Users vs Admins, again..

Non-Technical Threads Chatting over the Back Fence

I have seen ballpark figures of 1:100, but I know of installations
where it is more like 1:1000 or 1:2000, if they have taken full
advantage of stuff like ZCM etc.

What are your numbers and please note if you count positions of a
beancounter charagter (CIO) as “admins” :slight_smile:

So my response to Anders’s comment is…

Well we have a bunch of different apps that are administered by diff
people in our IT dept, but for the core NOS, file access, etc, we are
running around 1 to just over 200, 1 to over 300 if you consider the
3rd ‘admin’ that won’t do much w/ our directory stuff cuz he “doesn’t
want to screw anything up”.

Thanks and that is an environment where ZCM is heavily utilised.
