Anyone syncing their AD user with O365 in Lancs yet?

[ChrisH]

Is anyone syncing their AD user with O365 in Lancs yet? Is this an option yet? Just thought I'd ask around before I made an official enquiry.

[browolf]

not yet but we hope to with our next server upgrade, probably in the summer. Tell us what they say!

[ChrisH]

They say no! It's not part of the package we're on (that they bought into) so it can't be done!

We've been doing this since setting up O365 ourselves years ago, are you telling me all staff and pupils need a different username and password to access their emails if using the Lancs O365 option? Glad I didn't take it now.

Yes, two steps forward and one back as usual

Do you get Admin access at all? Might be worth transferring it away onto your own tenancy if you can't even do AD syncing.

[browolf]

if enough people request it they might reconsider and upgrade their package.

What's funny is the option is there on the admin page as well to test if you're suitable or not.
