In my company we've been using Microsoft Communicator 2007 for IM for a few years now. We rely heavily on the Group Chat functionality and recently, we've run into a maximum of 10 people allowed in a chat at any given time. Now, we're being "told" by our IT admin that there is no way around that (he's being vague...) and its a licence issue.

My research is showing me that this may or may not be BS but I cannot be certain. Anyone have any insight into this?
 
You need to listen to your IT guy on this one. There is a limit, and it is based on licensing. To increase the limit, you may have to move to the new version which could cost your company hundreds of thousands of dollars (depending on how big it is).
 
Thanks. Bad news for us so I better get Openfire working soon.
 
dude...work WITH your IT admin...not around or against him

if you think that the max # of 10 needs to be increased, talk to management that writes checks and propose a case for change with them.
