How many employees is Windows SBS 2003 R2 suitable for? When would you recommend a more robust solution?
Windows SBS 2003 R2 is targeted at businesses with up to 75 users or devices. When a business gets close to the upper limit of 75 users or devices, it’s time to consider moving to the standalone versions of the SBS product technologies: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, Exchange Server 2003 Standard Edition, and SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition. These solutions will run on midsize hardware (four processors, 4 GB RAM for Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition) and are capable of intricate Active Directory configuration and management functions.
