    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Windows Server is scalable.

    We have approximately 20 people in my organization using this solution.

    How was the initial setup?

    Windows Server is easy to configure. However, it takes approximately three months for the full implementation.

    What about the implementation team?

    We used integrators to do the implementation of the solution. We have one technician that works on the solution.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Windows Server's whole licensing model is complex because if you have, for example, Microsoft Office and end-user applications installed on a server with a remote desktop, then the licensing can be complex. If the model could be simplified it would be better.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would recommend this solution to others.

    I rate Windows Server an eight out of ten.
