I'm curious for those of you who started with more of a departmental solution with Clearspace (<250 employees) whether having the option to have purchased Clearspace on an appliance would have been interesting.  Some specific areas that I'm interested in are:

1) Would it have been easier for you to get up and running, or would you still have needed to heavily involve IT?

2) If you use other appliances do you require integrations? (With other enterprise systems or SSO)

Any other thoughts you have area great.  If there is enough interest in going deep I may form a group around it.

Thanks!
