02 Sep 2024 20:09:53 GMT NiColahh 2024-09-02T20:09:53Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/arcgis-pro-software-configuration-for-organization/m-p/1534219#M87875 <P>Hello, we are in the process of planning to migrate our centralized GIS data to a VM and I would like to know whether it is preferred or necessary to still install ArcGIS Pro on each end-user's local machine in addition to the VM and why?
