Managed Apple IDs

If we start using the new Managed Apple IDs for our students next year, can they still logout of that ID on the ipad and login as their 'old' Apple ID to get any backup'd data?

I've been assured that this is possible.

Yes.

Yes, but then you need to ask yourself why move to managed Apple IDs in the first place. Because the students can't download apps with those Apple IDs, we'll be skipping them for now.

Thank you for the responses. This is easing some fears. If you are using a Shared Ipad you cannot login/logout iCloud but standard 1:1 you can.

For St0rMI0rD,

Yep, I agree. And that was a very good, deep discussion we had for our schools.

Does anyone know how to change your existing account that you use for creating under 13 apple IDs to the new managed apple ID account?
