We have 50 users in our office, so not too large. However, it's a day trader group, so up-time and service is absolutely critical. even minutes of downtime could cost us thousands. That's one of the reasons I would like to move to a cloud solution with Microsoft.

Thanks for the tips. I'll definitely have a chat with Bell/Telus to put me in a better bargaining position.

Fortunately for me, management is never a tough sell for technology. The company makes a ton of money, and the top brass LOVES their new gadgets and toys. ;)

Lucky you. I'm all the other way around. We're still a "medium" company at ~2000 users from an IT standpoint, but we're pretty tight on money these day. Job losses, no hardware upgrade, servers maintenance expiring with not upgrade plan..

Anyway, do no hesitate if you want anymore info n O365. There are far better people than me with Hybrid environments but I can still hold my end of the stick on the matter. I'll gladly help a fellow sysadmin!

Much appreciated! I'll keep you posted on how things pan out. The more I'm looking at Sharepoint online, the more I'm thinking it may be a good direction for us, combined with BCM 2013 for Outlook.

Stay the hell out of the cloud then. Think about this. What happens when your internet goes down? Or some bonehead at Amazon throws another leap year bug and your service is down for 2 days? Users can't even retrieve contacts to call them.

I'll tell you this. I'll never ever trust my stuff to the "cloud". Not when it is my ass when things go south.
