You can install Abaqus on a mounted network drive and configure your users' computers to run Abaqus as a client. See “Client installation on Windows” in the Dassault Systèmes Knowledge Base at www.3ds.com/support/knowledge-base.

You can use this technique to configure multiple computers to run Abaqus from a central server without installing Abaqus on each computer. The client computer must be able to access the directory containing the Abaqus installation on the network and the Abaqus license server.
