@Dashrender Im the boss in my team...If my lot disagreed they would say so and if they can put together a valid argument I respect them more...

@Nara Sophos RED appliances. We have around 80 now and its revolutionised the way we work

We use it as a backend for our 365 e-discovery and archive/legal hold portal. Our partner built it for us - took 2-3 days. Amazing stuff they give you in Office 365 that few people realise is in the solution

@Dashrender As Scott says its risk and complexity. If your connection to ADFS goes (ISP failure, maintenance works etc) your users lose connectivity to 365 services. To have failover you are relying on low TTL DNS change/propagation or an expensive failover DNS solution.

Plus the cost of Windows licensing for proxy and ADFS devices, resources on the VM host or physical hardware. Then the cost of the same at your failover site

Removing it was one of my happier days...

@lance 2012 is still pretty poor compared to Unitrends and Veeam is my default choice for VM backup. BE 2014 is "imminent" but Im not even looking at it.

@Hubtech or taken out the back and lectured to with a cattle prod by their team;-)
@aaron-studer It might be worth turning it on its head, by that I mean pointing out that unless you can prove your documentation is the irrefutable source of all knowledge its never going to be referred to in that way. We already have a source of (nearly) all knowledge its called google-fu

Might be worth having a look at the sync n share providers. Most will do what you need but Encryption isn't on man of their lists. Egnyte will integrate with Sophos SGN and I think Box are doing the same

In my previous life we were rolling Egnyte to over 30,000 users with plans to grow that to 140,000...I was just talking to an ex-colleague this morning who said its going really well. The solution puts a NAS type device in your LAN and does a sync to cloud but has an offline personal cloud function and works on almost anything
