Thanks for your post James, we are already on the trial and are liking what we are seeing so far. Just going through the motion of getting other people experience just so i can report back to the powers that be

Hi All, We are currently looking at Microsoft Office 365 and was wondering if any other schools are using it? If so would they mind me getting in touch to have a chat about? Thanks in advance John

I thought you would say something like this, i would prefer a single tenant for simplicity and i am going to fight the powers that be over the need for a split GAL but i thought i would ask the question to see if my thoughts were right. Thanks for your help and we do have a partner already, they have set us up on a trial so we can have a play

Thanks for this information, this was what i was thinking. If we were to setup 2 tenat's with either differnt domains or a sub-domain how would this affect single sign on? Staff would have their AD account tied to their Staff Email then if we configured a student email account for them, how would they be able to access this? Thanks in advance John

Completly agree with you on that one, we currently have to set them up a student email address as well as there staff email so the students can send them home work etc. It would be much easier with a single email address I had read this, but doesn't that stop staff from seeing each other in the address book, also if the students work out the staff email address (Which isin't hard) then they can still email them Is this possible in Office 365? Think i might have a chat with Microsoft and see what they have to say

Hi All, We are currently looking at moving to Office 365 and one of the things we want to maintain from our current setup with the council is the ability to stop students from email staff or seeing the staff address book. Is this possible in Office 365 and if so how? Thanks in advance John

I too am having the same problem, but i click ok and the program finishes loading and everything seems to be working ok
