Ease of management and surveillance (most such tools marketed at schools are Windows only), first class integration into active directory for user and computer account management, hardware agnostic (rules out macos), and it's already integrated into the IT team's systems and processes so switching would be a major effort.
That makes sense, thank you! I wasn't really thinking about managing "internal" computers, only in terms of "you must use this specific software on your (personal) computer", which clearly ignores huge parts of the issue.
