Thanks to those of you that answered...It is hypothetical....However, I
found another customer that uses Office 365 heavily ... said they
discovered 1 meg/sec per Microsoft Office 365 user works well in most
scenarios.  This customer has 80 users and a 100 meg/sec connection with
us.

Thank You

the data I see about usage per user appears theoretical. In that the

there is
a patient line of packets at the Internet gas pump. Nobody is
clicking at
the same time. We all know that is not the real world.

Does anyone have any experience with Office 365 hosted that can tell me
the practical bandwidth allocation (NOT in KB per month, but in
megabits/sec) for 100 users (during normal work hours) needs to be
available ?

Thank You in advance,
