BlackBerry Workspaces
for
Windows
Centralized Deployment

This guide provides an overview for
BlackBerry
Workspaces
system administrators about how to centrally deploy
BlackBerry
Workspaces
for
Windows
to your users. This method is useful when a large number of users require the application (for synchronizing, viewing
BlackBerry
Workspaces
protected documents, or sending protected files directly from
Microsoft Outlook
), and you want to avoid each user installing the application manually.
Most organizations use a systems management software (such as
Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager
or
Micro Focus ZENworks
) to push software to their users.
BlackBerry
Workspaces
supports such systems by offering a configurable-MSI version of
BlackBerry
Workspaces
for
Windows
. It is important to note that
BlackBerry
Workspaces
for
Windows
does not require administrator rights to operate. This means
BlackBerry
Workspaces
for
Windows
must be installed as the local user running on the computer and not as a system administrator. If multiple users work on a single computer, the
BlackBerry
Workspaces
for
Windows
application must be installed separately for each user. If you are installing the software for multiple users at once on a single computer, you do require administrator rights.
