Depending on his setup, he wouldn't /make/ that much, he's /billing/ that much. My org's rates default to around 200/hr for that kind of work, FWIW. And we're 'cheap' in our marketplace as well. -Original Message- From: David Lum david@nwea.org Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2012 17:58:24

I don't '+1', but if I did, I would have, to this. Those '5 minute' calls and emails are a big thing we factor in. Yes, it's 'customer service', but it's time that a billable person is often assigned elsewhere, and thus extra to be fitted in. Engagements are rarely 'done and gone'.

@Brian - I hear ya, but highly unlikelywe are a Cisco shop, for a number of reasons. We should have already moved to Unity Connection, but its a long story. Ideally we'd move from Unity to Unity Connection before the Exchange migration, but that may not be possible from a timing and project

I played around with Lync for a bit, and one of the things I seem to remember is that having the archiving role on the same server as everything else is an unsupported config for production. I could be remembering incorrectly, however. My shop has fewer than 50 users, so I wasn't particularly
