MicrosoftIT staff headcount for O365 management?
Hi all. I have a customer who is trying to figure out How many engineers does it take to manage O365? I have NO idea how to answer this question because I'm sure that depends on several variables.
...
Natalie_H Another "it depends" here - how many users? What parts of 365 are they wanting to use? Do they need any specific internal SLAs etc?
At work we have 2 of us looking after it, although I do most of it, and it doesn't take up a lot of our time. That's about 120 staff, 700 pupils, using Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams.
If they're used to Exchange on-premise then once the migration is completed I'd say it will need a lot less of their time and attention as Exchange did (at least in my experience).
Natalie_HThank you CoasterKaty. I appreciate the additional questions I need to go back and ask, as well as the example. Good feedback 🙂
