How to deploy Miro to multiple devices in your organization
Miro offers two versions of the Microsoft Installer that IT Administrators can use to deploy Miro to multiple users across thousands of machines. One version has auto-updates, which means your users will get the updated app version as soon as it’s published. You can also choose to download without auto-updates, which means you have more control over what version of Miro your employees are using.
- Windows MSI 64 bit with auto-updates - download the app
- Windows MSI 64 bit without auto-updates - download the app
Specifications:
- Miro will be installed to %LOCALAPPDATA%. While the Miro Machine-Wide Installer is installed machine-wide, Miro itself is not. Miro app will be installed only upon user login
- Miro will be installed if it has not been previously installed by the user. The deployment tool looks for the folder “%LOCALAPPDATA%/RealtimeBoard”. If it detects traces of previous installations, the app will not be installed
