Sure no problem. Going to go with E3 specifically because of this:

Please note: with E1 you can only view Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and 
OneNote files online. With E3 you can both edit and view these files 
online.

This was a big selling point for the E3 plan. Also in our situation the 
client is non-profit, so the prices are significantly reduced.

synchronization



Hi Chris, do you mind me asking what plan you're looking at?   I was 
thinking the same for a small business client, moving them from internally 
hosted SBS 2008 to 365 Plan E1 ($8/month/per user).  I see the P1 or E3 
plans too, but not sure if E3 is worth it for about 18 users.

Thanks

Subject: Office 365 and AD synchronization

Getting ready to migrate a small office environment to office 365. Domain 
is 2008 R2, only 10 users. I'm reading through all the documentation and 
specifically looking at the requirement for a separate machine to host the 
Directory Synchronization tool. Anyone here do this yet with a small 
office? Just curious as to the load on the box. I'm going to create a VM 
for this but see that the minimum requirements are 4G RAM and 70G of disk 
space. That seems high to me for something like this in a very small 
environment. Curious to hear what others have seen after doing this in a 
similar environment. 

Also just starting to read about single sign-on. So using the AD Sync tool 
doesn't give you single-sign on? It just gets your users and groups up to 
Office 365? For what purpose, if the credentials are synched? That's what 
I don't understand yet, but I'm not done reading yet, so maybe that will 
come. So if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process? 

Thanks,
