Maybe we can do this a different way. I set up a simple little web-based survey to find out Exchange Admin staffing at different organizations. I would appreciate any input readers would like to offer. The results are also viewable. I am not selling this information, writing a book or anything of the sort. I have told my boss that we need more staff and he say's "prove it". Someone did point me to a great TCO article if anyone is interested - <http://www.sytel.com/services/benchmark_tco.asp> http://www.sytel.com/services/benchmark_tco.asp The survey is at: http://66.92.148.177 <http://66.92.148.177> Brian -----Original Message----- From: MSExchange.Org Discussion [mailto:MSExchange.OrgDiscussion@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, April 20, 2002 9:23 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] How Many Exchange Admins Does It Take.... http://www.MSExchange.org/ No, it's not a joke - sorry... I had seen an article numerous years ago that defined an industry average of how many Exchange Admins it took to provide care and feeding to how many Exchange/Outlook users. That article said one Exchange Admin per 1000 users was a pretty good guideline. I am desperate for some sort of opinion or credible source to either validate that number or state a new number. Obviously, everything is relative, blah, blah, blah... but there should be some kind of guideline/baseline out there to work with. Any ideas?
