If anyone on your team has played with Lego Mindstorm then LabView is not very hard to use or to learn. But basically whatever langue you use, make sure your programmers learn it before kickoff.
Oh also if your programmer/s have only programmed in text based programming languages then LabView is not a good choice. Because while there are a lot of similarities between the two styles programming in a picture based programming language requires thinking about the programming differently. LabView programming ends up being very similar to making a tiered cake while text based programming is more like writing an instruction manual.
