Random Question: What's the typical number of admin to user ratio at most companies? I'm trying to determine what's realistic as far as how many admins there should be if a company has say 100 user licenses.

I'm curious about this as well. Like actual Admins who do admin duties? We are 1:52

Totally unrelated follow up question for anyone who answers: On a scale of 1-10, how often do you feel like you're drowning with the workload?

We are 1:250 We have backup admins, but only one full time admin.

What does a backup admin look like?

They have admin role, but only use it when I'm out of office, or in some long meeting and an urgent task arises.

They are admins of several other SaaS.

We have three admins with around 250~ employees. One full time, one part time that does smaller tasks and one that mostly does larger projects/emergency issues here and there. As for drowning in work, yeah, we kind of exist in a perpetual state of 'prioritizing' issues and accepting that not everything can get done. YMMV 🤷

I'm the only admin with 170 users at present. One backup, but he is rarely called upon and really is there just in case of emergency.
And I'm not drowning at all (thankfully); in fact I'm often bored. I don't think we have a particularly complex instance, which helps, though our subsidiary structure gives me nightmares constantly (we have over 500 and over 1000 bank accounts).
