Multiseat Licenses for education institutions - 2 options:
Network:
- Using a centralised License Server application on a school server administrators can install Sibelius on multiple computers (more than your number of licenses) and activate licenses any connected to your network. It allows one license on your server to control deployment across your entire network and, with Classroom Control features, managing students’ files and machines is easy. Users can check out a license (e.g. for holidays) to run off the network.
- Classroom Control enables you to freeze/unfreeze student’s workstations, get scores from a workstation or send a score to one or more copies of Sibelius on the network.
- Music created anywhere can be edited and reviewed by anyone, anywhere and learning can be done in classrooms or remotely.
Teams – NEW to Education:
- Team licensing is an easy way to deploy and manage licenses for students and teachers across their own devices or school computers. Using the Admin Console you can assign and unassign licenses when students or staff join or leave and they can have Sibelius Ultimate on any of their personal devices or school use computers.
- Administrators set up Users with only the user’s name and email address (can be batch processed using CSV upload). Each User gets an invitation to create a MyAvid account and redeem a license for Sibelius Ultimate and is then provided with the downloads and entitlement to use Sibelius on any of their devices: Windows, Mac, iPhone or iPad (Android and Chromebook support coming soon).
