Mac Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Don't misunderstand the Office365 status. Today we have over 500 *million* mailboxes under management. The reporting engine is overly honest - most people don't see the effect. OD4B is being replace with a new sync client, public beta is due shortly. If you've no issues....I'm astonished. Current product is beyond terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Hauter Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Waylander, if you're annoyed by slow transfer, you should consider researching private clouds, such as Sher.ly or WD solutions - they offer great file security, fast transfer speeds and various smart sync options. You will have to shell out a tad more than you would for a standard cloud storage, but you get a device you can use for streaming movies and various other purposes.

Mac Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Ahah! Hello, I wonder who you work for? You can actually get private MPLS connections to Office365 now should you need the scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted September 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 But he had me at "you'll have to shell out more" What's an MPLS connection ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Multi-Person-Limitless-SPECIAL...or multi protocol labelled switching. Definitely one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Wait. I've just realised by answering your question, I've not answered your question at all? It's just a private connection into someone else's network. MPLS is just the description of the mechanism of that connection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasdrury Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Ahah! Hello, I wonder who you work for? You can actually get private MPLS connections to Office365 now should you need the scale. Is there any difference regarding where / how the data is stored if you go for MPLS to O365? Reason I ask is I work for a large global company who are German, and they don't want to embrace the cloud atm, but for our locations in developing countries especially, office 365 would make so much sense...

Mac Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 You do get some choice - yours would be Dublin/Amsterdam. Connectivity doesn't really affect that. It's all covered by safe harbour and ISO27001 for data security/location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Back blaze. 50 quid a year, unlimited storage. Set up PCs to sync to one central location that way you only need one license. ^ Yep, agreed entirely. Now I almost daren't ask this for fear of NNMM's wrath. But - if I'm backing everything up to the home server, and Backblaze only supports Win or osx, not nas or server oses, how do I get my stuff from my proliant up to the cloud?

Mac Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Mac makes a good point - OneDrive for Business is Sharepoint in effect and they even use the Sharepoint logo in various places and in the settings. I've just logged in to look at some of the settings and spotted something I'd not noticed before - Sway. What is that all about? Presentation related in some way but I can't be bothered to look in detail at the moment. Oh and the Exchange service is showing as "degraded". Sort it out. Check out Delve too. A brilliant way to expose rubbish security settings. Hey, you've something about salaries! Mary from HR has also shared THIS DOCUMENT about salaries, maybe have a look see here? *boom*.

Mary from HR has also shared THIS DOCUMENT about salaries, maybe have a look see here? *boom*. Oddly enough I spotted Delve a few days ago after I'd fitted a new SSD and had to do a fresh installation of everything. MS were pushing it out on the Office365 login page in a big way. I wondered what it was and haven't looked properly yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to actually set up my data shares on the server Currently I have a 2tb external drive connected to the PC via USB3; I was thinking of instead connected it to the server and using it to backup the instance of data on there BUT if it is the instance on the USB drive that I want to back up to the cloud how to I go about doing that - do I have to leave it connected directly to the PC for this?
