Yup! My comments are based on the experience before device-based was available, since that sounded like what the original poster was commenting on. I remember the installs hanging
if I moved too quickly and missed one of the "accept" dialogues.

Thanks Chris,
Glad to hear about reliability in 80+ apps at once over wifi, that’s a great data point.
It sounds like you are using user based app assignment, because as I describe in this thread, device based app assignment (DBAA) is the way to go, and never requires user interaction with a device or use of an Apple ID to install apps. I know
the folks at Cherry Creek ISF are up on this.

Ours is working great, with the only exception being spots with poor wi-fi performance. If I'm doing a more than a few at a time, I've learned to move the iPads closer to locations with strong signals.
The difference between our set-ups may be that we're using Lightspeed for our MDM.
One other quirk: the first time we deploy to a new/wiped device, we have to go very slowly and choose to install just one or two things. It seems to take time for the Apple ID to be recognized, and I have to put in the password about three times
to accept the multiple license agreements that come up! After that first pass, everything is very slick and I can deploy 80+ apps during the second pass.

Oh my. I thought AC2/Managed Distribution Licenses were going to offer a better experience with managing our iPads.
I was wrong.
I have had very poor results in trying to install more than a very few apps at a time (and at least one of our schools has 100 or so apps to get installed). Sometimes it stalls downloading apps, and sometimes it crashes or stalls during "Transferring placeholder...".
In both cases, AC2 needs to be force quit.
I can reliably use Blueprints only for installation of profiles.
We're on 10.11.3, and AC2 2.1(3B42).
Anyone have a reliable workflow?
