So, tell us, what are your office stats like!
Now that i am NA for our new office, which before was 5 people, and now it is up to 23 people at one time, i have been very closely monitoring our internet access.
With our new provider, we pay by the /mb for bandwidth so of course i am watching anything that could cause excessive usage, like blocking downloading of media files and such, of course people find ways around this, to which i then find in reports and block it.
As it stands, right now, with say an average of say 14 people working between 7am-4pm and 4 people working 3pm-11pm and 2 people working 11pm-7am, we are using about 9G of bandwidth a day.
Now i really am not sure if that seems like a lot or not as i don't have much to compare it to versus the past 5 people as we just had 2 4mb/1mb cable lines and i didn't monitor anything much.
Some stats from the firewall system:
