You don't need smart / user accounts to use the latest version of notebook. We've got the latest version of notebook and have activated them all by license key.

You can install the v12 drivers over the top of 11.4 if you wish to run both older 680 and SM680s.

 

The only issue we have run into is that you cannot export/convert smart notebook files to powerpoints if you have Office 2016 or higher installed from smart notebook 11.4

 

V17 or higher export ok with office 2016.
