Hi Mats (Old mapinfo-user ??)

Take a look at this article: http://www.qgis.nl/2014/04/22/qgis-in-de-klas-onder-windows/?lang=en. It explains how to use the --configuration qualifier to make a shared environment, where each user has a private directory for plugins and set-up. If you use --configpath it's not necessary to do a "proper" installation of QGIS - just copy the different qgis directories to the user-pc - or leave the directory at a central network based share.

You can distribute your QGIS installation to the local user-pc's for performance reasons and do some cmd.exe woodoo to check for updates each time the user starts QGIS.

Hi all!
I am looking for hints on how to deploy Qgis as a desktop GIS tool for a limited number of users. My idea is to have a common program repository with plugins, a map and layer catalogue, and some basic settings, but still allow individual users to create their own work environment. In this way, updates and configuration changes need only be applied centrally, and distributed on program start to each user.
This is a windows environment on a shared corporate network.
I wish to avoid a manual installation for each user, which would be impossible to maintain and get out of sync at once.

Regards, Mats.E
